What Does Jesus Think Of The Church (Of Ephesus) – Revelation 2:1-7

A Rich History Paul labored there 3 years – Acts 20:31 Aquila and Priscilla were there too – Acts 18:24 Timothy had taught there – 1 Timothy 1:3

What Does Jesus Think of the Church? (Revelation 2:1-7) Salutation; Self-Designation (Verse1) Commendation (Verses 2-3) Condemnation (Verse 4) Warning and Threat (Verse 5) Another Commendation (Verse 6) Exhortation and Promise (Verse 7)

He Who Has An Ear Let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches What would Jesus say of Us? Would we be commended as the Ephesians? Is our love lacking in any way?
