Kicking Jesus out of the church?

Revelation chapter 3 Jesus is speaking to the church at Laodicea.

It has some pretty Strong things to say to this to this church

If you want to look at the Israelites like they through their actions they're pushing God outside the camp

Almost well, that's kind of what the church at Laodicea did. They kind of kicked Jesus out of the church

You Know they think they're so wonderful What do we need Jesus for?

Little did they know? Jesus said no, you're actually pretty pretty wretched look at Revelation 3 verse 20

Jesus said behold, I stand at the door and not Anyone hears my voice and opens the door

I will come come in to him and dine with him and he with me to him who overcomes

I will grant to sit with Me on my throne as I also overcame and sat down with my father on his throne

He who has an ear let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches now, I know how this verse is usually

Used we've all seen that little card in the painting and the track right where Jesus is standing outside of the the door

Knocking and there's no doorknob and people always point that out. So this is how this verse is usually

Taught that he's he's knocking on the door of the lost sinner's heart

Saying let me in so I can save you right? We've all heard that That's the most common interpretation of this verse and metaphorically

Jesus He's doing that I believe he's knocking on the door of lost sinner's heart

That's all fine and good, but that's not what Revelation chapter 3 verse 20 is saying.

What's the actual context? What's Jesus knocking on the door of the lost sinner's heart?

No, he's knocking on what door? He's knocking on the door of the church like hey

Let me in let me you You've kicked Jesus out you push

Jesus out of his own church Or I think this is very common today

It you could say Jesus has been kicked out of churches or Jesus is replaced

By going back to this theme of idolatry that churches will replace the real

Jesus with another Jesus with fake fake Jesus the

Jesus they have concocted in their own Imagination and this fake Jesus it just so happens that he's just like them and he agrees and affirms with everything

They think it's funny how that works This is of course a form of Idolatry where you shape and mold a

Jesus or shape and mold a god of your own Imagination and then that's the

God that you're worshiping. But in reality that God doesn't exist and the

God that exists once people kind of go down that road the God that Exists is actually held in contempt

Because these people hold parts of the Bible in contempt There are a lot of churches that would be absolutely enraged

If certain parts of the Bible were preached on Sunday morning

What has happened Assuming that some of these places are still You know, they still have their lampstand which obviously many of them don't

Jesus is outside Knocking on the door wanting to come back in and they're saying no. Thanks.

We got this. We don't need you now They would never say that the church at Laodicea.

They obviously wouldn't say that Hey, we kicked Jesus out But that's what they did because Jesus says so All right, any comments on that?
