Week 2: 7 Brides for 7 Churches
Read Rev 2-3. You have two weeks before the next class, so study up.
Choose one of the seven churches and report on it next time. You should know something about where it was. You can read as much as you want about your passage (commentary, bible dictionary, on-line, whatever), and be ready to both tell us about it and to ask us several questions. Note that each message is addressed to the angel of that church. Also note the same literary structure in each message:
- These are the words …
- I know …
- Let anyone who has an ear …
Talk about your church’s imaginative description of the heavenly Christ, and its strengths and weaknesses. Is your church mentioned anywhere else in the NT (4 are only mentioned here)? The key question is this:
- What message did you find for you in your passage? For College Park ?
- In Rev 2-3, who are the conquerors?
