perfection or • Isaiah’s 7 spirits Is. 11 v 2:
Spirits of God, Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel, Strength, Knowledge & Fear of the Lord.
• He holds the 7 stars—symbolic for the angels of the 7 churches
The Challenge
• Your deeds give you the reputation of life although dead.
• Something DOES remain • Time for resuscitation!• Brain dead or renewed mind Rom. 12 v 2?• You have missed the mark.• Remember! 2 Peter 1 v 12
Warning & Encouragement
• Turn or Burn? Not exactly, but warning of discipline—removal of ‘Candlestick’?
• ‘Having a form of godliness, but denying the power’. 2 Tim. 3 v 5
• Music & Revival.• Not all have failed, but will still walk in white
with Jesus.• Parable of the sower?
