Laodicea was the worst of the seven churches. It was rich, prideful and ungodly. Jesus sends them and all like churches a strong message of judgement, unless they repent. This message takes a penetrating look at the state of the church and what believers can do to stay in the good graces of Christ.
Philadelphia was a church that kept Christ's Word, even in the midst of a hostile pagan culture. They along with Smyrna were the best churches with no criticism leveled at them from Christ. Churches and individuals today must follow the example the people of Philadelphia set. The message is a call to faithfulness and perseverance. It is also a message of great hope for the believer because Christ promises divine exemption from the Tribulation that is coming on the whole world.
Sardis was a church not unlike churches today. They had brought the world into the church and corrupted the mission of the church. They were dead in many ways and even the few faithful were dying. Jesus Christ sends them and any church that follows their ways a very stark warning: repent or face judgment. This messages speaks to all churches of all time to make sure they stay on point and preach the Bible and glorify Christ alone.
