Sermons About Remember
The Church of Sardis: Revelation 3:1-6
This church’s strength is its greatest weakness. This church has the reputation of being alive. However, this reputation has caused them to take their eyes off of Jesus and look to themselves. Jesus calls them to remember the message they received and heard. They were dead in their sins until Jesus came and lived a perfect life and shed his precious blood on their behalf on a roman cross to wash away their sins and clothe them in clean garments of his righteousness. He is the one who is alive and we only live, if we live, through him. All boasting must be in him and in what he has accomplished on the cross. This letter is a call for the church which bears the name Christian to need, love, and treasure Christ. We need to wake up from our delusional self-reliance, and remember when Jesus was our only hope. Remember that you are dead and you need Jesus and the Holy Spirit, which he alone can give, to make you alive.

A Walk to Remember
Some say he was a good man. Some say he was just a teacher. Some say he had paranormal powers. Some say he was a myth. Some say he was the Son of God. A lot of people say a lot of things about Jesus. But who is he really, and what relevance does a man who lived 2000 years ago have on us today? In the midst of the chaotic holiday season, the story of Jesus seems to get lost in the hustle and bustle. But if you listen; if you really quiet your soul and listen, he is calling out to you. He is asking you the same thing he asked his disciples to do: "Follow Me." That's it. But that will cost you everything. Join us as we journey through the life of Jesus from Nazareth to Calvary.

The Church in Ephesus: Revelation 2:1-7
The letter to the Ephesians in Revelation begins with a commendation. Jesus commends the Ephesians for their doctrinal purity. They have fought false teachings and have remained faithful to the truth without growing weary and giving up. Yet, though they have remained doctrinally pure, they have ceased to be faithful witnesses for Jesus because they lost her first love for Jesus. Jesus calls them to remember the depths of their sin and how much they have been forgiven. Some of us are like the prodigal son or the sinful woman in Luke 7, and we know we have been saved from a life of sin. We have been overwhelmed by his grace, but over time, the memory fades and we grow prideful and self-reliant. For others of us, the danger is that we have never had a sinful woman experience. We may not have ever felt desperate, out of control, absolutely empty, and needy. Our savior walks among his people and he sees them all. He will forgive us if we will stop trying to be perfect and simply fall at his feet and beg him for mercy. Run to the one who, though his face shown like the sun, willingly took on flesh to die on the cross in our place.

Perspective On Time
If you keep on living, you grow old. Eventually, everyone dies. However, not everyone grows old or dies in the same way. Christ-followers are exhorted to let the reality of a transitory life, transform the way they live.
