I hear what you are saying, but man can't reason with God when it comes to everything. When you pass, you'll have no say so what God has planned for you. Imagine how you will feel after God removes the evil spirits, the evil thoughts from out of your head that made you to err......you will have transcended into Jesus Christ's new age of enlightenment. This is not your choice, it's God's will.
You asked "Question: In the verse above - Revelation 1:v.20- the 7 CHURCHES are 7 candlesticks; and the TWO CANDLESTICKS of the current time as is written in Revelation 11:v.4?" and then this: "That said, which are the two CHURCHES -two CANDLESTICKS- of this current time of Apocalypse?"
This is not a proper question, but I can deduct what you are asking.
If you research the origin of the two candlesticks ad two olive trees, you will find out that they are symbolic of both houses of Israel standing before God. These are the two witnesses from Revelation 7, the 144K sealed that are virgins and follow the lamb wherever He goes. The group sealed for one thousand two hundred & sixty days in Revelation 12 are saints? They are regarded as the highest of saints, and scattered throughout in verses you've read many times over without making the connection. That's why you came here to learn
I enjoyed a lot you post. As we can see, the book of Revelation may be regarded a dedication from God the Father and from His Son the Lord Jesus Christ to the 7 Churches of Asia; in other words, an act of consecrating, an expression of love, from whom demonstrates great affection or consideration and care, as is written in the chapter 1:verse 4-8:
4 John to the seven Churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from Him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before His throne;
5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the Prince of the kings of the earth (kings made by Him). Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood,
6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and His Father; to Him be Glory and Dominion for ever and ever.Amen.
7 Behold, He cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they also which pierced Him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of Him. Even so,Amen.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. - Aleluia!!!
In fact JESUS was "worried" with the spiritual conditions of the 7 Churches, it was still around the year 95 AD, or in the end of the first century. From the 7 angels of Churches (Pastors, or Bichops, or else), 5 was reproved.
Note that the Church of Rome to which Paul had dedicated great love and consideration had apostatised itself completely, it would be the eighth church among the seven if Satan had not posses it. By the way, John the Apostle wrote about this terrible event, saying: John 2:v.18-19- 1919 They went out from us, but they were not of us; for if they had been of us, they would no doubt have continued with us: but they went out, that they might be made manifest that they were not all of us.18-Little children, it is the last time, and
Thanks for joining in on the discussion. The basic truth I was stating is the fact that not everyone in the "universe" is a Christian. There is no Scriptural proof that EVERYONE is saved forevermore.
Everyone has an opportunity to receive Christ as their Savior. Unfortunately, many will choose not too.
As you so aptly put from Ephesians 1:10 He will gather all things "in Christ" "in Him." However God always explains what He means. In v. 11-13, "that we should be to the praise of His glory, who first TRUSTED in Christ. In whom ye also TRUSTED, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. In whom also AFTER that ye BELIEVED, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise Eph 4:30 tells us "whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption."
The story referenced in Luke 16: 19- 31 is not a parable. All parables given by our Lord Jesus Christ gave no names of the characters in the story. The story given in Luke 16:19-31 identifies one of the characters by name - Lazarus. This is a true story given by our Lord Jesus Christ. The basic theme here is that there is an actual heaven and hell. The rich man is in hell and not in the grave. They are not the same place.
It is hell because in v.24 the rich man said, "for I am tormented in this flame." There are no flames in the grave. He was asking for water to quench his thirst and cool him from the flames.
The rich man can not receive the LIVING WATER because the salvation of Christ must be received in this life time, never in the life here after.
The rich man knew this fact because of his request to Father Abraham to send someone to his brothers who were still alive. v. 27, 28.
Lazarus is now in Heaven; he was in Abraham's Bosum, before Christ resurrection.
Who are the saints to judge if everyone is saved?
Thanks for the time and discussion in His Name.
I have been friends with my ex for 42 year's we split up because I found pictures of him with other men. I went on with my life and got married. We remained friends John is 71 year's old and has a boyfriend 28 year's old. The boyfriend does not want John to be friends with me nor his family he's obessed with John. I would like you for pray for John in that he wake up and not associate with a young man this age. John need's friend's and family.
Thanks
If you are referring to Joseph, the husband of Mary who was the mother of the Lord, his father's name was Heli.

