There are genuine born again Christians in the church represented by Sardis..... but most are nominal brought in by the state religions and a large number of denominations that are Christian organizations whose membership does not require regeneration. That is why the Lord said they have a name that is living but in reality are dead.
We should care for the Lords assessment of that situation and seek to be counted worthy of being an overcomer.
