Excellent piece. I loved this line:
“Thus He introduces himself in each case, highlighting the attribute in Him that meets the need, He is the One who holds the churches in His hand, out of His mouth goes a sharp two edged sword, His eyes are a flame of fire, and feet like bronze, He is the one with the sevenfold Spirit of God, each attribute adequate to meet the need of the “things which are”, in the churches.”
Amen!
Thanks for this.
It’s good.
Thanks again!
I love you. Thanks for sharing on FR.
[[The church does have a rival, in “the things that are”. She is a bride to be, but she is rivaled by a gaudy harlot, which pretends to be the Bride, and attracts great crowds to her own profane show of worship. the Harlot prostitutes everything precious, and blasphemes the name of God in the name of God, and always persecutes the true Bride. The World does regard her because she shares the values of this fallen world. ]]
reminds me of this song :)
Many are those
That rise up against me
And many are saying of me
God will not deliver him
Many are those
That rise up against me
And many are saying of me
God will not deliver him
Arise oh Lord and deliver me
Oh my God, oh my God
Arise oh Lord and deliver me
Oh my God, oh my God
I cry upon my Lord
And He answers me
From His holy hill
Oh, I cry upon my Lord
And He answers me
From His holy hill
Arise oh Lord and deliver me
Oh my God, oh my God
Arise oh Lord and deliver me
Oh my God, oh my God
I will not fear
The tens of thousands
Drawn up against me
On every side
Arise oh Lord and deliver me
Oh my God, oh my God
Arise oh Lord and deliver me
Oh my God, oh my God
Arise oh Lord and deliver me
Oh my God, oh my God
Arise oh Lord and deliver me
Oh my God, oh my God
