Hold Fast In A World of Compromise - Pergamos

This powerful message on holding fast in a world of compromise explores the message Jesus gave to the church of Pergamos in Revelation. Discover how this ancient city—filled with pagan temples and Caesar worship—created intense spiritual pressure on believers, yet some remained faithful even unto death. Learn why Jesus described Pergamos as 'where Satan has his throne' and what that means for Christians living in spiritually hostile environments today. This message examines how compromise subtly enters through doctrine, culture, entertainment, and relationships, and provides biblical strategies to recognize and resist it. Understand the dangerous teachings Jesus identified—the doctrine of Balaam and the Nicolaitans—and their modern equivalents that threaten spiritual growth. The message unpacks Jesus' solution to compromise: genuine repentance that changes both thinking and direction. Explore the three remarkable promises Jesus offers to those who overcome: hidden manna, a white stone, and a new name. This teaching includes practical application questions to help identify areas of compromise in your own life and steps to align more fully with Christ. Perfect for Christians struggling with cultural pressure, those seeking spiritual revival, or anyone wanting to understand how to live with integrity in a compromising world.
