Revelation 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
Revelation - means the church has come to an agreement and/or covenant (amen) with the world that they will use worldly things, sermons, words and power to bring people into a state of mind (faithful and true) that God's power only operates through a group of select individuals who have become idols unto God and must be destroyed ie name brand pastors, prophets, apostles as well as those they cover which means they desire to be just like these idols.
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
Revelation - God is saying that you have been seeing the works of men and not the power of God (I know thy works) in that you have to prove to men that you are called to preach the gospel by attending leadership classes, minister-in-training classes, accountability classes, and pay tithes to show that you love God or are faithful to and trust God, all these are things that men can identify and validate, making them their works. They have come to a conclusion that they can tell if you are called to preach if you follow all their rules that they have set forth in ministry as well as honoring the person who teaches you. In fact, they make positions for their family members and do not make them work as hard as you and they come up with this thing called "co-pastor" which is neither Biblical nor revelatory (hot or cold).
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
Revelation - Because man is allowed to control the flow of the Holy Spirit, dictate who can preach, lay hands on people and minister, based on who they are connected to in the flesh, this system of bondage must be destroyed (spue out of my mouth).
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
Revelation - Because you have gotten a megachurch or a few hundred members and people listen to you only, you have surrounded yourselves with yes-men and spiritual slaves. Stopping short but yet identifying yourselves as a master with slaves, you have twisted scripture which has put people in bondage to tithe and yet they are materially rich but spiritually poor, because they have not been taught or made known their gifts, callings, assignment, and burden in God. Because they have been taught to serve men therefore, many are being sent to hell like sheep led to the slaughter.
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and [that] the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eye salve, that thou mayest see.
Revelation - God has left the foundational principal of his church in Eph. 2:20 and yet you listen to whatever your leaders have said. Therefore many are spiritually manipulated and are not delivered but are only saved. We are in the season when the spirit of Elijah is about to reveal the nakedness of the church. If you fail to see that you are being led wrong, you deserve the hell that you will gain for following men and not the voice of God in this hour.
19As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
Revelation - If you really love God therefore, fall on your knees and ask those who are speaking not what you must do to be saved but delivered from the confines of this world's systems.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Revelation - Dont be a fool and deny those who want to hear the truth their chance to hear the truth, calling those who preach Gospel in freedom as false. Your life may just be in the hands of those who you wish would just shut up.
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
Revelation - If you hear the revelation of freedom on the outside and you know that you are on the inside, don't get bound to church and religion. Become free to the Holy Spirit and be lead by his voice, not by man's choice.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
Revelation - You in a season that the Prophets of this dispensation do not have to prove that they are right, but because of your religion you instead have to prove them wrong. Which shepherd will you run to?
1. This church will teach about the gifts of God, but will not know how to understand how they operate.
2. This church will never acknowledge a gift above the pastor, unless the pastor can control what they say and/or the pastor has a prophetic anointing in that they will always raise themselves up above true spiritual authority.
3. They will never acknowledge the gifts in spiritual authority, only in numerical authority. This means they have you serve until they drain what you have, saying you have "not been operating enough."
4. This church will be big on people taking leadership, ministry, and accountablity classes, lessening the chance of individuals finding their own gift and calling without an identity in their leader (cult status).
5. Teaches you have to look, sound, adhere, and listen to everything the leaders says (cult status/brainwashed).
6. They will have all book/scripture knowledge, but no spiritual authority. Hirelings will not see, hear and/or teach in the spirit because they are spiritually blind and being judged by God.
