What a testimony!

So what do you think the purpose is for addressing each church differently in the greeting.

There is that sword but the one mentioned to the church of Pergamos is the two-edged sword.

I have a pure heart, one that cannot be moved to hate another for his/her belief. Bottom line is that we stand on the foundation that Christ laid and build upon it. Any other foundation is not of God. But anyway, back to studying this topic.

Not necessarily...I think the 7 churches represent a specific spiritual movement bringing us to a place at some point where we are no longer divided by doctrines but are united by truth.

True but God inevitably will bring His believers together in one accord.

Exactly. I used to think that you could measure what spiritual state your church was in by comparing it to one of the seven. But I am beginning to think that the "church" is actually a progressive entity. Maturing from birth to time of the ressurrection.

Good points! Which brings back to thinking the Church was progressing spiritually. I looked up the time frames of each church and they do go in order chronologically as to when they existed.

Lol..

I know scripture is important...but sometimes God needs to speak to us in our personal decisions....especially if we are fixing to make a major mistake. And I know those people could hear from God as well but for some reason they weren't hearing accurately concerning their ministry. (Maybe...

You have hit the nail on the head with this post. Churches have moved so far away from prophets in the church that no one is training them up in their gift and calling. When God first used me to speak prophetically I was as ignorant as they come to understanding this gift and calling. My very...

I only quoted a few of the numerous scriptures that reveal experiencing feelings and the Holy Spirit. I know many times (especially during worship) how I can't help but cry. I am not sad or depressed, but I suddenly feel His presence and I start crying. I suppose tears of joy, Amen?

He could address all 7 churches with the same greeting if it was about sins. Could it have something to do with the church ages?

I can visit a church and sense in my spirit whether the Holy Spirit is present or not. So when I say "sense" I mean feel as well. It is hard to explain....but never have I ever experienced the Holy Spirit drawing any attention away from Jesus. Jesus sent Him here to us to be our comforter...

A hard one for sure...going to need the Holy Spirit through this to open my understanding.

Lol...oh Willie...be serious. I am studying Revelation seeking a deeper understanding.

I understand...you haven't anything to challenge and prove you wrong. Seek for truth...truth will always prevail.

Yes it does. :D:)

Figuring out which is the lie is the biggest problem you face. If what you believe is the truth then what are you seeking from others who don't agree with your beliefs? You put yourself in a position to be judged by someone if you seek their position on what you believe. I suggest stay with your...

Angels are messengers of God....a tattoo of angel wings (which is what most people relate to as what an angel looks like) is letting others know I am a messenger of God.....like when you here someone say "you are an angel sent from God in a timely situation"
