This is a compilation of several true short stories that connect chapters 2 and 3 of the Book of Revelations to controversial present day issues in the Body of Christ. Chapters 2 and 3 of the Book of Revelations addresses 7 types of churches; The Loveless Church, The Persecuted Church, The Compromising Church, The Corrupt Church, The Dead Church, The Faithful Church, and The Lukewarm Church. As it is written, "For the time has come for judgment to begin at the house of God;..." (1 Peter 4:17a) (NKJV) This book serves as a brief and prophetic guide for the Body of Christ to be spiritually challenged to examine themselves. The Lord desires His children to be watchful and ready for His return. As it is written, "Therefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you as a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you." (Rev 3:3c) (NKJV) And, "For whom the Lord loves He chastens, ..." (Heb 12:6a) (NKJV) I believe we are in the Last Days and this will be the generation that sees the coming of the Lord. In Revelation 5:5 Christ is the Lion from the tribe of Judah, who has conquered evil and is the only one found worthy to open the scrolls. The lion symbolizes Christ as king, the rightful ruler promised in Genesis 49:8-10.
