Fear Not: The Real Story of Revelation | "Letters from Jesus: When Christ Speaks to His Church"
Christ's letters to the seven churches reveal a Savior who knows His people intimately. To Ephesus, He commends their discernment but mourns their diminished love. To Smyrna, He acknowledges their suffering but promises the crown of life. To each church, Jesus speaks words tailored to their situation, offering challenge and comfort. These letters remind us that Christ knows our congregation's strengths and struggles just as thoroughly. We'll explore how Jesus' ancient words to these churches speak directly to our modern context, calling us to renewed faithfulness, enduring love, and confident hope in His promises.

The revelation of Jesus Christ. Revelation 1:1


To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: These are the words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand and walks among the seven golden lampstands. I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked people, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false. You have persevered and have endured hardships for my name, and have not grown weary. Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first. Revelation 2:1-4
Ephesus had great doctrine but lost their first love.
Smyrna was poor but faithful. Jesus had no criticism.
Laodicea was comfortable and self-satisfied. Jesus called them lukewarm.
You have abandoned the love you had at first.
Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent, and do the works you did at first. Revelation 2:5b
Remember
Repent
Return
Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. Revelation 3:20
