Myth—God Owns Solid Rock

Seven Signs Of A Satanic Church!

1. Church is unfaithful to God’s Word. 2. Church does not preach God’s Word.

3. Church preaches social messages v. Word. 4. Church gives lip service to God’s Word.

5. Church focuses on the things of men.

6. Church focuses on things of the world. 7. Church has merchants inside or outside.

There are many warnings God has given the Christian church. To fully understand the different churches and God’s warnings to them, you need to study Revelation chapters 1-3. You will find instructions for every

church that now exists from God and His Son. You will find a church guide.

“Yet you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes. They will walk with me … He who overcomes

will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the book of life, but will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angels.” Rev. 3:4-5 NIV

Go ahead and locate your own church in Revelation chapters 1-3 and

find its strengths and weaknesses. In the message to the church at Sardis, Christ states that some people within the church are already dressed in white and listed in his Book of Life. Christ then makes note that there is still time for others in the church to join them. Maybe you? Hence the instruction “If

you overcome like those already dressed in white.” It is obvious that the congregation of the Sardis church is not condemned as a group. God has some people in that church as He has in all the others. Therefore, God will deal with us on an individual basis. The truth of who is closer to God or

Satan actually looks like the graphic below. Those closer to God will have His knowledge and a deep love for Him in a passionately loyal heart.
