Power in the Name (Continued)

Revelation 2:12-17. Comment: When a King of a Nation marries a wife she becomes the Queen! The Greek name “Pergamos”, means “Married to Power.” The new queen only has power because she is married to the King! Most of the world wants to have power! Political power! Financial power! Military power! Religious power! Why? Mostly to dominate and control other people! My Bible says his church his bride is married to Christ!That gives us power! Power not to bring people into bondage and slavery but to free people from the bondages of sin! Has the church had abuses with it’s power? Yes! Jesus is very careful who he gives power to! Knowing man has the potential for using his power for his own gain at the sacrifice of people he is very selective with his power! No mortal is perfect and God understands this as their creator! The Church at Pergamos was married to Christ! Jesus commends them for holding fast to their faith even though Satan’s seat was very close to them! Much about the mission field is walking into Hell and delivering captives from the fire! Our three years in India enabled us to experience this! The fire is all around you yet not burned! Mission work is a fiery furnace experience! Antipas a member of this church was martyred yet they kept their faith in Christ! However Jesus was disappointed in some church members who held unto the Doctrine of Balaam? This caused some members to commit fornication! Some church members clung to the Doctrine of the Nicolaitans! You cannot be married to Christ and Satan at the same time! You must divorce one and marry the other! Jesus asked them to repent or he would fight against them with the sword of his mouth! That is judgment would come to them according to his Word! So 21 centuries later what Doctrines in the American church oppose the Word of God? The Doctrine of Darwinism! That is atheism! Evolution! The Doctrine of Socialism! Founded by Marx, Engel, Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mussolini and others who were all followers of Darwin! Homosexual’s, lesbian’s and transgenders are Doctrines that oppose the Word of God! The list goes on but the more obvious examples! Do not forget drug use with 73000 casualties last year here in America! How about abortion! The casualties are millions yet if we stay married to Christ and not to the prostitutes of our culture Christ will carry the day for us! Jesus holds all power for good and he will and does have the last say because he is God! All judgment is rendered unto him yesterday, today and forever! James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
