“Hear What the Spirit Says unto the Churches” # 2 Revelation 2:18-22

TRANSCRIPT

Date: September 21, 2022 Author: Wayne J. Edwards

Dear Heritage Family, Have you ever wondered why the book of Revelation begins with seven letters from the Lord Jesus to seven specific churches in Asia? While each letter was concerning the spiritual characteristics of that specific church, the Lord intended each letter to represent all local churches for all ages, and THE CHURCH throughout history. In effect, the time of tribulation will occur at the end of the Church Age. In this sermon, we will look at the last four churches: Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea. According to a report by Pew Research, if the trend continues, by 2045 America will no longer be a majority Christian nation. So, while the church in the East may look more like the church at Philadelphia, it is now blatantly obvious, the church in the West looks more like the church at Laodicea. God help us! We will explain this further in tonight’s sermon: The Age of The Apocalypse: “Hear What the Spirit Says unto the Churches,” based on our study of Revelation 2:1-17

Dear Heritage Family,

Have you ever wondered why the book of Revelation begins with seven letters from the Lord Jesus to seven specific churches in Asia? While each letter was concerning the spiritual characteristics of that specific church, the Lord intended each letter to represent all local churches for all ages, and THE CHURCH throughout history. In effect, the time of tribulation will occur at the end of the Church Age.

In this sermon, we will look at the last four churches: Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea. According to a report by Pew Research, if the trend continues, by 2045 America will no longer be a majority Christian nation. So, while the church in the East may look more like the church at Philadelphia, it is now blatantly obvious, the church in the West looks more like the church at Laodicea. God help us!

We will explain this further in tonight’s sermon: The Age of The Apocalypse: “Hear What the Spirit Says unto the Churches,” based on our study of Revelation 2:1-17
