“Being a loving church, being a loving Christian, is no excuse for accepting false teaching. That’s Jesus’s point here. It’s what he said, not me. It’s what he says in the text: ‘I have this against you.’ Being loving, doing good works? Not enough. We have to guard the truth that’s been entrusted to us.” — Mez McConnell
In this sermon from Revelation 2:18-28, Mez McConnell preaches on Jesus’s stern message to the church of Thyatira and the need to guard the truth. The Church must reject the lie that being a loving Christian means accepting false teaching.
