Leaving Thy First LOUc


Revelation 2;4-@NeVertheless l
have somewhat against thee because
thou hast left thy first love-
Sunday morning DR.. Lyon talked to
the tabernacle audience on Leaving
Thy First Love-" He said:
The church at Ephesus was a
great church on account of the great
ness Of its founder It was estab-
lished by the Apostle Paul himself.
On one OF his evangelistic tours he
came to Ephesus and found little
company of believers there. To
them he explained the way OF life
more clearly and they received the
Holy Spirit. Though Paul was an
evangelist. he settled down there
three years as pastor of that church
at Ephesus. There was no church in
Paul's ministry that he seemed TO
love quiet as dearly as he did the
Ephesian.
Il was great on account of its great
history. Perhaps no church that the
apostle founded had done more for
the cause Of Christ than the Ephesus
church. It was at this church that
Paul wrote his greatest epistle, that
marks the high tide Of his spiritual
teaching, and tears away the veil that
separates US from eternity. and
shows us the mission Of the Chris
tian throughout the ages-tO teach
10 angels the love and wisdom Of
God.
Note the tact of the Lord Iesus in
! commencing this church. Christ is
/ always much more ready to COM
mend than Tie is to criticize or con-
denim. He begins by saying. Il
know" Could any statement be more
expressive than these two words? ?
