The Enemy Around You - Part 1

The enemy isn't just within our hearts, but actively working around us through cultural and spiritual forces that seek to undermine our faith. Drawing from Jesus's letters to the seven churches in Revelation, we're reminded that the early church faced tribulation, persecution, and even dwelling 'where Satan's throne is' in Pergamum. Yet Jesus commended them for not tolerating evil and remaining faithful even unto death. We must become serious students of Scripture, understand our history, and recognize deception when partial truths are twisted into lies. The answer isn't political activism alone, but genuine revival starting with each of us humbling ourselves, praying, seeking God's face, and turning from sin. The time for passive Christianity has passed; we're called to be bold witnesses in a world desperately needing the gospel.
