I always found verse 14 interesting. So saith the Amen. I wondered if it were an Egyptian influence. The Amen Ra?

14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;

15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

At any rate, the Sodomites were struck with spiritual blindness in Genesis, very fitting for the thread’s topic and supporters.

Well the Amen is Jesus. All of those titles at the start of 3:14 are names He is called. Just some of His many titles throughout the Bible. I have a framed poster in my guest bedroom that says, “And He Shall Be Called” and lists His many Names. Of course, “Amen” is one of them.

Just a little something for my guests to ponder. :^)
