Biblical Asia Minor

Biblical Asia Minor starts


...I was caught up in spirit on the Lord's day and heard behind me a voice as loud as a trumpet, 'Write on a scroll what you see and send it to the seven churches: to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea.'

(Rv 1:10-11)

 

Turkey is called the Other Holy Land as it has more biblical sites than any other country in the Middle East. Many Christians are unaware of Turkey's unique role in the Bible because Biblical references works usually refer to this strategic peninsula, that bounded by the Mediterranean, Aegean, and Black Seas, as Asia Minor or Anatolia.

Turkey is very important in understanding the background of the New Testament, because approximately two-thirds of its books were written either to or from churches in Turkey where the three major apostles; St. Peter, St. Paul, and St. John either ministered or lived in.

Turkey's rich spiritual heritage starts at the very beginning in the book of Genesis.
