(KJV) Revelation 3:22
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
THE SPIRIT … THE CHURCHES / REVELATION 3:22
God’s people must continually recognize the relationship between the churches and the Holy Spirit and respond accordingly. Churches are under the authority not only of Christ as the Lord and Head of His church, but also of the Spirit of God. They must listen and respond to the voice of the Holy Spirit, particularly as He speaks through God’s inspired Word (2 Timothy 3:15-16; 1 Peter 1:24-25; 2 Peter 1:20-21). This distinction between the Spirit and the Churches can be expressed by the following Biblical truths.
- The Holy Spirit is not owned by and does not belong to the churches or any human institution. He is the Spirit of God and of Christ, not the Spirit of the churches (Revelation 3:1-2). The Spirit remains free to come and leave according to God’s purposes and how people respond to God’s standard of truth and right conduct (John 1:33; John 7:39; John 14:17).
- The Holy Spirit will remain with any church only as long as it remains faithful to Christ and His Word, listening and responding to what the Spirit says (Revelation 2:5; Revelation 2:16; Revelation 2:22-23; Revelation 3:3; Revelation3:15-16).
