Overview

Every single thing Jesus has to say to the church of Laodicea is scathingly negative.

The city of Laodicea was a medical center—there was a famous medical school there, and they produced a lot of medicines. Jesus essentially says the church in Laodicea is spiritually sick, and that he has the medicine for them. And whenever we see Scripture diagnosing a spiritual condition, we must always ask, “Is this true of me?”

Let’s look at this spiritual condition under three headings: 1) the symptom, 2) the underlying disease, and 3) the medicines and remedies.
