I Know Thy Works (Revelation 2)

At the heart of Christianity is the forgiveness of sin: the recognition that we have done things we ought not do, and the Lord suffered and died to provide redemption.

In Revelation chapters 2 and 3, Jesus sends letters to seven churches in Asia. Some of these churches receive a swifter rebuke than others, and some are simply praised. The one theme that glues all these letters together is this: don’t merely embrace the Faith as you want it to be, but rather as it actually is. The Way of Life, that is, Christianity, must be received in full. To parse it out it is to reject it, to exchange its truth for a lie. Inasmuch as Jesus’ tunic could not be divided by those who crucified him, neither can His commandments be divided by His Family (Church of the Nazarene Bible Study)
