How to Kill a Church
​​Two-week series: How to Kill a Church and How to be a Vibrant Church
Rev​elation​ 3​:16, Matt​hew​ 23
The book of Revelation begins with John being caught up in the Spirit on the Lord's day. He goes on to speak about seven churches saying to one, "you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will spit you out of my mouth." What a word! As Pilgrim has been on a revitalization journey and Immanuel is considering joining us, it's important to understand the enemy within that wants to destroy the church so we'll look at How to Kill a Church in seven easy steps and ​next week​ How to be a Vibrant Church.
