This sermon addresses Jesus’ message to the church of Sardis, exposing the danger of being a church in name only—alive in appearance but spiritually dead within. The pastor vividly traces church history from the Reformation to the present, showing how once-vibrant movements grew complacent when they ceased to rely on the Holy Spirit’s power and the Word of God. The message challenges believers to wake up, examine their faith, and return to Spirit-filled, prayer-driven, Scripture-centered living as the coming of the Lord draws near.
