The study of Ephesians has opened my eyes about opening my mouth. Think before you speak, you not only hurt another person, you are hurting yourself. Break the chain of sin by being forgiving of one another!
I am Samuel's wife. To GOD be the Glory. HE is amazing. Since 3 years that I am reading the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. I wanted to take my time. No rush with the Word of GOD. GOD wait when I am on the seven churches to use It Is Written for me to have a better understanding. Praise the LORD. I love my GOD
14:21 Jesus' gentleness, wow. Jesus, full of grace, immerse us in your grace and thereafter may we exude grace to our neighbours; both friends and enemies🎉
18:41 beautiful demonstration on how we leave our First Love (Jesus) God is Love. If we find Jesus, we have found life. Bride Ephesus has to find the lost coin; the 1st Love (for God) 2nd Love is for neighbours just thinking
B E A U T I F U L, E X C E L L E N T series, well produced. Very useful study resource and documentary of the 7 churches of Revelation. Nice job indeed. As others have pointed out, there is a 'verbal typo' at 1:03 where the year 334 referenced for Alexander the Great's conquest of Anatolia should be BC, not AD. Perhaps an overlaid, simple graphic correction is in order there? Many thanks for the upload! God bless the ministry of IIW.
3:26 thank you It Is Written for pointing out the book on seven languages of a rebuke/reproof told by Jesus and written by John (Bk of Revelation) The Seven Spirits (Isaiah 11:2) 1.Spirit of the Lord will rest on him 2. the Spirit of wisdom and 3. of understanding, 4. the Spirit of counsel and 5. of might 6. the Spirit of the knowledge and 7. fear of the Lord- I am learning that if I am to rebuke some body, the Spirit of the Lord must be resting on me. Jesus must baptise me with the Holy Spirit, or I pray to the Father through Jesus to send His Spirit in seven fold. I should be knowledgeable about the person, mention the beautiful things about them, then where they went wrong, and then suggest solutions and offer encouragement all in selfsacrificing love (detailed in 1 Cor. 13)
The symbolism of the seven seals are (seven) signatures as per - The ketubah, (“is written”) a Jewish marriage contract. The seven churches of Revelation gives us clues as to who the witnesses to the contract are. Ephesus > Adam Rev 2:5 " Remember therefore from whence you art fallin"... Smyrna < Noah Rev 2:8 " These things said the first and the last"... Pergamos > Abraham Rev 2:17 ..."and in the stone a new name written,"... Thyatira > Jacob / Israel Rev 2:28 "And I will give him the morning star". Sardis > Moses Rev 3:3 "Remember therefore how you have received and heard,"... Philadelphia > David Rev 3:7 ..."He that have the key of David"... Laodicea > Jesus Christ the Bridegroom and his bride, the Israel of God. --All pointing to dispensations of time in order of their time on earth. "He that have an ear, let him hear what the Spirit [singular] saith unto the churches" [plural]. (Repeated seven times, one for each church) “I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the church[es]. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.” {Revelation 22:16} --One body of Jesus Christ having *seven* dispensations of time (the spiritual condition of Christ church,....prophetic continuance) during the dispensation of Grace.
Thank you Larry for this. I have a question on marriage issues. What do the 10 virgins on a wedding, symbolize and why did the woman search for the lost coin?
@@user-ky2xo2ls4m I am sorry that the fact that the book of Revelation covers the entire dispensation of Grace and not simply the last days as the unlearned teach is irrelevant to you.
When we look at the first church, they shared all things in common and claimed nothing as their own - is this not the first love that God is speaking of which the church has lost?

‘Lord Jesus please give me the first love and never let it slip away from me.’ 🙏🏾Amen!
14:21 Jesus' gentleness, wow. Jesus, full of grace, immerse us in your grace and thereafter may we exude grace to our neighbours; both friends and enemies🎉

Thank you, Pastor John. This has been inspiring and spiritually empowering 😊

You're rude and unsaved.
10:11 Hi, just a little correction: the verse is found in 1 Corinthians 15:32, not 1 Corinthians 2:19. 🙏🙏
Correction that’s 334 bc not ad pretty significant difference
You are correct! Thanks for letting us know about the error.
When we look at the first church, they shared all things in common and claimed nothing as their own - is this not the first love that God is speaking of which the church has lost?
its 1 Corinthians 15:32 {i fought with beast}
