THE WHOLE CONCLUSION FROM THE WORD OF GOD: REPENT
Ecclesiastes 12:13
[13]Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.
Matthew 19:16-17
[16]And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?
[17]And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
1 John 3:4
[4]Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law.
Revelation 12:17
[17]And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

I have only seen in the movement of African descent that the promise of YaHUaH is only for them.

The 2nd chapter of Revelation is well related with the 2nd prophetic book Jeremiah:

Ephesus - first love:
[Revelation 2:4 KJV]
Nevertheless I have [somewhat] against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.

[Jeremiah 2:2 KJV]
Go and cry in the ears of Jerusalem, saying, Thus saith the LORD; I remember thee, the kindness of thy youth, the love of thine espousals, when thou wentest after me in the wilderness, in a land [that was] not sown.

[Jeremiah 2:25 KJV]
Withhold thy foot from being unshod, and thy throat from thirst: but thou saidst, There is no hope: no; for I have loved strangers, and after them will I go.

[Jeremiah 2:33 KJV]
Why trimmest thou thy way to seek love? therefore hast thou also taught the wicked ones thy ways.

Thyatira - searching trying the heart and the reins, and dashing the pottery in pieces, refusing to repent:
[Revelation 2:23 KJV]
And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

[Jeremiah 17:1 KJV]
The sin of Judah [is] written with a pen of iron, [and] with the point of a diamond: [it is] graven upon the table of their heart, and upon the horns of your altars;

[Jeremiah 17:5 KJV]
Thus saith the LORD; Cursed [be] the man that trusteth in man, and maketh flesh his arm, and whose heart departeth from the LORD.

[Jeremiah 17:9 KJV]
The heart [is] deceitful above all [things], and desperately wicked: who can know it?

[Jeremiah 17:10 KJV]
I the LORD search the heart, [I] try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, [and] according to the fruit of his doings.

[Revelation 2:27 KJV]

And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.

[Jeremiah 18:2 KJV]
Arise, and go down to the potter's house, and there I will cause thee to hear my words.

[Jeremiah 18:3 KJV]
Then I went down to the potter's house, and, behold, he wrought a work on the wheels.

[Jeremiah 18:4 KJV]
And the vessel that he made of clay was marred in the hand of the potter: so he made it again another vessel, as seemed good to the potter to make [it].

[Jeremiah 19:10 KJV]
Then shalt thou break the bottle in the sight of the men that go with thee,

[Jeremiah 19:11 KJV]
And shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Even so will I break this people and this city, as [one] breaketh a potter's vessel, that cannot be made whole again: and they shall bury [them] in Tophet, till [there be] no place to bury.

[Jeremiah 19:11 KJV]
And shalt say unto them, Thus saith the LORD of hosts; Even so will I break this people and this city, as [one] breaketh a potter's vessel, that cannot be made whole again: and they shall bury [them] in Tophet, till [there be] no place to bury.

[Revelation 2:21 KJV]
And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.

[Jeremiah 44:5 KJV]
But they hearkened not, nor inclined their ear to turn from their wickedness, to burn no incense unto other gods.

[Jeremiah 44:16 KJV]
[As for] the word that thou hast spoken unto us in the name of the LORD, we will not hearken unto thee.

[Jeremiah 44:23 KJV]
Because ye have burned incense, and because ye have sinned against the LORD, and have not obeyed the voice of the LORD, nor walked in his law, nor in his statutes, nor in his testimonies; therefore this evil is happened unto you, as at this day.

[Jeremiah 44:27 KJV]
Behold, I will watch over them for evil, and not for good: and all the men of Judah that [are] in the land of Egypt shall be consumed by the sword and by the famine, until there be an end of them.

By the past, I mean before the time of John when he received the revelation.

Y’all are accepting KJV insertion of the word “Church (which did not exist at that time). The word is Ekkeisa which means called out assembly. You’re teachings would benefit from start using the correct words and not just going with the deceived crowds words.

[HannahB]

So how do you become " the church of philadelphia"?

[adipe]

the seven churches are not mentioned after the rapture anticipated in chapter 4. the laodiceea church is a type for the end time apostasy which is best described as post modernism, emergent church etc. BUT that's not to say that people from the other admonished churches can't be apostates.

[JQMurrell]

I feel like the nicolation reference with the Church of Ephesus may have to do with those who also see the main main Church denominations with large heads of authority, no longer to be brothers in Christ.
I feel like this happens in some denominations, like with the Hebrew Roots type movements, Where we become so enthralled with wanting to Do the perfect works of God as perfectly as possible, But then because we don't agree with other denominations teachings, it causes some to look at other Christian dominations as though they are not even followers of Jesus anymore. But I don't think that's true. They're just followers at a different place in their walk, just like we all have been at some point! And something has not been taught to them in a way that they can make sense of correct teachings of the scripture, because they're so surrounded by false perception!