And Baptists, Presbyterians?

20 - The MYSTERY of the seven STARS which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden CANDLESTICKS. The seven STARS are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven CANDLESTICKS which thou sawest are the seven CHURCHES.
Now we are in the time of Apocalypse, i.e. in the end of the times.
Question: In the verse above - Revelation 1:v.20- the 7 CHURCHES are 7 candlesticks; and the TWO CANDLESTICKS of the current time as is written in Revelation 11:v.4?
Ephesians 3:v.8-10
8 Unto me, who am less than the least of all saints, is this grace given, that I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;
9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the MYSTERY, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:
10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the CHURCH the manifold wisdom of God,
Colossians 1:v.24 says:
Who now rejoice in my sufferings for you, and fill up that which is behind of the afflictions of Christ in my flesh for His body's sake, which is the CHURCH:
That said, which are the two CHURCHES -two CANDLESTICKS- of this current time of Apocalypse?
I like the way you put that Brother Earl.
God bless
There are actually 4 steps mixed in there:
God gave it to Christ, Christ gave it to His angel, which is very interesting. The angel gives the revelation to John, in order for John to give it to the servants of God.
The reason for it was to show His servants what things must shortly come to pass.
The word must in the Greek text means divinely bound. These things are designed by God and they must happen.
Secondly, the word shortly. This is not shortly as far as it's coming up quick, but rather when happens, it is going to happen quickly. It's going to take place in a short time.
And He sent and signified it. The word signified means to express or present something in symbols and signs.
So God gave it to Christ, Christ to His angel, the angel to John, and from John to the Lord's servants who are serving in these churches.
God bless
While baptism is not essential to salvation, the mandate of baptism is essential to Obedience.
Being baptized is a command from God, it is not an option. It is an act that God requires of every believer. Among Jesus' last recorded words on earth were, He that believes and is baptized shall be saved ( Mark 16:16).
Sprinkling infants with water does not baptize them. Being baptized requires an understanding and commitment that an infant has no capacity to undertake. There is no record of infant baptisms in the Bible.
There are examples of baby dedication ( 1 Samuel 1:11, Luke 2:22). Baby dedication is where the baby is blessed as a public statement by the parents that they will train their children in the Christian faith and seek to instill that faith in them.
Christians who do not follow Jesus in water baptism have a much higher rate of backsliding than those who do. If a person's walk with God does not start with the most basic act of obedience, they are not likely to be obedient in other areas of their walk.
If you have never been baptized, now is the perfect time to obey the Lord.
I think John the Baptist was born to proclaim Jesus, Baptize Jesus and Preach The Word of God, who is, Jesus Christ. John 1:1 (my thoughts)
You don't have to do it if you don't want to; clearly shown in the New Testament mentions through Paul and others.
Most people know about Baptism. Some churches offer it; others don't. As a street minister, we baptized those that asked for it; in a friends swimming pool or the College fountain. There's no LAW on this.
Jesus gave us 2 new commandments. Let's do that.

God's WILL BE DONE in you battle with cancer.
Most have not been taught the truth about FAITH. Let's let scripture give insight to truth.
Philippians 3:9 And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is THROUGH THE FAITH OF CHRIST, the righteousness which is of God by FAITH (OF CHRIST).
James 2:17 Even so FAITH (OF CHRIST), if it hath not works (OF CHRIST), is alone.
Man does nothing of himself ALL IS THE GIFT (WORKS) OF GOD.
If we apply these scriptures to Jesus and the woman with the issue of blood, we she her being healed by the faith that went from him to her. Faith and works (healing).
We know it was HIS FAITH and HIS WORKS because he told his followers that he felt virtue go out of him into her.
When Christ GIVES you his faith, his faith is followed by his works. Natural and physical healing often times is not the works being done, but spiritual healing.
Isaiah 43:7 .... I have created him for MY GLORY ....
Isaiah 48:11 ...and I will not give MY GLORY to another .....
Go in the FAITH and WORKS OF CHRIST and HIS WILL BE DONE in this battle (natural and spiritual).

