07 laodicea-1224266264429921-9

The church in Laodicea was complacent and thought they needed nothing, but Jesus saw they were wretched, poor, blind, and naked. Jesus calls on them to buy from him true treasure, righteousness, and knowledge through repentance. He stands at the door and knocks, hoping they will hear his call to turn away from their self-deluded ways and toward him in zealous faith.

Letters to the Churches #07 I Stand at the Door and Knock Revelation 3.14-22 Compiled and Presented by: Dave Stewart 24 August, 2008 Las Cruces, NM www.churchofchristmiranda.com Synopsis: The church in Laodicea was in trouble and didn’t even realize it. They were so self-deluded and complacent that they thought they needed nothing. Jesus’ love calls on them to be zealous and repent, buying from Him true treasure, true righteousness and true knowledge. “Let all that you do be done with love.” “Unless otherwise indicated, all Scripture quotations are from The Holy Bible, English Standard Version, copyright © 2001 by Crossway Bibles, a division of Good News Publishers.
