REVELATION 1:19-20(NLT)

19 “Write down what you have seen—both the things that are now happening and the things that will happen.” 20 This is the meaning of the mystery of the seven stars you saw in my right hand and the seven gold lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches, and the seven lampstands are the seven churches.

With all of the world events happening around us (weather, war, disease) many are asking the question, “are we in the last days?” One thing is for certain. Jesus is going to return, and there will be a generation that goes through the events foretold in the Bible.  A better question for us in this age is the question, “if we are in the last days, what does that mean for me?” Jesus, appearing to the Apostle John, gave him specific messages to the Christians of seven churches living in that day. Those seven messages to those seven churches are the key to knowing how we can have hope as we ready ourselves to receive the promise of ultimate redemption at His return.
