How firm a foundation, ye saints of the Lord is laid for your faith in his excellent word.

Do you ever wish you could receive a personal letter from Jesus?

Well, seven churches in Asia did.

They came through the Apostle John's pen, but were inspired by the Lord Jesus Christ himself.

Welcome to Through the Bible with Dr. J. Vernon McGee.

In our study in Revelation chapter 2, Dr. McGee calls them God's love letters to churches.

They were an encouragement and sometimes a warning to the first recipients of this message, and they do the same for us,

even today. But before we dig in, I want to share a few letters from some of our world prayer

team members. First a note from Eugene, a longtime listener in Washington, D.C. I've been on and off the Bible bus for

close to 31 years. For the last five years, I've been very consistent, and it has improved my

spiritual life tremendously. I'm a member of the prayer team as well, and it alone has heightened my

prayer life. I really could go on and on. I want you to know that Steve and

Greg are on my prayer list as well as the entire ministry. Continue flinging the seed. It will not come

back to him void. Love you all with the love of Jesus Christ. Peace. Well, thanks for writing

and for the prayers, Eugene. We really do appreciate it. I got your seat

saved as we continue to travel through God's Word together. Next, we've got Margaret. She's in Canada.

Good day to you. I must say being a part of the team has been a tremendous help in so many ways

as we pray for one another. I get to read in my email from others around the world how their

lives have been changed by hearing the word. I never prayed for the Bible study tools I have.

I believe I just took it for granted. But thank the Lord that you remind me of how fortunate we are

to have them. Blessings to you all in the mighty name of Jesus Christ as we continue to fight the good

fight of faith. Well, thanks for writing, Margaret. It's a pleasure to journey through God's word
