26.13 The King is Coming - The Revelation of Jesus Christ - The Church in Smyrna (Part 3)

As we launch into today's episode of Indigenous Faith, Craig continues to share the remarkable experience he had in 2009 when he died in an emergency room in Santa Fe, New Mexico.  But he didn't stay dead, instead, the doctors pushed blood and fluids back into him and got his heart started again.  As amazing as that medical intervention was, there was a much greater intervention, and that was Craig's experience as he passed through death's door only to return by the miraculous hand of Almighty God!  And that experience alone has dramatically affected his life since then.  Where was Jesus at the point of death?  Craig unpackages that important reality that, for him, helped faith overcome fear in the most horrific part of his traumatic experience in the Miracle at Mile Marker 313.  From there, the Smiths continue through the text they are teaching from and address what Revelation 2:9 spoke about pertaining to the false Jews who were Jews by name only, yet were more aligned with Satan's side than God's.  And the church in Smyrna had to deal with that reality.  From there, Craig begins to unpackage what the Scriptures said about Smyrna, that while they were in poverty, yet at the same time they were incredibly prosperous.  The actual word Jesus used was they were rich!  In fact, richer than many kings and powerful leaders who had wealth untold.  And this is where this episode makes an unexpected turn as Craig presents a very interesting way he defines the false teaching of the health and wealth prosperity gospel found in modern Christianity, and as seen on many Christian television programs.  He actually goes as far as to call those who preach this false gospel, Christianity's Medicine Men and Medicine Women!  What does he mean by that!?  You'll just have to stay tuned for this very unique and stunning episode of Indigenous Faith!  Get ready for some amazing moments ahead with Craig and LaDonna Smith and their Indigenous Faith teaching!
