Write What You See - Revelation 1:11


Rev 1:11 which said: “Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea.”
John is to record what he sees and send it to these seven churches.  It will include a letter to each church, but be sent to all the churches to be read.  The individual messages address particular issues in each church but the issues, admonishments, and promises apply to the church as a whole.
Isaiah 30:8 Go now, write it on a tablet for them,
inscribe it on a scroll,
that for the days to come
it may be an everlasting witness.
Habakkuk 2:2-3  Then the Lord replied: “Write down the revelation
and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it
3 For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end
and will not prove false.Though it linger, wait for it;it will certainly come
and will not delay.
2 Peter 1:21 For prophecy never had its origin in the human will, but prophets, though human, spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit.
