Do The Works You Did At First

Revelation 2:1-7

Key Verse 2:5

“Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent, and do the works you did at first. If not, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you repent.”

  1. Read v. 1-3. Who is the stated recipient of this passage (1a)? What aspects of himself did Jesus state in his open address to this church (1b)? What did Jesus say he knew about (2a)? What type of dangerous attack did this church successfully defend against (2b)? What do their successes reveal about this church?

  2. Read v. 4-6. What did Jesus have against this church (4)? What were they to remember; why (5)? How were they to reconcile this issue before Jesus? What consequence did Jesus seriously warn them about? How does this correction tie into how Jesus revealed himself in v.1?

  3. Read v. 7. What is the meaning of the expression, “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches”? Despite many good points and a serious area of correction, what did everyone in this church still need to do (7b)? What special gift is granted to everyone who “conquers”? Why is this reward significant for every Christian?
