Chapters 2 and 3 may be the most well known section of RevelationAt least two of our favorite quotations are found here- what’s the theme of these chapters? Answer: “Church Repairs”• in chapter 1 Jesus appears in a form not found in the Gospels• in his right hand he held seven stars–which represented the angels of the seven churches◦ in scripture, the hand represents power, control, and ownership- so in these two chapters, Jesus acts as General Contractor has the seven churches in his hand• he will tell each church what repairs need to be madeIf you notice, reading the letters we are still on earth- we aren’t taken to heaven until chapter 4• but these letters build a stage on which the drama is played out• this is a threshold we must cross to get to the heart of Revelation- it begins with a self-examination – that's the prerequisite for going forward
