Saints in Russia singing “Oh Lord I Love You, I really Love You” in Russian and Chinese
“But I have one thing against you, that you have left your first love.” – Revelation 2:4
Ephesians reveals that the degradation of the church begins with our leaving the first love toward the Lord. Nothing but love can keep us in a proper relationship with the Lord. The church in Ephesus had good works, labored for the Lord, endured suffering, and tried the false apostles (vv. 2-3), but she left her first love toward the Lord. The leaving of the first love is the source of all the degradation in the succeeding stages of the church. (Rev. 2:4 footnote, RcV Bible)
