The Church of Laodicea - The End Times Church

Most Biblical Scholars equate the seven Churches, mentioned in the first three chapters of the Book of Revelation, as the seven dispensations of the church age.

The following is a list of the Church dispensations with timelines: 

1. Ephesus - AD 30-100 
2. Symyrna - AD 100 - 313 
3. Pergamus - AD 313 - 590 
4. Thyatira - AD 590 - 1517 
5. Sardis - AD 1517 - 1790 
6. Philadelphia - AD 1790 - 
7. 1900 Laodicea - AD 1900 -

Today we are in the Laodicean Church Age, which began in 1900 but has not ended yet. 

"The Lukewarm Church" - Revelation 3:14-22

"And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write, 

'These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness, the Beginning of the creation of God:

 "I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. 

 I could wish you were cold or hot. 

 So then, because you are lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will vomit you out of My mouth. 

Because you say, 'I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing'—and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked— I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be zealous and repent. Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears My voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me. To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.  "He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." 

An Anonymous Comment: "This is a compelling exploration of the Laodicean Church and its implications for the modern church age. The description of "lukewarmness" in Revelation 3:14-22 is a sobering call for self-examination, especially in our time of material wealth and spiritual complacency.

It’s striking how relevant this passage feels today, as many churches and believers struggle with prioritizing worldly success over spiritual fervor. The encouragement to "buy gold refined in the fire" and seek true riches in Christ resonates deeply—reminding us that external prosperity can mask inner poverty.

I appreciate how this post connects the church dispensations to historical timelines, offering context to the spiritual state of each era. The Laodicean age challenges us to rekindle our zeal and genuinely repent, recognizing Christ's invitation to open the door and let Him transform our lives.

Thank you for sharing this thought-provoking piece! It’s a powerful reminder to live with urgency and faithfulness in these times."
