“When we read Revelation 2-3, we are essentially reading a report card, created by Jesus, for each of the seven churches of Asia.”
“Yes, itโs important for us to think of Jesus and the 33 years He spent on earth, to get to know His culture and world. We should strive for Jesus to be as familiar to us as He was to John. Thereโs great value and blessing in knowing Jesus and His ministry during His time on earth, but itโs also necessary for us to brush off our imaginations and pay attention to how John described Jesus in Revelation…”
“When we look at the Bible through a Middle Eastern Lens, we no longer see the need to resolve the paradox that is created by the โwrathful Fatherโ of the Old Testament and the โcompassionate Sonโ of the New Testament.”

“We are living in the betrothal season, my friend. There is a day we can look forward to, anticipating when Jesus, our groom will come back to bring us/the church, His bride, home to His Fatherโs house. We donโt know when this glorious day will happen. Jesus explained in Mark 13:32 only His Father knows when the time will be.”
