Our Wednesday night bible study is in Revelation.  It is very, very interesting.  I had always known that in the early chapters, Jesus gave advise to the churches in Asia.  I even knew that he praised the churches for a number of things, but had something against most of the churches.  I even remember what some of those things were:  not losing one’s first love, not being lukewarm, etc.  It was very interesting when I read the second chapter to review some of those things he praised the churches for hating.  Also, it was interesting how he castigated them for NOT hating some things.  The specifics of those things was very interesting.  It really is good to hate for the right reasons.
