Today we finish the last of the seven letters to the seven churches! No doubt, the most difficult letter of them all. A scathing rebuke!.
Laodicea (Grk. = Law – I – De – Coo’s) was located in a tri-city cluster next to Colossae & Hierapolis (map) and their claim to fame was in three areas: It had the strong banking system in the region (they had money), It had a medical school that produced eye medicine (good health care), It had booming clothing market (we would call them outlet malls). This city was educated / healthy / & wealthy. Who needs God when life is so easy AND outward confidence is high!?! (Humanity is blinded by the pacifying of needs.)(1 John 5:19) sway Rocked to sleep / blind to eternal matters
