Evening — June 19 — Revelation 3

“To the angel of the church in Sardis write: These are the words of the One who holds the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars. I know your deeds; you have a reputation for being alive, yet you are dead. — Revelation 3The Laodicean church was called to buy from Christ gold refined in the fire. That gold is genuine faith, tested and proven. Don't be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes. The testing of your faith produces steadfastness, and it's more precious than gold that perishes. The refiner's fire burns away the dross so that only what's real remains.