I confess Jesus Christ as my infinite Healer, and by His holy stripes and mighty authority, I declare that I am totally healed from the top of my head to the soles of my feet.I render every satanic attack against me bound up and cast out by the Name of Jesus! every spiritual foundation of sickness, and I command every infirmities spirit to bow down right now to the authority that is in the name of Jesus Christ. Go into outer darkness. Do not return in Jesus of Nazareth name!
I pray against sickness in any form or shape. I say with confidence that I am the healed of the LORD Jesus Christ. I cover myself and family with Christ's precious holy blood of Jesus and I declare by His holy might and righteousness, dominion and authority that it shall continue to be well with me and my family in all dominion, and dimensional realms.
I forbid by the authority of the Holy Ghost any reoccurrence of sickness in my life. I claim immunity for me and for my family against every form of sicknesses with the atonement blood of Jesus Christ. I declare that we carry the mark of Christ Jesus; therefore, let no infirmities spirits ever trouble us!
In Jesus of Nazareth holy name and by His righteous authority I have decreed and declared! I stand in faith. Amen.
If the Holy Spirit gives you the names, USE them.
Angels hearken to spoken scriptures, praise music and words of faith. Speak faith, not Doubt.
Eat more Bible, and less food. Grow your faith vault.
someone who loves you...
We are not to run around looking for faith healers. They are in Church, every week. Jesus heals us through His Word (the Bible). The Holy Spirit he sent to his Church on Pentecost; lives within EACH believer. He is the one who is touching us, through the hands of the Body Of Christ.
When your faith is strengthened, you can touch yourself and others, in JESUS NAME. Your human MIND will be assaulted daily, by a gang of demons: their Names: Infirmity, Myeloma, Death, Doubt, Lying Spirit, Fear, Torments. That's their assignment. Satan just wants us dead.
Get your faith up and FIGHT BACK.
Learn how to introduce Praise of God into your home. It brings in the angels (who hearken to Gods WORD); and it scares the demons. Trust me? Listen out loud to some DION songs from Kingdom in the Streets album, on Youtube; every day. Let your spirit turn from worry and doubt and breathe deeply of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit may give you names. You repeat: in the name of Jesus of Nazareth, by His Authority, I order the demon of____, to be bound and cast into dry places of outer darkness!
Don't slack off. Pray the Lord's Prayer. When you get to, "Deliver Us From Evil", give the names= Myeloma, Infirmity, etc. Finish the prayer with thanksgiving. Heaven is listening to your Faith. If it's Big, you're being noticed. Don't allow doubts to cut you off at the knees!
Get on your knees and pray harder, louder. Shake the Gates of Heaven; and send those demons back to hell (in Jesus Name).
Each of King David's rocks was a scripture he killed "Myeloma" with. "IT IS WRITTEN ___". It's up to you to find the scriptures to deliver the killing blow.
Keep Praise your focal point; but fight like a son of God. Fear not.

The Revelation (the revealing) of Jesus Christ, which God (the Father) gave to him (Jesus Christ) to show (to reveal) to his servants (God's elect) things (kingdom of God, CHRIST IN YOU) which must shortly come to pass (before your body of flesh naturally dies); and He (the Father) sent and signified it (hid the revelation in symbols) by HIS ANGEL (Jesus is the Angel of the Lord) unto his servant John.
The ANGEL (of the Lord) is JESUS CHRIST.
