DIGITAL BULLETIN 19 June 2022

Week 2 – Dear, Church | Ephesus (Revelation 2:1-7)

The Seven Letters of Revelation – He who has ears, let him hear what the Spirit is saying to the churches.

In this message, you will learn the importance of practicing our faith with truth and love. The Ephesians were commended for their zeal to seek truth. Jesus encouraged them for being people who tested false apostles and found them false. But, he had one thing against them. They had lost their first love. They had given up their love for God and each other.

Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear, and who keep what is written in it, for the time is near.

Revelation 1:3 (ESV)

The Importance of Practicing Your Faith with Truth & Love

SCRIPTURE: Revelation 2:1-7; Matthew 22:34-40; John 13:34-35 (ESV)

To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: ‘The words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand, who walks among the seven golden lampstands.

2 “ ‘I know your works, your toil and your patient endurance, and how you cannot bear with those who are evil, but have tested those who call themselves apostles and are not, and found them to be false. 3 I know you are enduring patiently and bearing up for my name’s sake, and you have not grown weary. 4 But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first. 5 Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent, and do the works you did at first. If not, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you repent. 6 Yet this you have: you hate the works of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. 7 He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To the one who conquers I will grant to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.’

Revelation 2:1-7 (ESV)
  1. COMMENDED for Truth
  2. CORRECTED for lost Love
  3. CAUTIONED to Repent

But when the Pharisees heard that he had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together.35 And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question to test him.36 “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?”37 And he said to him, “You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.38 This is the great and first commandment.39 And a second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself.40 On these two commandments depend all the Law and the Prophets.”

Matthew 22:34-40 (ESV)
