Hold On, I'm Coming

In this message we celebrate how our church can’t be neatly labeled “traditional” or “contemporary” but is defined by its love, faith and service. Drawing on the letter to Thyatira in Revelation, we’re reminded that cultural relevance and compromise—like tolerating a “prophetess” who leads us astray—undermine our true calling. Rather than pleasing people, we’re here to worship and obey God, holding fast to Scripture even amid hardship. Jesus warns that compromise can lead to judgment but promises that those who persevere will share in His authority, shepherding with His “iron rod.” Finally, He offers the “morning star”—His own presence—as a reward to every faithful witness.
