In this session, we examined the message of Christ to the Church in Philadelphia, focusing on Christ's declaration of open doors despite oppositions and challenges. Christ commended the church for keeping the faith, the word of His patience and not denying His name, despite their little strength. Believers are called to remain faithful and loyal to the Lord, men like Daniel, Joseph and the three Hebrews were, and we saw the open door God placed before them. We also see the fate of Judas, an example of disloyalty and double dealing, a warning to all.

In this session, we examined the message of Christ to the Church in Thyatira, focusing on their growing Christian virtue of charity, service, faith and patience, but had harbored that woman Jezebel to seduce God's people, Like many in Thyatira, a large number of growing believers are permissive in their choices of who/what they listen to, resulting in a growing blemish and contamination. Jesus had to encourage and warn that overcomers are the ones who will keep the words of God to the end and will be given power over the nations.

Pergamos, the third of the churches. Pergamos was described as a Church dwelling where Satan dwells.

Smyrna, the second of the churches. Smyrna was described as a Church in tribulations, poverty and blasphemy of false brethren, Christ Jesus encourages the church to continue till the end. This letter is a message of hope to every saint experiencing tribulation, poverty and prejudice, for Christ knows your state, He calls you rich though you lack the good of this world, He knows the blasphemy of false brethren around you, and He encourages you to continue, for your present and future persecutions is only but for a moment, and they all work a far more exceeding weight of glory.

The Church in Ephesus, the first of the churches mentioned in Christ's letter, had declined in love. In this session, we examined the the context of the church at its beginning - based on Acts 19, to highlight the height and depth of their love for God amidst persecution and trials, then compared this to the description of their state at the time of the letter. Prayerfully listen to this session as the Holy Spirit admonishes and helps us sustain the beginning of our love, faith and hope in Christ.
