In His letter to the church in Ephesus, Jesus affirms the church's hard work, doctrinal soundness, and moral convictions, but issues a sobering warning: they have abandoned their first love. The sermon argues that Christian life cannot be reduced to religious activity or service done for God. The totality of the Christian experience is knowing God and being known by Him. When believers drift from that intimate relationship into mere duty, Jesus calls them back through three steps — remember, repent, and repeat — so the flame of the Holy Spirit is never extinguished.
