Exercise Yourself Unto Godliness
We live in a culture inundated with an "instant" mentality and it should come as no surprise that it has spilled over into some of our spiritual expectations. Many believers have come to think that there must be an easy way to live godly; it simply is not so. Godliness requires exercise. In this message we delve into five very practical aspects of this exercise and one outstanding promise.

Stick to the Plan
Distraction, Diversion and Discrediting are all ways that are used to make followers of Jesus Christ deviate (go off course) from the plan that God has for their life. It is easy to get sidetracked and derailed by even good things. The goal of the believer must be to pursue the best thing, the plan that God has for them. Regarding following Christ we need to keep it simple and stick to the plan.

The Church of Pergamum: Revelation 2:12-27
The church at Pergamum, much like many of our American churches, was filled with three kinds of people: the faithful, the compromisers, and the people who didn’t know which group was correct. As the political capital of the region, emperor worship was at its zenith in Pergamum; it was the place where Satan had his throne. In this context, Jesus rebukes the faithful for tolerating people in their church who are both compromising and telling others that it is ok to compromise. He calls the church at Pergamum and us to confront sin, root it out, and fight it. Our Savior calls us to repent of everything that threatens us from knowing and experiencing the fullness of joy that he has come to offer.
