I haven't yet heard the shout of the Archangel or the arrival of the messiah coming in the cloud of heaven yet, has anyone else? (The bible says it is to be a loud and worldwide event and every eye shall see Him). | |

BUT each church [also] both represents, and describes a part of of the church age. Ephesus the first/early church, and each church represents a ‘stage’, e.g Thyatira = Roman Church [until Luther], etc, etc, with Laodicea representing the current church - which will end [shortly?]. So chapter 4 chronologically occurs, carries on after 2000 years of the church age ends. | |

| Mar 23, 2021 at 19:00 | comment | added | Dave | Revelation starts in the first three chapters with the then present day churches. But, those chapters also reflect church history. A Jewish ‘pescher’, something that applies [both] to the present, but also to more than just that. So by the time of the 7th church, we have around 2000 yrs, then chapter 4 starts .... | |
