The revelation of Jesus Christ to VII churches in Asia Minor (modern day Turkey)
These VII churches weren’t just churches in Asia Minor, ironically these churches are found in every city in the United States.
COMMENDATION: This is what you are doing well.
CORRECTION: This is what you need to change.
COUNSEL: This is how you need to change it.
CONSEQUENCE: This is the punishment or reward.
Revelation 1:4a NLT
“This letter is from John to the SEVEN CHURCHES in the province of ASIA…”
“This letter is from John to the SEVEN CHURCHES in the province of ASIA…”
Revelation 13a : NLT
“And standing in the MIDDLE of the LAMPTANDS was someone like the SON OF MAN…
“And standing in the MIDDLE of the LAMPTANDS was someone like the SON OF MAN…
Our view of JESUS will determine our approach to and worship of JESUS.
Revelation 13b : NLT
“He was wearing a long robe with a gold sash across his chest.
“He was wearing a long robe with a gold sash across his chest.
Pray like it all depends on Him and work like it all depends on us.
The world is looking for instant impact but God sees patient endurance.
Never compromise the truth and confront those who distort the truth.
Character & competence are created in the crucible of suffering.
It’s possible to like church yet not love Jesus.
It is possible to fall in love with the PROCESS rather than the PRODUCT
You can’t love others without staying in love with Jesus.
Revelation 5a
Look how far you have fallen…!
Look how far you have fallen…!
GOOD ENOUGH is the chief enemy of the mission
Revelation 5b NLT
Turn back to me and do the works you did at first. If you don’t repent, I will come and remove your lampstand from its place among the churches.
Turn back to me and do the works you did at first. If you don’t repent, I will come and remove your lampstand from its place among the churches.
REPENT & RETURN…. Go back to the WHY
God’s PROSPERITY and His Spirit’s MANIFESTATION in our church must never distract us from WHY we became a church.
