First Baptist Church Wimberley Sermons

Continuing in our study of the seven churches in Revelation, today's message is on the Church in Thyatira. They definitely had moral problems which we address, but the things they had going for them were their love, faith, service, and endurance. Give it a listen and let the Spirit of God speak to you, just as He did these seven churches.

Revelation 2:12-17 deals with the church of Pergamum, a church that had a problem of compromise. In this message you will see how we are not to compromise on the big issues of our orthodoxy. When we do, it never happens all at once, but in incremental steps. We must avoid going down the road of compromise if we are to be a church that is pleasing to the Lord.

Here's a message for the church about standing strong in the midst of suffering and remaining faithful to the Lord. Join Pastor Steve for his sermon on the church of Smyrna, one of the seven churches in the book of Revelation.

Glad you've joined us in this first message on a series about the churches in Revelation. Today we look into the church in Ephesus, Revelation 2:1-7. And from our study today we learn that Jesus wants us to return to our first love. To do this calls for getting our priorities straight and leaning into spiritual renewal.

Jonah was given the same command twice, once in chapter 1 and again in chapter 3. The first time he let his own agenda and preconceived ideas get in the way of God's perfect plan. But he didn't make the same mistake the 2nd time around, this time joining in God's mission to redeem a city.

We celebrated the Lord's Supper today as Pastor Steve demonstrated what Jesus did for us, and why remembering His sacrifice of Himself on the cross is so important for all of us.

God will give us a fresh start if we'll cooperate with Him and do what He says. We have to think in terms of realigning some things in our life. Listen as Pastor Steve teaches from Psalm 40 in today's message.

Simeon's life was marked by righteousness and devotion, defined by his hope in the promised and coming Messiah. In this message, Sean Sivils discusses how Simeon eagerly waited for Messiah to come and rescue Israel, and how Simeon was led by the Holy Spirit. There were a lot of qualities of this man of God that we would do well to imitate. Merry Christmas, everyone!
