One thing that really pops out to me in Revelation 1:1, is the five fold transformation of this revelation; found nowhere else in the Bible. Not exactly sure of the significance, but it must be very important for the Lord to have detailed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Read Luke 4: 16-21, Jesus is quoting Isaiah and in particular Isaiah 61:2, but stops short of the verse at the comma (,) in Isaiah 61:2 and then closes the book and sat down. Question 1: This comma represents about how many years so far?? Question 2: Why did Jesus stop short of quoting the entire verse??

In which modern day country were all seven of these churches located? Bonus question 1: How many of the seven churches was something good said about them? Bonus question 2: Do the seven churches seem to represent the history of the church age: YES / NO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTD (Too Tough Dennis) 1. 2019 if you believe the Gregorian calendar... closer to 2023 if we take some known errors into account. 2019 is a good enough ballpark figure IMO 2. the day of His vengeance is "not yet". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes (one caveat...i think churches of all 7 "types" likely existed in every era of church history...but I do think we can see reasons to understand them as a historical sequence representing the dominiant "spirit of the age" ....as well as literal churches all existing in asia minor when John wrote the book of Revelation...that's three caveats isn't it Edited August 12, 2019 by Jostler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
