Sardis
All in all, Sardis was a very comfortable, but unexciting place to live. They were a fortified city. Difficult to attack. Nearly impenetrable. Or so they thought...
The city was conquered, and we learn it is more important to BE something rather than to SEEM like something. Watch becoming overconfident, proud, arrogant, or apathetic.
They seemed like a church that was alive. But God doesn’t call us to “seem.” He calls us to be. . . And to be prepared for His return.
Revelation 3:1-6 (NLT)
