Whoever Has Ears, Let Them Hear Part 2—by Justin Renton
June 27, 2023
Sermon summary:
Revelation 2:8-11 Jesus had no criticism for the church in Smyrna. He knew their misery and hardship and commended them for being rich spiritually. We freak out when people say horrible things about the church. They were warned about the upcoming challenges they would face, and encouraged to persevere. It is tempting to compromise, but Jesus's sword will cut down all your excuses.
Watch the full service here (the sermon starts at 39 mins)
God covers our shame with grace and righteousness, calling us to extend that same love, mercy, and practical care to the vulnerable and become agents of His covering.
A lesson about prayer, how our prayers come before God like bowls of incense.
Biblical justice calls us to more than punishment—it demands mercy, righteousness, and action. See others as loved by God and help the voiceless thrive.
