The Letter to Sardis

1 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Sardis write, ‘He who has the seven Spirits of Elohim and the seven stars, says this, “I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead.

2 “Wake up, and strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your works complete before Elohim.

3 “Remember, then, how you have received, and heard. And watch and repent. If, then, you do not wake up, I shall come upon you as a thief, and you shall not know at all what hour I come upon you.

4 “Nevertheless, you have a few names in Sardis who have not defiled their garments. And they shall walk with Me in white, because they are worthy.

5 “He who overcomes shall be dressed in white robes, and I shall by no means blot out his name from the Book of Life, but I shall confess his name before My Father and before His messengers.

6 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.” ’

The Letter to Philadelphia

7 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Philadelphia write, ‘He who is set-apart, He who is true, He who has the key of Dawiḏ, He who opens and no one shuts, and shuts and no one opens, says this:

8 “I know your works – see, I have set before you an open door, and no one is able to shut it – that you have little power, yet have guarded My Word, and have not denied My Name.

9 “See, I am giving up those of the congregation of Satan, who say they are Yehuḏim and are not, but lie. See, I am making them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.

10 “Because you have guarded My Word of endurance, I also shall guard you from the hour of trial which shall come upon all the world, to try those who dwell on the earth.

11 “See, I am coming speedily! Hold what you have that no one take your crown.

12 “He who overcomes, I shall make him a supporting post in the Dwelling Place of My Elohim, and he shall by no means go out. And I shall write on him the Name of My Elohim and the name of the city of My Elohim, the renewed Yerushalayim, which comes down out of the heaven from My Elohim, and My renewed Name.

13 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies.” ’

The Letter to Laodicea

14 “And to the messenger of the assembly in Laodikeia write, ‘The Amĕn, the Trustworthy and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of Elohim,a says this:

15 “I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I would that you were cold or hot.

16 “So, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I am going to vomit you out of My mouth.

17 “Because you say, ‘Rich I am, and I am made rich, and need none at all,’ and do not know that you are wretched, and pitiable, and poor, and blind, and naked.

18 “I advise you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire,a so that you become rich; and white garments, so that you become dressed, so that the shame of your nakedness might not be shown; and anoint your eyes with ointment, so that you see.

19 “As many as I love, I reprove and discipline. So be ardent and repent.

20 “See, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I shall come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.

21 “To him who overcomes I shall give to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.

do you ever see a person and you are overcome with incredible fondness? and you just think "oh." but not in a romantic or sexual way you are just filled with warmth and it makes you happy, it just does. and you think "i'm so happy you exist. i'm happy you are somewhere out there in the world, doing your thing". it's love but also not entirely

like people are lovely and i feel it in my entire chest like a burning candle that smells like roses and a sunny day

REVELATION S.O.A.P. ~ CHAPTER 3

Tuesday, 4/16/24

SCRIPTURE:

As many as I love, I rebuke and discipline. So be zealous and repent. ~ Revelation 3:19

OBSERVATION:

According to Webster:

Many - a large number, an uncounted number,

Love - feel deep affection for (someone), like or enjoy very much...

Rebuke - express sharp disapproval or criticism of (someone) because of their behavior or actions...

Discipline - the practice of training people to obey rules or a code of behavior, using punishment to correct disobedience...

Zealous - showing great energy or enthusiasm in pursuit of a cause or objective:..

Repent - to turn from sin and dedicate oneself to the amendment of one's life...

I need to remember I am...

...among the many He loves...

...loved - enjoyed - by Him...

...in need of rebuke because of my sin...

...in need of discipline - His discipline because I can't do it myself...

...not as zealous as I should, could, can be...

...not as repentant as I know I could, should be...

APPLICATION:

Remember I'm among the many...

Be zealous...

Repent...

PRAYER:

Loving Father - thank You for Your discipline and love - I ask forgiveness for my constant need of Your Spirit's reminder - rebuke - for failing to live as zealously for You and Your kingdom as I know I ought, for being distracted by the here and now instead of keeping my eyes on what's to come - for failing to completely turn from my selfishness and to live as Jesus taught and showed - for Your glory and for those around me... In His Name, by His example, and for Your worship and praise in all things...

For Him... for you... and for yours...

Intersection of ‘being’ and ‘doing’

“Grace shows up in all of us asking the hard questions to break new ground. Grace is generous and, when we lean into it, we can’t help but extend it to others.”[1] Benbow goes on to explore what it looks like to see through the lens of grace to recognise the brokenness of others and self. Session, quoting Stacy, a stripper, “This is the first time I’ve ever felt seen.”[2] in a sermon from 2020…

Love and Obedience (Revelation 3:7-13)

When we truly love someone, we want to do what they say, to fulfill their wishes – whatever those desires are.

“Write this letter to the angel of the church in Philadelphia. This is the message from the one who is holy and true, the one who has the key of David.What he opens, no one can close; and what he closes, no one can open: “I know all the things you do, and I have opened a door for you that no one can close. You have little strength, yet you obeyed my word and did not deny me. Look, I will…

astarion’s “i’ve almost forgotten how much color there is in the world” line is so infinitely more heartbreaking when you realize he’s an elf- which means by dnd/baldurs gate rules he has darkvision

darkvision, which allows certain character races to see in the dark but only in shades of gray

this man quite literally has been living almost 200 years in complete colorless darkness or at the very least with a very limited visualization and only just now is able to see a full spectrum of color….

Revelation 3: Laodicea, A Final Word

For those who respond to Jesus’s chastening—opening the door to Jesus’s gentle knock—-Jesus will come in to dine together, certainly a reference both to God’s invitation in the Torah to feast with God, and to the love feasts of the early church #LoveFeast

These are some final thoughts on Jesus’s seventh letter, written to the assembly of Laodicea. Confounding Contrast Each of Jesus’s revelations pointed back to what the Laodicean Christians thought they had, but did not really. you do not perceive that you are the one wretched and miserable and impoverished and blind and naked Jesus to the assembly of Laodicea, Revelation 3:17 To the church in…

I was watching 'Revelation' and I noticed something interesting

If you look closer at Adrien's lunch tray, you can see something very peculiar included in his meal choices

There's a whole large stack of camembert just sitting there on his tray, just out in the open for his friends to see, and being as how it has been inferred that Adrien doesn't like Camembert, this must be so confusing for them to watch.

Just imagine the bewildered and baffled faces of Marinette, Nino, and Alya as Adrien piles on the cheese onto his platter, only for him not to touch it and then surreptitiously toss it all into his backpack.
