WHICH church are YOU?

 

Deuteronomy 5:32-33

King James Version

32 Ye shall observe to do therefore 

as the Lord your God hath commanded you: 

ye shall not turn aside to the right hand or to the left.

33 Ye shall walk in all the ways 

which the Lord your God hath commanded you, 

that ye may live, 

and that it may be well with you, 

and that ye may prolong your days in the land 

which ye shall possess.


From this tab, we got to know about the SEVEN churches in the Book of Revelation.

Out of the SEVEN churches JESUS admonished six of them.

He wanted each church to take specific measures to correct themselves.

Or to hold on fast to what they have.

The Lord warned that He was to come quickly.

In summary, based on my simple understanding of the SEVEN churches, here's what I found regarding what they represented:

The church of EPHESUS -- unfaithful

The church of SMYRNA -- dishonest

The church of PERGAMOS -- unfaithful

The church of THYATIRA -- corrupt

The church of SARDIS -- imperfect

The church of PHILADELPHIA -- faithful

The church of LAODICEA -- lukewarm and proud


Which one are you?
