​Our 2nd Lenten video looks at the church of Smyrna. Smyrna was an important, beautiful port city. This thriving city was known for its beauty, wealth, and achievement. It rivaled nearby Ephesus in grandeur and influence. But it was also a place of considerable persecution for early Christians. Thus, the Lord urges the church to remain faithful during troubling times. His message for this church highlights the vital importance of endurance and perseverance. It is easy to follow when things are wonderful; but we dare not walk away when times get tough. We remain faithful, because God is faithful. In Matthew, Jesus says that "he who endures to the end shall be saved." (24:13). So do not give up, and do fear not the things of this world or the potential ways that we “are about to suffer” even, if God calls, to “be faithful unto death." Ultimately, the Lord is with us. We are rich in Him; and He will give us the crown of life!
