Sardis: A Church With a Name to Live, But Dead

Part of the Revelation series: Know What’s Next

What happens when Jesus examines a church?

In Revelation 3:1–6, Christ delivers one of the most searching messages in the Bible to the church at Sardis—a church with a reputation for life, yet declared spiritually dead. In this message, Pastor Bill Monroe explains Christ’s warning to watch, strengthen what remains, remember the truth, and repent.

The Lord also gives a promise to the overcomer: their name will never be blotted out of the Book of Life and will be confessed before the Father.
