The Churches Of Asia Minor, By Jimmy Swaggart 04/08/2014
-And Unto the Angel (Pastor) of the Church in Sardis, write (the Sardis church is referred to as the reformation Church,” which began about A. D. 1500, and continue more or last unto this very hour); These things saith he who hath the Seven Spirits of God (represent the Holy Spirit in all His fullness, and capacity), and the Seven stars (refers to the Pastors of these Seven Churches); I know your works. That you have a name that you live, but are dead, (Our Lord begin with words of censure, i.e. dead spiritually”)
2. Be Watchful (this church is exhorted to look into its real condition), and strengthen the things that remain, that are ready to die (they need to come back to the cross or they will lose their way completely) (People fail to realize Christ’s Cross is the only reason why God’s manner of righteousness has come to believers, it is the only way into the throne of God as all sin (unrighteousness), is forbidden, Apb); for I have not found your works perfect before God (their works were based on dead Faith, which always produces bad works.) (The crying God, claiming his people being stripped of everything Jesus Christ, i. e. Christ’s Cross, Apb),
3. Remember therefore how you have received and heard, and hold fast, and repent (go back to the cross); If therefore ye shall not watch, I shall come upon you like a thief, and ye shall not know what hour I come upon you. (Judgment will come, but Sardis will not see or hear, due to spiritual deafness and spiritual blindness.)
4. You have a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments (the Lord always have a faithful few), and they shall walk with me in white, for they are worthy (we are made ready only by our faith in Christ and the Cross which washes believers clean as snow.) (I, this apostle will be honest, as I prepare to share the remarkable revelation of this verse of scripture, I’m, this giving heart is weighed down by my overwhelming belief that most supposedly saints don’t really care about what’s written here, most won’t care until they’re either dying and even dead, and this reality truly saddens me, beware, Apb. The RAM)
5. He who overcomes the same will be cloth in white raiment, (the Righteousness of Christ, gained only by Faith in Christ and the Cross, washed away all sin,) and I will not blot out his name out of the book of Life, (proving names can be blotted out), and I will confess His name before my Father, and before His Angels (the key to this great “confession” is Faith in Christ and His great sacrifice.)
6. He who hath an ear, let him hear what the spirit saith to the Churches. (The Spirit is saying that Righteousness cannot be obtained without faith in a spotless Sacrifice.)
The Apostle’s Corner… Apb, The RAM
-As I was kneeling in my prayer closet pouring out of my heart to the Supreme Holy Ones of Israel, I heard a voice say to me and I repeat, ‘the seven churches of Asia minor.’ I found this study so rewarding, how it’s to remind us that God the Supreme Christ, Lord and Holy Spirit, that despite how everyday life is on this planet, they’re indeed the same. Unendingly, they’re Creator, Savior, Comforter and Friend, that as long as we remain faithful they will at a time least suspected come and for all eternity deliver us out of all our trouble, indeed let everyone who hath an ear hear what the Spirit saith to the Specialty Saints (Redeemed Ones) …Apb, The RAM
Let There Be Light
7. And Unto The Church (Angel) Of Philadelphia write (is referred to as the missionary church, and had its beginning in about the year 1800, and continue unto this hour), these things says he that is Holy, He who is true, He who has the key of David, He who opens and no man shuts, and shuts and no man open (refers to the fact Christ has all authority);
8. I know your works, behold I have set before you an open door and no man can shut it (this door refers to the way being made for the Gospel to be sent to the entirety of the world); for you have a little strength, and have kept my Word, and have not denied my Name. (“little strength,” is not an indication of spiritual infirmity, but of few in number, however these few, {speaking of those who truly know, SERVE, the Lord} have touched the world with the Gospel of Jesus Christ).
