1 | 7 Churches in Rev., which is yours like? | Rev 1:11 | Love Fountain | 36342 | ||
Rev 1:11 11 Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea. KJV There are 7 types of Churches in Revelation. 1)Ephesus 2)Smyrna 3)Pergamum 4)Thyatira 5)Sardis 6)Philadelphia 7)Laodicea I believe these Churches existed in the day John wrote Revelation and I also believe these Churches spiritually represent Churches of today. Ever compare to see which Church in Revelation is like the Church you attend today? Which one would you say is like yours and why? Bless you, Love Fountain |

2 | 7 Churches in Rev., which is yours like? | Rev 1:11 | Robert Nicholson | 36369 | ||
Greetings Love Fountain: What a great question! I do not want to sound negative, but I believe that Laodicea meaning (rule of the people) represents many churches today. We find that this church is "rich and increased in goods" and think "they have need of nothing" Rev. 3:17. More importantly, in this church Christ is no longer in the center of the church, but is outside the door V20 imploring individuals to open the door and he will come into them and sup with them. I agree that all seven represent 7 actual churches, and 7 conditions of the church and 7 times in history relative to the professing church. It would be wonderful if we could live in the condition of Philadelphia, a time of brotherly love and when a great door of opportunity was opened as those men of God in the Post Reformation period spoke the word of God in truth and love; a time when thousands came to Christ. God bless you Robert |

Hi Brother Robert Do you have more material on the these church ages ? Yes, we are living in the last church age - the Laodicean Church - the time of the demand for 'equal' rights. This demand or culture would even contradict scripture. You are absolutely correct that Jesus is outside of this 'church'. Another character of this church is it's ruling power or force. Remember when Jesus said 'You cannot serve two masters'. This is the mammonic church. Money dictates itself workforce, empires, goals and hence its character. I feel an urgency in the Spiritual Realm! Brother Alec Jordan Seekola |
