Sermons About Sin
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.

Idolatry
My aim this evening is to try and get us to both see and feel the sinfulness of sin. Many times we acknowledge in our minds that sin is wrong, but I wonder if we grasp how offensive it is to God - & therefore how angry God is with us. We usually fall on the side of his LOVE and think he would never get cross with us – but just say “Dear, dear, never mind, I forgive you” A friend used to say that God is always bound to forgive – for that’s his job! But is that right?

The Path that Leads to Life
Wide is the Gate that leads to Destruction and narrow the road that leads to life. You and i have a choice to make every day which path we will choose. We make decisions to follow God or follow our own desires. Is your life on the path to destruction or on the path that leads to life? Jesus Christ is the only way to find the path that leads to life.