9. Behold I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie, (proclaims the fact God doesn’t recognize the spiritual claims of national Israel, nor other religions); behold I make them to come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you (this refers to the coming Kingdom Age, when Christ will rule Personally over the entirety of the earth, with Israel restored, Israel will personally bow at the feet of Christ, Whom the Gentiles accepted): {Although this isn’t just about their final worship of this Great Redeemer, but they’re to worship at the feet of Christ’s Anointed, this is truly the promise Christ is making to Faithful Worshippers.}
10. Because you have kept the word of my patience, I also will keep you from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world to try them that dwell upon the earth (The Church {Blood Redeemed}, will be raptured out before the Great Tribulation). {Unmistakenly).
11. Behold I come quickly (again refers to the rapture), (when the hour is come, it will be with swiftness and speed,} hold that fast which you have that no man take thy crown. (the Devil will use religious (evil), men to try to move us away from our faith in Christ and the Cross.) {Again, The Crying God, proclaiming His people are being stripped of Everything Jesus Christ, behold, take heed, I will strip their leaders.}
12. Him who overcome will I make a Pillar in the Temple of my God, (the overcomer is the one who trust explicitly in Christ and what he did for us at the Cross) and he shall go no more out (refers to a constant position in the presence of God) and I shall write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my God, and I will write upon him My New Name. (At the cross Christ identified with our sins by suffering the penalty. Now he identifies with our most excellent Blessing, As He is the Source of it all.)
13. He who hath an ear let him hear what the spirit saith to the churches. (The Spirit is saying we must be ready for the Rapture, which can only be done by faith constantly exhibited in Christ and His Finished Work.)
The Apostle’s Corner, Apb, The RAM
-The Spirit is saying we must always be ready for the Rapture, of course there are millions and millions that are ready but only a few that are willing, only a few who’ve forsaken this life, this world, and the things of this world to pursue a sinless life that is only accomplished by Christ’s Cross pure blood ability to cleanse us, all believers (worshippers), from sin. It’s Jesus standing close and yet afar crying aloud, he that save his life (not willing to sacrifice for Christ’s ministry), shall lose it, shall perish from the way of humanity unto immortal life crying Abba father, though he that lose sacrifice himself, for the sake of Christ’s gospel, shall gain life forever more, the blood redeem is the church without spot and or blemish Jesus is returning for, for only by Christ’s Cross, can sin be made white, spotless, beware, Apb, The RAM
LAODIEA (AMERICA),
14. And unto the Angel (Pastor), of the church of Laodiceans write (this is the ‘Apostate’ church, we don’t know when it began, but we do know it has begun, it is the last church addressed by Christ, so that mean the rapture will take place very shortly.) {this could be why for this end-time apostle, one of Christ’s first commissioned toward her was done out of a type of this Christ Lord appearing in the heavens above as one coming to gather the saints unto Himself, it was the beginning of spring 1986, ‘I’m coming soon, go and tell my people,”} These things says the Amen, the faithful and true witness (by contrast to his church which is not faithful and true), The beginning of the creation of God, (Jesus {God manifested in the flesh}, is the creator of all, things,)
15. I know your works that you are neither cold nor hot, (characterizes that which is prevalent at this present time); I would you was cold or hot (half measures won’t do),
16. So then because you are lukewarm and neither cold nor hot (if a person is lukewarm toward something, it mean he haven’t rejected it, but at the same time he haven’t by no means accepted it; in the eyes of God a tepid response is equal to a negative response.) I will spue you out of my mouth. (there is no prospect of Repentance here on the part of this church, or Restoration. In fact there is divine rejection.)
