If you grew up in evangelical Christianity, you’ve probably heard Revelation 3:10 cited as proof of a pre-tribulation rapture. But what if that popular interpretation actually misses Jesus’ point? In this conversation, we unpack what Christ truly promised the church in Philadelphia—and why His words offer something far more encouragin...
In this episode of The Cutting Room Floor, we follow-up our study of Revelation 3:1-6 and Jesus' sharp rebuke of the church in Sardis, which begs us to wrestle with this very important question: What is the relationship between saving faith and deeds? Can you have one without the other? Join us as we press into Jesus’ warning — and discover what it truly means to have a genuine, saving faith.

Join us for a new episode of From the Cutting Room Floor, where Pastor Brian responds to your questions from his sermon, The Apocalypse: Faithful Living in Satan’s City, based on Revelation 2:12–17.

Take a few minutes to go deeper into Jesus’ letter to the church in Pergamum and what it means for faithful living today.
What does Jesus mean by the “synagogue of Satan”? Why is the church in Smyrna told it will face persecution for “ten days”? And does Revelation 2:8–11 in any way justify antisemitism?

This week on From the Cutting Room Floor, Pastor Brian tackles your questions from Sunday’s message on Revelation 1:9-20, The Apocalypse: Awe That Transforms. Revelation is "canonical capstone." What does that mean? And how does that help us understand Revelation 1:9-20 and its relationship to Daniel 7? What's the strategy behind our "seven friends?" Why not just say "seven churches"? Join Pastor Brian as he unpacks these questions and guides us to see them through the truth of Scripture.

What does the Bible mean when it says “the time is near”—even though it’s been 2,000 years? And if Revelation’s prophecies can happen in different ways throughout history, how do we know what’s a real fulfillment and what’s just coincidence? Pastor Brian will be addressing both of these questions in this week’s Q&A episode—digging into God’s timing, prophecy, and how to hold on to hope when waiting feels long.