The reason I believe this to be at least partially the case for this particular Revelations Church reference, is because over the past year I have sought the Lord very wholeheartedly, with all my heart and soul and mind and strength. And in that time the Lord has told me many times to return to my first love, and so it's taken me back to this particular reference a lot! However, the Messianic walk is the walk that I have been seeing myself go down more and more as I learn more about who God is, and learning the scriptures, putting all the puzzle pieces together.

Recently, in light of that, I was asking God whether or not I was following the right teachings are putting myself amongst the right groups of people For Fellowship,
❤and he gave me a prophetic dream That was a little bit similar to Simon Peter's dream about not calling a thing unclean which God had made clean, referring to his other gentile brethren.
And in this dream, what I woke up taking away from it as to the meaning, was that I should not segregate myself from other Christians entirely, thinking that they are not Brothers.
The point being that amongst Christian Brothers, not all denominations have false doctrine, they just have misunderstanding about correct interpretation and have not been revealed the same Revelation at the same time that others have.

So the Lord God does not want us to make enemies of one another amongst the body of Christ, When we can keep those conversations going to try to teach those who are stray or under false supposition about what the Lord teaches. We are to be a light to one another, encourage each other and educate one another on proper teachings of the whole Bible, Like Christ and his Apostles did. And we are supposed to love our brothers, no matter what level of understanding and level of following after God they are at. We have to keep encouraging one another so that we stay on the path!

❤Jesus Christ also told Simon Peter to love all of his brethren even if they were not following him as closely as the apostles were. That some people would not choose to follow Christ closely and do his ways, until the very last minute before his second coming!

So, I guess because the Holy Spirit has revealed to me, that I'm kind of in this camp right now in my life, I have repented of a lot of other things, (And still have a lot to learn and work on) but this is a particular challenge for me to be accepting of where others are in their walk with Christ, without thinking that they are stupid/ ignorant in some way. (Which, as we know, will also get us put before the Divine council and potentially thrown into hell Fire and brimstone!) But I know that This is not true of others, because we are all simply students of his truth, and we all will make sense of things At different times. And the Lord God will help us as long as we seek him. We simply have to be patient with each other's learning processes, and continue to strengthen and edify and encourage and love one another.


I have found the most helpful thing is to ask God to teach me specific things and answer specific questions for me when those questions arise. And to help me work uncertain fruits of the spirit.
When I do that, I notice very quickly the Holy spirit working in my life to bring those things to me, because I am truly seeking them, And want to change anything about myself that is not pleasing to him. So I want him to help develop me.

But, what of those in Laodicea? They’re described as comfortable, aren’t they?

[rainyday]

It might surprise you that those churches you mention that are not address, are indeed addressed. You just need to pay attention. For example, in Colossians, what church is mentioned in this book?

[Mel]

My understanding is that Laodicea was known for its therapeutic waters - hot and cold both have therapeutic value but lukewarm water does not - they weren't useful for the kingdom

[ronievillarias]

This is just my personal interpretation of the 7 lampstands. .i believe that the 7 lampstands does not stands for the actual churches of asia.. But of the 7 continents of the world... It is not possible that GOD will be sending his final words to 7 actual churches only.. It should be to the whole world and humanity... One view i could sight is the church smyrna which refers to africa as it says.. "you are afflicted and poor"..to sardis as australia for it says"you have a reputation of being alive"it may be because of the vast wildlife of australia...thyatira which i believe is asia..for it says "i will your children with plague"and we all know about the corona which started at asia...and the laodicea which i believe north america for it says " because you say im rich i have become wealthy and need nothing..and the philadelphia as the antartica which says " you have limited strenght.. I will also keep you from the hour of testing that is going to come over the whole world"..the ephesus where the pope is in europe the bible says."know your works and labor and that you cannot tolerate evil"and the pergamum which i believe the south america which says "i know where you live.. Where satans throne is"i remember seeing a clip where they found out that there was a temple of satan built somewhere in columbia? Correct me if im wrong.. Pls try reading revelations. As we can compare our interpretations.

The Holy Spirit, or power of the Almighty is a “he”? I’m searching, and listening.
It’s difficult since the Hebrews never, ever stated they had any belief in more than one Elohim, Theos or GOD, depending on whether or not you’re in Hebrew, Greek or English. Polytheism wasn’t part of any information from Yahweh.
