Episode Synopsis

As Jesus continues His evaluation of the seven churches in Asia, He comes to two very different congregations.  With Sardis there was almost nothing good to say.  They had a reputation of being alive but they were dead.   Jesus warns them to wake up, to be watchful and repent.   The one positive was that there were at Sardis those who would walk with Him "in white, for they are worthy."  Meanwhile with Philadelphia, there was nothing bad to say, so Jesus spends His time encouraging them.  He talks about how they had a little strength yet they had kept His words and not denied His name.    Because of their perseverance, Jesus was going to spare them from the trial God was sending "to test those who dwell on the earth."To see David Hicks on YouTube, click here.
