Discuss Revelation 2 Page 16

In verse 4 the Ephesians did not simply forget the love they had at first, they left the love they had deliberately.

The Nicolas of Acts 6:5 is the pastor (angel) of the Nicolatians of Rev. 2:6. He evidently took his own name over the word 'Christians'.

v. 5; The true believers of Jesus Christ are the overcomers of this world. We are the overcomers. Read revelation 2:7,11,17,26; 3:5,12,21.

Praise The Lord Jesus Chirst.the way churches are today I am wondering if the bishops could not take up money would they even Preach today its like the word of Jesus is being Sold for Money and It not really about souls or Jesus .No one cares about the sick, the hurting , the children seems like these are the days where our harts have become Cold and there is No God in most things we do

Praise GOD the living GOD the great I AM........Father of JESUS CHRIST. The one who is worthy.

Y'all know your Stuff! Good comments.

Thyatira: Of all the spiritual sickness in todays church, this one stands out to me the most. Our country has opened its heart and literally doors to the Jezebel spirit.
"Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols."

PTL! It is sad to see the state some of the churches are in these last days. I had the opportunity to PREACH Rev. 2:1-5 The Pastor seem to be offended verse 5 Remove The Candlestick does not want to face truth of what the condition His church in. The verse "Remove the candlestick can mean different ways through chastie,death, removal pastor, church location! Please correct me if I Am wrong please

Not to mention, if you read all the good things about church at Ephesus, it's describing many churches. You find out that it's just playing at church ( Isaiah 29:13). Christ should be our first love and what is Christ, the Word. It's hard to find a church where the Word really gets taught anymore. Amos 8:11. Famine of the end times is hearing the Word of the Lord. Good pasture is leaving us.

In verse 4 the Ephesians lost the love they had at first. They didn't simply forget their love, they left he love deliberately.

THE GREATEST GIFT HAS BEEN GIVEN,FOR ALL TO ACCEPT, NO GREATER GIFT COULD EVER BE GIVEN ,PRAISE THE GOD OF ALL CREATION FOREVER AND EVER ,THANK YOU JESUS ,THANK YOU!!!

WITH THESE WORDS I SAY I HAVE BEEN TOUCHED AND GREATLY BLESSED.AMEN

I don't know about you but my first love is the Lord Jesus Christ. That's what is being said. You can love less anyone you want mother, father and sister or brother but when it comes to Christ He better be your first love. Got it!

Greeting,
This Ephesian church is where the first disciples used to assemble.They were the apostles, spiritual men, real saints, however they left their first love by mingling with Roman, Jews in their assembly.One example of that is the deeds of the Nicolaitans which God hate. We need only the Word in order to return to their faith, they are the fathers ( Malachi 4:5,6).Unleavened bread,the Word

Commit our ways unto the Lord Jesus, delight ourselves in Him and he will then direct our paths and give us joy and the desires of our hearts. Notice in 5he scriptures that God
Always have a reward for those who walk in Faith and Obedience!

The heavens declare the glory of the Lord and the firmament His handy work day unto day they speak of His splendor majesty and awesome knowledge. We worship you today Lord in the beauty of Your holiness. God is so good, faithful, loving and kind. He is so amazing, righteous and holy. He is powerful mighty and wonderful. Let everything that has breathe praise the Lord. We love you our King Jesus

If One Looses His/her First Love, Means The Degrading Of The Degree Of Relationship/companionship With God!!

Jesus started off by giving commendation to the congregation of Ephesus and then he gave them the counsel they needed.

Even as a parent loves his child and praises him for all his good, a godly parent will not sit back and compromise and allow his child to rebel and disobey him. A parent will correct the child's behavior..to an acceptable behavior. He loves the child but not the sin. Just as our heavenly Father sees and knows everything about us, as much as He loves us will not tolerate sin in our lives.

John speaks truth here. Also, both Psalms 12:6 7 along with Ecclesiastes 8:4, God the Father makes His obedient to know the 1611 King James version is pure and tried taking 7 years to translate. And give diligence to the "hidden" scripture or "Apocrypha" which is of Almighty God and makes the whole leavened: see Psalms 51:6, 1 Corinthians 2:7 and Revelation 2:17. Be blessed in Christ Jesus our LORD and SAVIOUR. Amen

This was a great message . I am in the house due to surgery and can't get to church , I enjoyed it .

I love to get back into the Living word of God the King of Kings Lord of Lords coming back to take us home father I am lost but I come to you for mercy lord I repent for I am a sinner ...Amen

The word 'apocrypha' means 'hidden.' -KJV Bible Team Proverbs 4:7 Wisdom is the principal thing therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding. 1 Corinthians 2:7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: Revelation 2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.

I believe that if we interlize Christ's message to each of these churches, we can grow and gain insight for ourselves. We may not deal with all of these issues, but if we're honest with ourselves, there are some areas in which we can improve on in our walk with Christ. We are living in a time in which it is vital to soul search. And I for 1, am returning to my first love, Jesus Christ.

This is very powerful.God is telling is people to repent and that we bring a lot of things on yourself because of our sins.He is I feel like talking to the church because so many people think they can hide behind Church Membership.We as Christian will go through many things but go tell us to listen what the spirit say to be faithful to the end.

Romans 2:28 For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: 29 But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter whose praise is not of men, but of God. Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, but thou art rich and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

think of us being the heavens and the earth so it'll make a lot more sense if you internalized it. that's if you have liberty.

Love and truth and them that are sealed by the word of God and His plan of salvation. Those sealed will be put in front of death and that is to say antichrist which means instead of Christ the false messiah false prophet Satan. That's who the elect are delivered up to but they can't be tempted in believing he is the CHRIST because they know it's Satans deception to deceiving the whole world.

He loves obedience more than sacrifice..and you cannot compromise with the Lord our God at all..he is true and righteous and desire that we be the same.

I am led to believe that the scripture that quote, "They say they are apostles found to be liars" which mean there are some real apostles today for the edifying of the "Body Of Christ" Ephesians 4:11. Blessed You!
