Is it possible to look spiritually alive on the outside but inwardly be spiritually dead? Are we masters of image management, looking spiritually vibrant while knowing that our hearts are far from God? This is the problem that Jesus confronted the Church of Sardis. We as American Christians face this same problem as well. What does this look like for us today? How do we truly change so we are inwardly alive in our relationship with Jesus? Let's learn from the Church at Sardis.

Prayer Grant now, heavenly Father, that the words of my mouth and the meditation of our hearts may be acceptable in your sight, O Lord, our strength and our redeemer. In Jesus’ name, amen.

두 본성 제1장 두 본성 이것은 구원받았음에도 불구하고 왜 죄를 계속해서 짓고있는지를 설명해 준다. 두 본성이란 무엇인가? 성경은 거듭난 하나님의 자녀에게 두 본성이 있다고 가르치 고있다. 자연적 출생으로받은전적으로악한본성과새로운출생 으로 받게 된, 새로운 본성 즉 전적으로 선하고 올바른 본성이 있 다.

Going inside to deal with the outside

The outward signs of following Jesus can be hypocritical but are useful, although they can also be distracting. The inward calls us to quiet trust in divine impulses, to identification with Jesus who suffered naked in a ritually impure place yet was utterly effective in saving the world.

And we learn that it is beneficial that we do this together with other spiritually-empowered people.

Every person has an inner battle that will ultimately be lost without Jesus.

Christian people should devote themselves to ardent prayer to God for their brothers and sisters in Christ.

Paul explains this in two different ways.
