Pastor Joseph Salajan Bio
Pastor Joe was born in the little town of Crasna (Romania). Ever since he was a child, he has been fascinated by the unique connection between pastors and their special book, the Bible. When at the age of 7 he received his first little Bible from a brave pastor who was able to procure it for him in spite of the interdictions of the communist regime, he felt special and decided one day he would become a pastor.
After serving as a Pastor for 8 years in Romania, in 2013 he immigrated to the USA. He currently serves as Lead Pastor of Plantation Seventh-day Adventist Church. Along with his wonderful wife Anda and their gorgeous daughter Alessandra, he enjoys proclaiming God’s grace and ministering to his fellows.
Pastor Joe is currently enrolled in a doctoral Program (DMin in Preaching) with Andrews University. His hobbies are languages, music, and poetry.

Imagine Jesus visiting Laodicea. He’s walking around in the heat of the day… He needs water! Can someone give Him water? What kind of water? Lukewarm water…! Jesus takes it…! I have you in my mouth… that’s the idea of (investigative) judgment: testing by tasting… He says: I wish you were either cold… or hot… (soup, tee, SPA); You’re lukewarm!

Then, the message continues:
The Transformation
Bar-timaeus, the son of Timaeus: wretched and miserable: poor, blind and naked! And he knows it! His name is deep with meaning: BAR means “son” – TIMAEUS has TWO possible meanings. In the Greek, it comes from the verb TIMAO, which means “to honor, or to value.” In the Hebrew, the word TAME, means “filth,” “trash,” or “pollution.”
Bar-Timaeus through his encounter with Christ is transformed from a son of filth, trash, or pollution into a son of honor and value. He moves from rags to riches…

You Aren't Rich
Laodicea’s story is different! He thinks he’s rich… (I have become wealthy (I enriched myself…) I need nothing… Jesus tells him: You don’t know…! You need counseling…!

Gold tried in fire: FAITH that works through Love, tried through adversities…. WHITE GARMENTS: Christ’s righteousness a spotless character. EYE-SALVE: Spirit-given discernment…
Don’t miss this: Jesus tells them they don’t have that what they believe they have!!!
Don’t miss this: Jesus tells them they don’t have that what they believe they have!!!
Before we get bugged down with our misery… Jesus moves on toward majesty… As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten (reprove and discipline - NAS). Therefore be zealous and repent. (Rev. 3:19 NKJ) Change your mind… that’s what it means to repent.
