How far have we strayed from the biblical faith Holy Scripture has given us by God in Jesus Christ by the power of the Holy Spirit? Are not the seven churches Jesus addressed in Revelation alive and well among us today? The cultural incursion is real. Deconstruction and dechurching are results.
Yes, indeed, and while the church in Philadelphia received Jesus' high praise and encouragement through persecution to come, the others fell far short, although Smyrna enjoyed a sort of praise. How sad that Asia Minor Turkey is almost totally Muslim today. What of congregations that add to and/or take from Scripture: where are they headed? Might help to explain decline today and why a certain unbeliever wants to be returned to a very high office.

Grateful for good catechesis!
