“As many as I love,…” Rev 3:19.
To no other church does God explicitly express His love. The heavy correction He hits Laodicea with is an expression of His love. He calls on them to repent. Too often the impact of the preceding graphic language overrides letting this statement of God’s love soak in. Listen to the tears in His eyes. This is a transitional statement between the preceding blast and the following exquisite invitation. He means what He says above but expresses the desire of His heart here and in what follows.
