 “The Last Book: The Book of Revelation, Part One - The Seven Churches” by Dr. Frederick K. Price delves into the fascinating and prophetic content found in the last book of the New Testament. Let’s break down the key points from Part 1: The Seven Churches:
 
  1. Introduction to Revelation (Chapter 1):
    • John, the beloved apostle, receives a divine call.
    • He hears the voice of Jesus Christ, commanding him to write down what he sees and send it to the seven churches in Asia.
    • John experiences a vision of the glorified Son of Man among seven golden lampstands, holding seven stars.
    • Jesus instructs John to write about both present and future events.
    • The seven stars represent angels, and the lampstands symbolize the seven churches.
  2. Letters to the First Four Churches (Chapter 2):
    • Jesus dictates letters to four of the seven churches: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, and Thyatira.
    • Each letter contains commendation, criticism, and promises.
    • Ephesus is commended for perseverance but criticized for losing its first love.
    • Smyrna is encouraged to remain faithful under persecution.
    • Pergamum is applauded for holding fast to Jesus’ name but chastised for false teachings.
    • Thyatira is praised for love and service but rebuked for tolerating a false prophetess.
  3. Letters to the Last Three Churches (Chapter 3):
    • Sardis is warned to wake up and strengthen what remains; they appear alive but are spiritually dead.
    • Philadelphia is assured of an open door due to their faithfulness.
    • Laodicea receives a stern warning for being lukewarm; Jesus advises them to repent and seek refinement.
  4. The Heavenly Throne (Chapter 4):
    • John’s vision takes him to heaven.
    • He sees a magnificent throne with God sitting on it, surrounded by a rainbow.
    • This chapter sets the stage for the unfolding events in Revelation.
In summary, Dr. Frederick K. Price explores the deep meanings behind John’s visions, emphasizing the importance of understanding end-time events. The seven churches play a significant role, each with unique characteristics and challenges. As we approach the fulfillment of all things, this study encourages vigilance and informed engagement with biblical prophecy.
