Willingdon Church Sermons|A Portrait of the Faithful Church Episode
No local church of Jesus ever sets out to be unfaithful. Every church wants to be commended by Jesus in the final day. Reading through Revelation 2 and 3, we see that Jesus will judge his church. Some things are commended, some are not. Today we will get a portrait of a faithful church, so that we can order our lives accordingly.
A. The key balance of the faithful church
1. Oppose doctrines added to scripture
2. Promote a spirit of biblical love
B. What happens when we get out of balance
1. Minor matters become the main thing
2. The wrong people are put into leadership
3. Ignorance gets combined with arrogance
C. What happens when we stay in balance
1. We understand the proper application of scripture
2. The gospel remains the main thing
