The Messiah specifically wrote to those “churches.”


Well it is evidently not written to you because you aren’t reading it or your ears are not working. It is my understanding the whole Bible is a letter written to me. This may be the crux of the matter. Is it a relic, a piece of history, or a personal letter to you?

Rev 1:3 Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear, and who keep what is written in it, for the time is near.

So tell me what is the purpose of this letter written to the “churches”? If it is not written to you then it is for those other people who haven’t reached perfection like you have?

“and those who keep (obey) what is written here.”

What is there to obey in Revelation? What was the constant message of the prophets? What was the constant message of John? What was the constant message of Jesus?

Here is your hint and he is still doing it in Revelation, AND HE AINT DONE YET................:

Mat 4:17 From then on Jesus began to preach, “Repent of your sins and turn to God, for the Kingdom of Heaven is near. “

2Ti 3:16 All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,

False

It is my understanding the whole Bible is a letter written to me. This may be the crux of the matter.

Possibly, or a symptom; do you reject the Catholic/Orthodox Bible according to its entirety ?

Ye shall keep the sabbath therefore; for it is holy unto you: every one that defileth it shall surely be put to death: for whosoever doeth any work therein, that soul shall be cut off from among his people.

Yet the children of thy people say, The way of the Lord is not equal: but as for them, their way is not equal. When the righteous turneth from his righteousness, and committeth iniquity, he shall even die thereby. But if the wicked turn from his wickedness, and do that which is lawful and right, he shall live thereby. Yet ye say, The way of the Lord is not equal. O ye house of Israel, I will judge you every one after his ways.

Exodus, Catholic chapter thirty one, Protestant verse fourteen,
Ezekiel, Catholic chapter thirty three, Protestant verse seventeen to twenty one,
as authorized, but not authored, by King James

Is it a relic, a piece of history, or a personal letter to you?

It is my living inheritance.
