THE SEVEN GOLDEN CANDLESTICKS
If these churches represent that wicked man and evil generation from the
Church in Probation, then the seven evil
spirits more wicked can be seen in those 5 disobedient churches.
| Churches | For each church God says, "I know thy works" and to four churches "I will come quickly (like a thief) in an hour you know not" Thyatira is hurled into great tribulation for thier deeds. | |
| Ephesus | Can detect frauds, hate evil, haven't fainted, but they left their first love. | |
| Smyrna | They know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan...fear not tribulation ... I will give thee a crown of life | |
| Pergamos | They know where satan's seat is, not denied my faith, but They hold: doctrine of Balaam, and the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, | |
| Thyatira | Dedicated and fair, but teach Jezebel doctrine even to the depths of satan, they speak | |
| Sardis | Living dead, weak works, surprised by His return (unknown hour) | |
| Philadelphia | open door, and no man can shut it: .. hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name...know them of the synagogue of Satan | ...and will receive a crown, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world... |
| Laodicea | Lukewarm...Ignorant of Degradation...blind | |
These aren't unforgiveable sins, but they are sins with CONSEQUENCES! Why would God give specific directions on what to correct in each CHURCH if they were raptured away? The only way is to LISTEN to God and then these church people can overcome. OVERCOME is repeated to each church, that is seven times repeated.
Mainly they have corrupted bad DOCTRINE (Ephesus, Pergamos, Thyatira). Be careful what doctrine your church adheres to, repent, and overcome the tribulation. Laodicea have fallen complacent, their blind and they don't know it. To this group Jesus has to knock because they're too lazy to look for him. When the tribulation of Satan is over and Yashua promptly returns some will be ashamed, as spoken to Laodicea.
Sardis, are you the dry bones of Ezekiel?? Your alive but your SPIRITUALLY Dead. You don't know what hour our Lord returns! Most of the churches won't "know what hit them". Pergamos knows satan sits in the seats of the north, calling himself God (not anti-Christ, but INSTEAD of Christ)...How O Pergamos could you know this much and let your doctrine of Baal inside your walls?
Smyrna and Philadelphia good
job! You know who the Kenites are (those who say they are Jews and are
not) indeed blaphemy. FEAR NOT THE TRIBULATION because our Father will
KEEP you from the hour of temptation and you will OVERCOME (only way to overcome
something is to be here to overcome it). Father has NOTHING against you.
Good job - your crown is coming!
| Churches | These things saith He...Alpha | in the end...omega. | He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches |
| Ephesus | that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; | or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent. | To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. |
| Smyrna | the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive; | be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life. | He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death. |
| Pergamos |
which hath the sharp sword with two edges; |
and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth. | To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it. |
| Thyatira |
saith the Son of God, who hath his
eyes like unto a flame of
fire, and his feet are like fine brass; |
that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: | And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations: And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. And I will give him the morning star. |
| Sardis | he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars | Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy. | He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels. |
| Philadelphia | that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; | Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. | Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name. |
| Laodicea | the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God; | As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent. Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me. | To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne. |
Ap. 120 I.1,2 The officers of the Synagogue were:--
Are these seven stars men on earth...here today? 7 stars = 7,000 elect?
These 144,000+ ("+" = gentiles) that came out of the tribulation "overcoming"
I really believe every individual is addressed in these chapters that ever claimed Christianity.
