    The Church Of Smyrna: Possessing The Wealth Of Heaven (Revelation 2:8-11)

    Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 18, 2023
     | 1,076 views

    Within the city of Smyrna, there existed a struggling Christian community undergoing intense and withering persecution. The Lord Jesus came to them with a word of comfort for their dark days. Even though they were poor, they were, in fact, rich beyond imagination.

    In our look at the seven churches of Asia Minor described in Revelation, Chapters 2 and 3, we come to the second church the Lord Jesus addresses in terms of testimony and steadfastness to the Gospel. This is the church in the city of Smyrna, which was located about 35 miles north of Ephesus. ...read more

    based on 1 rating
     | 1,922 views

    As believers in the Lord Jesus we are called to keep our lamps burning bright so that those around us who are still in the darkness of sin and unbelief can come into the light. The question is, “Is are our lamps shining bright for the Lord or are we hiding our lamps?

    It is recorded in Mark 4:21, Jesus said to them, "Does anyone bring a lamp into a room to put it under a basket or under a bed? Isn't it put on a lamp stand? (GW) As we meditate on the questions Jesus asked while here on earth, we realize that these questions were asked to help people ...read more

    Busy About The Wrong Thing

    based on 50 ratings
     | 12,696 views

    Given a man to keep, he had lost the man. And he had lost him because he was too busy to keep him. Evidently the servant considered that an excuse. Had he been idle, then indeed the loss of the man would have been an unpardonable offence.

    Busy about the Wrong Thing I Kings 20:40 And as thy servant was busy here and there, he was gone. The text is part of a little parable, spoken by an unnamed prophet to King Ahab. I Kings 20:39 (KJV) And as the king passed by, he cried unto the king: and he said, Thy servant went out into the ...read more

    Hope. Not that sappy Oprah kind, but the biblical kind. The kind that says: In spite of the circumstances that surround you, God will hold hope for you, And beyond any explanation possible there will be joy.

    This is a wonderful passage. There is so much that is packed in to these few words. I don’t know about you, but the first thing that jumps out at me is verse 8 – Place your finger there – and let’s look at it again…I see Peter, as he is writing this statement, saying it with….shock and awe. 8 ...read more
