Jesus rebuked the Laodicean church for seeing themselves as “rich,” “wealthy” and “in need of nothing” when in fact they were “wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked.”  In their abundance and worship of material things, they had become blinded to the reality of their condition. Situated amidst a consumer culture driven by materialism and competition, shouldn’t the church today also recognize the possibility that, reckoning ourselves free, we may actually be enslaved by the very same unseen forces that Jesus said were powerful enough to “deceive the very elect”?

This brief study suggests that only by “coming out” of the kingdom of this world and its commercial systems of covetousness and greed can we see through the deception and enter into the comprehensive life of Christian community that constitutes the kingdom of God.
