Revelation: The church in Laodicea

Preacher: Rev Graham Fryer

Verses: Revelation 3: 14-22

Beloved … when one thinks about discipline or being disciplined … two very different thoughts can come to mind … for many discipline is difficult … its often harsh … and can be considered unfair. And for others discipline brings growth … maturity … responsibility … it refines … and it teaches the believer to persevere. Dr Burk Parsons says, “The older I get, the more I wish my father had disciplined me more than he did, and the more I grow in Christ, the more I pray for my heavenly Father's loving discipline. When we are immature we see discipline as a negative thing, but as we grow, we begin to see it as one of the most enduring blessings of life.
