(Revelation 2:9) I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. (10) Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. ~ Smyrna Church is the church I'm not sure whether it is there or not? Because Smyrna Church seems to be still in Turkey, but now the Turkish faith is persecuted quite a bit severe! Even though Smyrna Church over there, but are they as strong minds as they were beginning?
Smyrna is in Turkey, and the persecution suffered by the congregations of the Smyrna church is greater than that of other churches. Because Turkey is a Muslim territory, the Smyrna church cannot spread the gospel peacefully and joyfully. Smyrna should be a very hard church, but we see that Smyrna is a church pleasing to God. Why are the churches in Muslim places more difficult, but they are more determined? Many churches in the United States do not decay in suffering, but perish in ease and enjoyment! The churches in Europe and UK have the same result!
It stands to reason: the more abundant people live, the faster the gospel should be preached, but we see the opposite result. When people’s lives are more comfortable, people like to make trouble for themselves, and people like to engage in a lot of rediculous things , just like Adam and Eve. Adam and Eve originally lived comfortably in the Garden of Eden, but Eve was going to eat the fruits of good and evil. So they got out the Eden by God. And the American people are incredibly boring! It's okay to engage in racism, engage in LGBTQ, whatever climate, etc., they are a group of people who are full of food. If these people have no food, see if they do it? Confucius said: Full of warmth and lust! No food, no place to shelter, see if they will commit adultery? If there are two more bombs: one in California and Washington State, and the other in Washington DC, I believe they will be quite busy, and they will not be smashed and burned, and there will be no purchase of $0! Everyone worries about three meals and shelter every day, how can there be time to do it casually? And Covid is a political virus? Or is it a money-making virus? See the truth when the famine comes! Make a virus and make a vaccine forever. In the end, everyone depends on the vaccine to survive. You don't have to do anything. Anyway, Meta is sitting and pressing the keyboard, just move your fingers and mouth, press the keyboard, move your mouth to eat!
Smyrna is a very difficult place for Christianity to survive. If the difficulty of evangelizing in China is 8 points, then the difficulty of evangelizing in Smyrna is very difficult 10 points, and it is very difficult to evangelize in Smyrna. When we know that preaching the gospel there is preaching the gospel using life, Christians must be very careful in everything. Christians should not touch the local laws lightly. We will inevitably be treated more cruelly, even if they don’t. Anything wrong will be treated more seriously, and incestuous and fornicating pastors like the United States cannot survive in Smyrna at all! Therefore, the Bible praises Smyrna's hard work, and the book of Revelation tells the Smyrna church: If you can endure these tribulations, you will definitely get the crown of life! What tribulation did Smyrna endure? They must endure poverty, oppression, and go to prison.
Nothing in the Bible is nonsense! But now the pastors talk too much nonsense, and try to replace God's words in the Bible with their own nonsense words and thoughts! If the words of God in the Bible can be replaced by the nonsense of the pastors, then there is no God at all. If we believe in God, we should not believe in nonsense pastors! It is because there are too many nonsense pastors who think that America’s today is the wisdom of mankind and has nothing to do with the Creator. They even regard American science as more important than God, so when people no longer believe in God, how can we endure suffering for God? And when Smyrna is in trouble, it is easier for them to experience the power of God! If they give up God, they must be even more hopeless. "Adversity" is something no one wants to go through, and each of us knows the pain of adversity, but what does God promise? He said: As long as we experience adversity, and can unswervingly look up to God, we will surely get the "Crown of Life"! Who do you want to believe? Believe in the bullshit of the shit shepherds? Or do you believe that God wants to give us the crown of life?
