Ben Grisez - Revelation 2:1-11 What Jesus Says

Calvary Chapel Sydney

The risen Jesus Christ has much to say to the church, and those who have ears to hear will heed His voice. In this passage Jesus addressed the churches in Ephesus and Smyrna, providing encouragement, correction and promises to those who overcome by faith in Him, and His words are relevant for us in the church today--for judgment begins in His house.
