He gave his life for it, and said the gates of hell won\u2019t prevail against it. Jesus himself is the foundation stone of this church. And Scripture tells us his glory and wisdom dwell in it. At Pentecost, he sent his Holy Spirit to establish the church. And he has gifted it with anointed servants \u2014 pastors, teachers, apostles, prophets and evangelists \u2014 for the purpose of building it up.\n\nIt\u2019s clear the Lord desires to bless his church. So, why does Revelation 2 present such a fearsome picture of Christ, when he appears to his people? John writes that Jesus comes to the church with flaming eyes and a thundering voice:\n\n\u201cIn the midst of the seven candlesticks one like unto the Son of man\u2026 His head and his hairs were white like wool, as white as snow: and his eyes were as a flame of fire; and his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters. And he had in his right hand seven stars: and out of his mouth went a sharp two-edged sword\u201d (Revelation 1:13-16).\n\nNow, Revelation is the summation of God\u2019s Word. It describes the end of all things. And here is the first image of Christ we see in this book. Why does Jesus appear so foreboding here? And why does he speak so piercingly to his church? John writes that Christ\u2019s words are as sharp as swords, cutting down to the marrow. Remember, this was the apostle who leaned his head on Jesus\u2019 bosom. But now he finds himself on his face: \u201cWhen I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead\u201d (1:17).\n\nThe Lord himself explains his awesome appearance: \u201cAll the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works\u201d (2:23). The fact is, Christ loves his church. And that\u2019s the very reason he comes to search it. He comes to correct his people in love, to purify them.\n\nFirst of all, Jesus tells John not to be afraid. \u201cHe laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last\u201d (1:17). Then Christ says, in essence, \u201cI want everyone in my church to know I\u2019ve come to search their inner man. And I do it with eyes of fire and a thunder that shakes the soul. I won\u2019t mince words \u2014 what I have to say will both pierce and heal. But I won\u2019t allow any child of mine to continue in apathy or blindness. My eyes and mouth will pierce through every facade.\u201d\n\nChrist saw something in his church. And he instructed John to write down his words and send them to the seven \u201cangels\u201d of the churches. This refers to his ministers, calling them the stars in his hands (see 1:16). He\u2019s telling John, \u201cI love these servants. I\u2019ve called and anointed them. And now you\u2019re to deliver my words to them.\u201d\n\nAs a pastor myself, I have to wonder: what must it have been like to open such a letter from John? \u201cUnto the pastor of the church in New York: Thus saith the Lord, concerning your congregation\u2026\u201d Now imagine what those seven ministers felt.\n\n\n\n…………..\n\n@ahavajerusalem\n#ahavajerusalem\nhttp:\/\/ahavajerusalem.com\n\nAbout David Wilkerson\n \nDavid Wilkerson was the Founding Pastor of Times Square Church in New York City.
