The LORD JESUS said:
Revelation 2:1
King James Version
2 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write;
These things saith he
that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand,
who walketh in the midst
of the seven golden candlesticks;
Now, we get to Jesus' admonishments to the seven churches, starting with Ephesus.
Revelation 2:2-6
King James Version
2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience,
and how thou canst not bear them which are evil:
and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles,
and are not, and hast found them liars:
3 And hast borne, and hast patience,
and for my name's sake hast laboured,
and hast not fainted.
4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee,
because thou hast left thy first love.
5 Remember therefore
from whence thou art fallen,
and repent,
and do the first works;
or else I will come unto thee quickly,
and will remove thy candlestick out of his place,
except thou repent.
6 But this thou hast,
that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes,
which I also hate.
Who are the Nicolaitans?
Why did the Lord hate them so?
