Wake Up

We don’t know much about the Church of Sardis itself.. Who led it or who it’s members were. Unlike the church of Ephesus we don’t have a letter written to them, or hear of the church in the book of Acts. One thing we do know is of a man named Melito of Sardis, an elder of the Church but he lived about a century later from when this letter would be given to Sardis.. Though we will come back to Melito, so Remember his name. Although we do not know much of Sardis the Church, we do know plenty about Sardis the Ancient City.. Sardis is located to the South and slightly to the East of Thyatira. Sardis was situated at the junction of five roads and was an active commercial city. At one point, Sardis had once been the capital of Lydia, a very wealthy nation, and gold was even found in the river near the city. It was was fortified on a steep cliff with perpendicular rock walls which provided a natural citadel. Thus the city was deemed impervious to attack.Support the showFind us at!
