We are at the final letter to the seven churches, and thus far we’ve read about

the Loveless church (Ephesus), the Suffering church (Smyrna), the

Compromising church (Pergamos), the Corrupt church (Thyatira), the Dead

church (Sardis), the Faithful church (Philadelphia), and now the Lukewarm

church (Laodicea).Every one of these churches had some good things about them > Ephesus

although it was loveless it was hardworking and hated false teachers. Smyrna

suffered through persecution and poverty, Pergamos even in the midst of false

teachers did not renounce their faith and remained true to Christ, Thyatira was

corrupt but a serving church, Sardis dead but dutiful church, and Philadelphia a

faithful church.
