Simplifying the Message for Laodicea

Simplifying the Message for Laodicea 
 
And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write;.....Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing;  
Rev. 3:14,17
Q: What is the Last Church rich and increased with?
A: The Truth
 
But....
... thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot. So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
Rev. 3:15,16 
 
The Counsel....
I counsel thee 
to buy of me
gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; 
and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; 
and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
Rev. 3:18
 
1) The gold is faith
2) The White Raiment is purity of character
3) The eyesalve is the wisdom to discern between good and evil
 
"You know the truth, 
you believe the truth, 
you even love the truth. 
But the truth hasn't changed you. 
Let the truth change you."  
Ellen White
