Post Church Salvation

Q

RE: Your current article, The Nature Of Post Church Salvation.

Based on your reasoning the Churches of Revelation 2 and 3 would seem to be a part of the “Post – Church” salvation.

A

As I’ve written in my commentary on Rev 2-3 (http://www.gracethrufaith.com/revelation-times), I believe the seven churches are representational of the Church Age as well as being literal congregations.

Ephesus, Smyrna, and Pergamum disappeared by the end of 4th Century. The remaining four are all represented on Earth today. A careful reading shows that Thyatira (Catholic) and Sardis (main line Protestant) contain some who will go in the rapture and some who won’t. All from Philadelphia (Evangelical) will go in the rapture while none from Laodicea (Apostate) will.

That being the case, some from Thyatira, some from Sardis, and all from Laodicea will be subject to post-church salvation conditions.
