The Dangerous Doctrine Invading the Church

In this sermon from Revelation 2:18–29, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson examines Christ's message to the church in Thyatira and explains what it truly means for believers to "rule the world." Rather than advancing God's kingdom through political power or cultural dominance, Scripture points to a different path—personal holiness, faithfulness to Christ, and perseverance in the gospel.Walking through Christ's rebuke of the church's tolerance of "Jezebel," this message warns against spiritual compromise, worldliness, and idolatry while calling Christians to overcome through the power of the new birth and ongoing sanctification. Believers are encouraged to reject the world's values, remain steadfast in obedience, and trust Christ, who alone reigns over the nations and will one day share His kingdom with those who faithfully endure to the end.
