<p>Preacher-Pastor Joel</p><p>Bible Verse-Revelation 2</p><p>Summary</p><p>Re-candling means illuminating. We old Christians need more instruction. Why do we have to have up?</p><p>1)salutation-this word means greetings to the higher people. This is a sign of showing respect. Let us check our attitude on </p><p>how do we salute our pastors. Let us pray for them more.</p><p>2)commendation-this means praising. When do we praise others? For their works, labors and patience.(Hebrews 12:1, 2Peter 1:5~7) We got nothing from defending ourselves. Ephisians efforted in finding false prophets. Jesus commended their labor for God's sake. with fainting.</p><p>3)complaint-Let's recall for our 1st love. The longer period does not indicate maturity. Why? there would be several reasons.</p><p>Even sveral reasons in losting 1st love.</p><p>a)leave 1st love</p><p>b)love another</p><p>c)love fades.</p><p>*the antidote is count how many blessings.(Psalm 103:1,2, Ephesians 1:3); correction-do the 1st as you did.</p><p> Meditation</p><p>-Yes, this Bible Verse is all about the love of the 7 churches. We often blame them for their lost of 1st love. But we should not. Actually they were the believers despite of the severe persecution. However, Jesus corrected them for they left their 1st</p><p>love. As a believer, I know my passion somewhat fell from him. What is 1st love? I better think of honey moon. At that time, the bribe and husband can see nothing but only two of them. That is how the 1st love should be. Jesus often compared our </p><p>relationship with us as a married couple. Even with Israel. That is why when Israleites served the pagan gods, he mentioned </p><p>it as commiting adultery. Again, ignite my passion to him. That would be the only way which I can do everything he has commanded me to do...Especially I just want to mention Korean Church. It was only by the grace of God that Korean church was </p><p>able to stand. However, now we are under danger of replacement of the church. Jesus surely told about that candle. If they</p><p>do not ignite themselves, then they might be removed. Koreans, awake. So as a member of Korean church and a Korean,</p><p>I will pray for Korean Church. Yes. In history, after few centuries, the churches were eradicated. I should take this crisis</p><p>as a chance to pray to God.</p><p><br></p>
