“The ‘seven stars’ represented the pastors of those Churches” (Page 274)

“This revelation was given to Jesus Christ ‘to show unto His servants.’ It was given to Christ to reveal to others. He knew them before. The revelation was not made for Him, but for Him to make known. The persons to whom He is empowered to reveal them are ‘His servants.’ The servants of Christ, or of God, are the redeemed. This He is ready to do by His Word, and the teaching of His Spirit.” (Page 2)

“Lukewarmness itself is the sure result of self-complacency; it is absolutely impossible for self-complacent men to be other than lukewarm.” (Page 233)

“Perhaps we say, Sardis was a worldly Church; and this is undoubtedly true. ‘She that giveth herself to pleasure is dead while she liveth.’” (Page 187)

“The teaching appealed to their love of freedom; and here, too, we may make modern applications” (Page 151)
