Laodicea Hierapolis Colossae

Site of Laodicea, Mostly not yet excavated Nothing good about the Laodicean church!

What this Church thought about itself Rich! Bankers Black Wool Eye Salve

What Jesus thought about this church Poor, naked and blind! Bankers? You’re poor! Bankers? You’re poor! Buy gold from me! Buy gold from me! Black Wool? You’re naked! Black Wool? You’re naked! Buy white clothes from me! Buy white clothes from me! Eye Salve? You’re blind! Eye Salve? You’re blind! Buy eye salve from me! Buy eye salve from me!

What Jesus thought about this church Poor, naked and blind! It is proud, self-sufficient and complacent. It has excluded Jesus. The Answer? “Come to me,” says Jesus. (echoes of Isaiah 55:1-2)

Revelation Hot, cold or spat out?

Deeds

Hot: On-fire, sold-out, passionate believers in Jesus. Lukewarm: Religious people, Christians in name only, doing their duty. Cold: Not believers at all, cold towards God and faith. Extrover ts? Introverts ?

Deeds Water 1.T o drink 2.T o wash 3.H ealing Properties

Laodicea Hierapolis Colossae

Part of the double aqueduct that brought water from the south to Laodicea. It was made of individual stone blocks, hollowed out, then sealed together with plaster and olive oil. The water was so concentrated with minerals that the Romans designed vents, capped by removable stones, so the aqueduct pipes could be cleaned of deposits.

Mineral-encrusted water pipes in a 16-foot-high water tower on the south side of Laodicea. The aqueduct that carried water into the city ended here. From here, the lukewarm mineral water was distributed throughout the city.

Water – Deeds Not fit for purpose! For drinking, bathing, or medicinal use. Lack of effectiveness not lack of fervour.

Revelation Hot, cold or spat out?

All loved and Redeemable! Love and discipline go hand in hand! (v19)

Revelation 3: 20 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 him and he with me.
