A WORD TO THE MAORI PEOPLE
Revelation 3.2
(A sermon by Mr Chatterton at Te Arai.)
These words were written by John to the Church of Sardis. In the time of John, Sardis was a large and wealthy town. The people of the Church in Sardis were very important, but what is the town like now? The glory has departed, it is now a small and dirty place, the people are poor and there is no Christian Church. Why did this place and people disappear? Because they did not listen to the word of God.
