ALL IN

If Christ Is Not Lord of All, He Is Not Lord at All

We’ve grown comfortable in the pews.
Entertained in the sanctuary.
Distracted in the soul.
We’ve mistaken activity for anointing.
Crowds for conversion.
Programs for power.

And Jesus is still standing outside the door knocking (Revelation 3:20).

We are the Church. Not just pastors. Not just platforms. Us.
We are the lampstand.
And Jesus warns us plainly: "Repent—or I will remove your lampstand from its place.” (Revelation 2:5)

That’s not poetry. That’s judgment.

The lampstand is His presence.
His power.
His authority.
Remove it—and what’s left is a hollow shell with lights on and no Light within.

We don’t need another revival service.
We need repentance.

Wake Up

Jesus says, “Wake up, and strengthen what remains…” (Revelation 3:2)
Why? Because what remains is dying.

Comfort is killing us.
We are spiritually drowsy in a world on fire.
Entertain me. Don’t confront me.
Feed me. Don’t challenge me.

Meanwhile, the world is drowning in sin and despair.
And the Church yawns.

You Are the Light

Jesus didn’t say, “The preacher is the light.”
He said, “You are the light of the world.” (Matthew 5:14)

But what good is light that’s hidden under a bushel of fear, compromise, and distraction?

Light exposes. Light guides. Light shines.
If it’s not shining, it’s not light.

Church, you are called to shine — not survive.
To pierce darkness — not entertain it.

You’re not supposed to blend in.
You’re supposed to stand out.

You Are the Salt

Jesus said, “You are the salt of the earth.” (Matthew 5:13)

Salt preserves. Salt purifies. Salt irritates wounds.
But if the salt loses its saltiness, it is worthless.

We’ve become saltless saints.
Afraid to speak truth.
Addicted to applause.
Comfortable with compromise.

We don’t confront sin anymore — we market around it.

We say things Jesus never said.
And ignore the things He emphasized.

But a Church that wants the crown without the cross
will soon lose both.

If Christ Is Not Lord of All…

Francis Schaeffer was right:

“If Christ is not Lord of all, then He is not Lord at all.”

Jesus doesn’t want a corner of your life.
He demands the whole house.

He doesn’t ask to be your Sunday focus.
He commands to be your life.

Not a hobby.
Not a life coach.
Not a religious add-on.

Lord. Of. All.

Every room. Every thought. Every word. Every relationship. Every dollar.

No Room for Lukewarm

Jesus didn’t die to make us nice.
He died to make us new.

He didn’t rise again to create lukewarm religious consumers.
He rose to raise disciples who burn with holy fire.

And He’s clear about lukewarm Christianity:

“Because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.” (Revelation 3:16)

Let that sink in:
Christ would rather deal with a rebel than a faker.

At least the rebel is honest.

The lukewarm Christian wears His name but not His nature.

This Is Personal

This isn’t about “that church down the street.”
This is about me.
This is about you.

He who has ears, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches (Rev. 2–3).
That means every believer.
No excuses. No hiding.

The lampstand doesn’t get removed because of poor leadership alone.
It gets removed because the people no longer burn.

You don’t need a mic to burn.
You just need fire.

Burn Again

Want to see revival? Start in the mirror.

Fall in love with Jesus again.
Return to your first love (Rev. 2:4).
Clean the altar of your heart.
Light the match.
Burn again.

Repent of lukewarmness.
Refuse compromise.
Reject passivity.

Open the door.
He’s knocking.

Wake-Up Call

This is the hour to wake up. (Romans 13:11)
This is the moment to shine. (Philippians 2:15)
This is the time to stand. (Ephesians 6:13)

The world is watching.
The lost are searching.
The King is returning.

We must not be caught asleep at the wheel.
Or busy building platforms instead of altars.

So What Now?

• Examine yourself (2 Corinthians 13:5).

• Get back to your first love (Revelation 2:4–5).

• Stop playing church and be the Church.

• Live holy. Speak truth. Carry fire.

• Make war against your own complacency.

• Join the remnant — not the crowd.

• Let Christ be Lord of everything — not just some things.

Because if Christ is not Lord of all —
He is not Lord at all.

And we don’t have time to play games.

It’s time to burn.
