| Relationship with His Children who are born of His Spirit is the reason for it all!
If you have not come into Relationship with God through receiving Christ Jesus as Saviour and Lord, you need to that right now!
If you haven`t been Born Again you have a terrible future ahead of you. This is not God`s Will so He came and lived among us, suffered and died for us, and rose again so that you too can Live Forever with Him in a Love Relationship where you are in Him and He is in you.
Come to Christ with Heart Faith and Receive the Gift of Eternal Life!

Revival is experienced with a renewing of your love for Christ Jesus.
" Nevertheless I have somewhat against you, because you have left your first love. Remember therefore from whence you are fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto you quickly, and will remove your candlestick out of his place, except you repent." -
True repentence is a turning toward God.
It is falling in love with Him.
Obedience is a by-product of Love.
In verse 4 He makes it clear that the church has turned away from Christ and Love Relationship.
In verse 5 He uses the word "fallen" which implies they have fallen out of Love with Him.
What are our "first works"? Turning from Sin into the Light of Christ`s Love.
So, the church has become distracted by the world and needs to return to a Love Relationship with Christ.
I believe the candlestck represents Spiritual Revelation and Understanding of the things of God.
The natural result of falling out of love with Christ is to ritualize and ceremonialize - i.e. turn to Religion.
