City Church OTR MessagesRevelation | The Letters: EphesusJumping back into Revelation, we're starting Part 2, The Letters. Chris taught us through the letter to the church in Ephesus. In this letter, Jesus honors the steadfastness and firm foundation of Ephesus and encourages them. But like Jesus does with those He loves, He also calls them out of the rut they've fallen into - they've forgotten their first love and allowed the love of other things to overshadow Jesus. Jesus invited Ephesus then--and invites us now--to remember our first love, to repent, and to be refreshed with Him.2025-02-0937 min

* On his first stop in Ephesus, Paul was received well and people begged him to stay. However, wherever the gospel is proclaimed continuously, there will eventually be opposition. That is what discuss today ... the opposition to the Gospel in Ephesus.

The Living PhilosophyThe Philosopher's Philosopher | Heraclitus of Ephesus | Presocratic PhilosophyThe Presocratic Heraclitus of Ephesus is a philosopher's philosopher. His work was beloved by Socrates, Plato, Hegel, Nietzsche and Heidegger. The philosopher from Ephesus is commonly known as the philosopher of fire (thanks to Aristotle) or, for those with a little more nuance, he is known as the philosopher of panta rei or flux — of constant never-ending change. But there is another side of Heraclitus's philosophy that is less talked about and that is his philosophy of Logos. This element of the Presocratic philosopher's work was taken up by the Gospel writer John who opened his Gospel wit...2022-07-1109 min

Pastor Mike Impact MinistriesRevelation 2:1-3 - Ephesus, Outwardly a Great ChurchThe first letter John wrote was to the church of Ephesus. This was a church that he knew quiet well since he at one time had pastored this church. This church was founded by the Apostle Paul (Acts 19-20). We need to remember also, that even though John is writing this letter, it is a message from the Lord Jesus Christ, “These things says He…..” (v. 1). If you would have visited this church, you definitely would have wanted to join it. Outwardly, it was a great church in so many ways.

The people of Ephesus realized many things that were drastically holding them back in bondage. It is amazing to see the transformation of Ephesus as God once again works through the power of the gospel. Many times in order to move forward in our own walk with God, we must remove certain things so that His Word can truly prevail in our lives. Our message reminds us that we must allow the Gospel to continually transform us and take...2020-08-1955 min

The Bible as LiteratureDon’t Pick a SideHuman beings are tribal. Even in the United States, where community has evaporated, we find a way to pick sides. Driven by primal instinct, we worship, unflinchingly, the twin gods of ideology and brand, allowing fear and greed to control our fate. The Apostle Peter is no different. He too wanted to pick a side. Peter’s confession—rather, the teaching that God put into Peter to confess—rightly proclaimed Jesus as God’s earthly representative and the king of all the nations. On the face of it, this seems like a great idea, until Peter realizes that his side may...2020-04-1617 min
