When Tolerance is Bad

7 CHURCHES IN REVELATION series (Part 4 of 7)
When Tolerance is Bad

We are continuing our sermon series on the letters that Jesus wrote to 7 different churches in the book of Revelation. One of the things that can keep us from shining our light for Jesus is something that sounds good at first, and that’s tolerance. Tolerance is something that is of course the right attitude to have in many situations: we need to give each other grace. However, we are also not to turn a blind eye to sin, and ignore a sin. This passage shows us that even though in some circumstances tolerance is a good thing, when it comes to sin issues, it is destructive and can spread like a disease.
