The Letter to Smyrna
Revelation 2:8-11
Sermon Notes:
Suffering is Standard:
1) The Background
2) The Cause
3) Their Expectations
4) Our Implications
Reflection Questions:
1) What areas of life are most tempting to have guaranteed peace with the world? Politics, culture, school friends, co-workers, classmates, teammates, children, spouse…?
2) How might the contemporary church be failing or succeeding in hearing and keeping the words written to Smyrna?
3) What parts of being a disciple of Christ might need the most support and encouragement in order to be able to be faithful and keep the words of our Lord?
