In the letter to the church in Philadelphia in Revelation 3:7-13, we read the second of two letters that contains only praise and encouragement from Jesus for the church. Although the church in Philadelphia looked weak, it was actually strong, because it had done the one simple thing that all churches and all Christians must do: keep Christ’s word. Jesus’ instruction to them (and to us) was correspondingly simple: hold on to what you have.
Was the incarnation of the Son of God really necessary, and if so why?
The Lord desires worship in spirit and truth. He calls wayward sinners to repentance and cleansing of their sins through the blood of Jesus.
Three simple but expansive habits will contribute to the Christian’s happiness.
