Sermon Notes
Date: 10/14/2018
Preacher: Monty Simao, pastor
Series: Revelation
Key Text: Revelation 2:8-11
Description: Some of the poorest people are actually the richest… and some of the richest are the poorest.
Today on Scandia Bible Church Podcast, Pastor Monty Simao continues with our study in the book of Revelation and shows us that just as the world is not always as it seems, the city of Smyrna was not always as it seemed: Christians were being tortured and killed, and yet they were victorious and obtained the victor’s crown while eternal judgment awaited those in power who were wreaking havoc upon the church.
As Christians we are not promised to be rescued from life’s trials, but rather to persevere through them… and that God always knows and sees all that we are going through because of Him. And with that, He promises to those that are faithful and complete the race and overcome, that the Crown of Life awaits.
