The Message to Ephesus Excerpt Ephesus  was the most important city in the Roman province of Asia; it was a busy seaport, had a thriving commerce, and was the center of the cult of the goddess Artemis (see  Acts 19:27 ,  35 ), and also a place where magical arts were practiced ( Acts  19:19 ). As the book of Acts shows, it soon became a very important center of Christian activity, and at the time of the writing of this letter, it may have been the most important Christian church in the Roman empire.  More Bratcher, Robert G., and Howard Hatton.  A Handbook on the Revelation to John .
