But in the days of that seventh angel  through an apostolic messenger, the mystery of God should be finished Rev. 10.7

(Culled from scroll no. 33 )

THE 7 CHURCHES - (Rev. 1:11) At the beginning of the revelation St, John was given a message to the 7 Churches of Asia as they existed then! Rev. 1:4 - These same churches were chosen by the Lord to be prophetic of seven successive future stages that they would occur down through the ages to this present time, with the 7th Church Age reaching a climax! Behold saith the Lord The 7 Golden Candlesticks are my church elect which were refined "in the fire like gold" in each age and my spirit in them gave forth light to each age, as Paul brought the light to the Gentiles so each church age until now was a type of the Golden Candlesticks! (Rev. 1:20).


THE GOLDEN CANDLESTICKS - represent the 7 spiritual churches of prophecy (Rev, 1: 20) each candle stick is a church in each age and was the elect of that age and there is also 7 sealings one for each age! All down through the ages the Lord had His candlesticks representing His people! And in each age He sealed His (Elect) candlestick away until now we are in the 7th sealing of the 7th Golden candlestick! (And He is sealing His elect now!) The Laodicea the 7th church age of the 7th seal (Rev. 8:1) Rev. 10:4 - and He is writing a message to the 7th candlestick you the elect! (Rev, 3:14) in the 7th church age the 7th great seal come forth the Harvest ministry of the Thunders, the capstone ministry to the Bride that raptures her and ushers in the Tribulation, the capstone ministry of the 7th Golden candlestick - produces the mighty creative mir­acles of arms, legs and the raising of the dead! As faith increases enough for the bride to rapture! Each church age also had its foolish which got its light off the 7 candlesticks (Elect) Also the sinner which was given a witness by each candlestick! The Holy Spirit and Word kept the candlestick "light" and gives light to each church age! The Early church baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, (Acts 2:38) (Acts 19:5) But in Matt, (28:19) it reads in the "name" of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Why did the Lord allow it to look two ways? Later by the wisdom of God I will show why there were several reasons. One was so he could bring the correct way by revelation to His elect of each age!


7 STARS THE SEVEN MESSENGERS TO 7 CHURCH AGES - each age is given a messenger (These are my chosen Saith the Lord the 7 spirit filled messengers Rev. 3:1) There were to come 7 different messengers bringing light to the candlesticks (Rev.1:20) That is why it says in (Rev. 5:6) these are the 7 spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. Each messenger was given a revelative spirit to his group. The 7 spirits refer to one spirit of God working 7 revelations and word to 7 different church ages! Like Paul was the first messenger to the elect of his day.

THE SEVENFOLD POWER AND MANIFESTATIONS OF THE SEVEN CHURCH AGES - "Jesus gave each Church Age a promise" (Rev. 2:1, 7) 1st the Church at Ephesus the (manifestation) he was walking in the midst of 7 golden can­dlesticks. The Promise the "Tree of Life." (Rev. 2:8, 10) 2nd Smyrna Church, (Manifestation) the first and the last, Promise "The Crown of Life" - 3rd. Pergamos Church (Rev. 2:12, 17) manifestation a sharp two edged sword, the promise, "a new name" written in white stone" and "hidden manna" incidently it was this Church Age where they discovered and invented scroll (Parchment), (the old way was skin rolls) 4th. Church Thyatira (Rev. 2:18, 26-28) manifestation, eyes like unto a flaming fire, the promise, power over nations like rod of iron. And I will give him the Morning Star! 5th. Sardis Church (Rev. 3:1,5) manifestation the 7 spirits of God, the promise, "clothed with white raiment"! 6th. Church, Philadelphia, (Rev. 3:7, 8, 12) manifestation, He is Holy and true, the promise "the key of David. "And will make him a pillar in the Temple of God!" An open door and the new name of God written upon the elect! The 7th. Church Laodicea, The "Amen" standing on the outside. (Rev. 3:14, 21) manifestation the beginning of the creation of God, the promise, the overcomer will sit in His throne. But He states in verse 16 and 17 that He will spue the rest out of His mouth! Most of these in this last rich church that do get in, "go through Tribulation". Finally the 7th. Church Age completely apostatizes into world system! Right at this point Jesus begins to separate the wheat from the tares. (Matt. 13:30) Jesus is out­ side and now He pours all the above power and promises and manifestations into the sons of God~ "And unto the elect?' the beginning of new things, (the promise) the 7th. Seal prophecy of the 7th. Angel's message! "the manifestation" secrets revealed in the Thunders!). They receive a new song, a new name in stone, and the new name of God! And a new rainbow message (complete revelation of God) but the 7th. Church Age Laodicea (Rev. 3:14-15) does not receive this, because they are spued out! But the Bride receives a message (secrets) out of His mouth. (Rev. 10:4) God's Headstone (7th Seal) message is saved and goes to His elect. THUS SAITH THE LORD! Thunder is asso­ciated with harvest (I Sam. 12:16, 17, 18)
