Bible Question:
What is the biblical foundation for the idea of the 7 churches being also "ages"? John Reformed |
|
Bible Answer: Hi John R. First look at the seven churches, some are still in exesistance, some are not, 2nd.The warning at the end of revelations not to add or take away, Jesus would not have warned us to leave all in if the 7 churches mentioned didnot have significance for us. The scripture you ask about lines up this way, remember this is interpretation, the basis for the 7 church ages. 1. Ephesus,sower, Mt.13:3-9., 2. Smyrna, weat and tares,, Mt 13:24-30,36-43. 3. Pergamos, mustard seed, Mt 13:33-35., 4.Thyatira,leaven, Mt: 13:33-35., 5. Sardis, treasure hid, Mt. 13:44., 6. Philadelphia, pearl, Mt. 13:45-46., 7. Laodicea, dragnet, Mt.13:47-50., The parables in Mt.13 survey the church age in terms of Gods kingdom here on earth, which covers the first and second comming of Christ. The Cathlocs also have used the time line also.There are also time lines used from genesus to revelations not concerning the church but of a sort to indicate time in Gods eyes. Take time, look at what Ive given you and if I can help more let me know and I will do the best I can to help. In Jesus DL5 |
