63-1116B

In Revelation 3, we read this, that the Laodicea Church, we’re pictured one of the most saddest pictures of all the Bible, Revelation 3, at the Laodicea Church. All the rest of the churches, through the Lutheran Age, and the Seven Church Ages, each one, it didn’t, said about Jesus being in the church, “He that’s in the church.” But in the Laodicea, He was on the outside, knocking, trying to get back in. What a pitiful thing to think, that, “The Son of God, knocking on His Own church, trying to get back in.”
But the riches of this world has blinded their eyes. Not only rich in money, but rich in popularity, rich in the things of the world, the cares of life, until you’ve rubbed shoulders, and intellectual men has come in and taken away that Grain, that—that Pearl of great price. But God predestinated a people to be there; somebody is going to be there. But they turn It down. Not all of them will; some of them will receive It.
