Miscellaneous Lessons of the 7 Churches

Besides the HISTORICAL unfolding of the 7 Churches (Church History) in Revelation down through time, there are also other lessons to learn from them. For instance an overall message for Christendom:


The Ephesian church had forsaken its first love,
The church in Pergamum included people devoted to false teaching and sexual immorality,
The church in Thyatira tolerated Satanic teaching and a woman leading others into sexual immorality,
The church in Sardis was spiritually dead,
The church in Laodicea had not yet repented of being lukewarm.

 The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches:

and the seven candlesticks which thou sawest are the seven churches.