17. Because you say I am rich, and increased with good and have need of nothing {have no need of God}, (they equated the increase in material goods with spiritual Blessings, which they were not) and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor and blind and naked (the tradegdy is while this church gloated over material wealth, she was unconscious of her spiritual poverty; again indicative of the modern church!) {America, unto the Death Rider Vision 1996, coming against their describable abominable, detestable lives, lands and churches for they’d forsaken God, Apb,}
18. I counsel you to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that you maybe rich, (what they needed to buy could not be purchased with money; but only with the precious blood of Christ; which price has already been paid; but the modern church is not interested); {one of the most startling forewarning given by the prophet Ezekiel to the Judah of his day is the fact one day their precious treasures, like gold will be so worthless they’re going to toss it into the street, Holy Spirit forewarn this Apostle in the late nineties of American treasures becoming so worthless they wouldn’t be able to give them away, “lay not up for thy selves treasures upon the earth,” beware,} and white raiment that you might be clothe, and that the shame of your nakedness doeth not appear, (refers to Righteousness which is only of Christ, and it’s gain only by faith in Christ and the Cross, this tells us that the Laodiean church {America} is extremely self-righteous, not having the righteousness of Christ they’re naked to the judgment of God.) and anoint your eyes with eye salve that you may see. (the modern church is also spiritually blind.)
19. As many as I love I rebuke and chasten (implies a remnant), be zealous therefore and repent, (the modern church desperately need to repent for it’s rebellion against God’s Divine Order {Christ and the Cross}, and for following cunningly wise fables (II Pet. 1:16). {www.repentnow2011.blogspot.com
www.dayofsalvation14.blogspot.com}
20. Behold I stand at the door and knock, (present Christ outside the church,) {one of my first ever visions of God, was while I was standing in a mirror grooming myself and said mirror took on a vision of God’s Throne with its back turn to the church, II Chron. 7:14, 15), if any man hear my voice, (so much religious racket going on, that it is difficult to “hear His Voice). {maybe this is what demonstrates the emphasis on silence in heaven, for John before the first trumpet, for this end-time Apostle, before I witness God weeping uncontrollably that his people were dying,}, and open the door, (Christ is the true door, which mean the church, {apostate,} has erected another door,) {false way leading to death eternal}, I will come to him, and sup with him and he with Me. (having been rejected by the church, our Lord now appeals to individuals and He is still doing so presently.)
21. To him who overcomes will I grant to sit with me in My Throne, (the overcomer will gain the price of the throne, which can only be done by one ever making the Cross this object of one’s faith), even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father at His Throne, (this presents Christ as our Substitute, going before us, and doing for us what we could not do for ourselves.)
22. He who hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the Churches. (in plain language, the Holy Spirit is saying, “come back to Christ and the Cross!”)
After This I Looked And Behold A Door Was Open In Heaven
-Since the beginning of my or this ministry of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit has by plenteous visions and dreams reminded this apostle of this one thing, one day we, those blood redeemed will by Christ’s own personal commission rise on high to meet the Lord and there shall we ever be with the Lord Jesus Christ. In the morning, of the beginning Spring of 1986, this promise was in full force, down to this Christ Lord arriving as the prophet Malachi described of HIM, This SUN of God again arriving with healing in his wings. There times I was commissioned by Him to come, and seven years later I would realize I’d arrived in God’s throne, be hand off to at least one of the twenty-four elders, the Prophet Ezekiel, whereas he would just as soon open to me three special, time tested doors, truly these Ones so Holy are indeed the same today, yesterday and forever, he that hath an ear let him hear, even see what the spirit saith to the Churches, there shall be wailing and gnasting of the teeth.
The Apostle’s Corner, Apb, The RAM
-When the Holy Spirit doing my most heartfelt prayer encourage me to consider the seven letters to the seven churches of Asia Minor, you’re to remember this is the first time we’re to hear from our Christ Lord since His ascension on high. This could well be what this now risen Lord was referring to when He explained to a weeping, sorely approaching Mary Magdalene, “woman, why weepest thou?” That she wasn’t to touch him (no longer to be touched by the sin nature), How he’d not as yet ascended to the Father to be glorified, and now how astonishing, these promises are spoken to us from the mouth of the risen Christ himself, the one who was horribly dead, but now he Lives and has overcome all things, and have with him the keys of hell and death, he that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit Saith to the Churches…Beware, Apb, The RAM
