Revelation 2:18–29 [Session 26]

January 28, 2015 by Mark Trotter

The Letter To The Church of Thyatira, Part 4

We continue examining Jesus’ outline of the period of church history from 500–1000 A.D. in the letter to the church in Thyatira in Revelation 2:18–29. We will continue to see the disastrous effects of Romanism in the world, along with the birth of the religion of Islam. Remember, to understand where history is heading, you must understand where it’s been! (Ecc. 3:15)

Recap in 10 Tweets

  1. There are other key pieces of history we need to understand in order to complete the puzzle of the Thyatira puzzle (500-1000 AD) #WordStrong
  2. Piece #1: The rise of Islam by Mohammed in 610 AD after a supposed visit from the angel Gabriel. #WordStrong
  3. Mohammed had violent convulsions, growled like a camel, streamed with perspiration and foamed at the mouth. #WordStrong
  4. For a good portion of his life even Mohammed attributed it to demon possession, but later to the overpowering presence of God. #WordStrong
  5. From the Thyatira Period to the present day, the Koran has been the main rival of the Bible in the Eastern hemisphere. #WordStrong
  6. The Koran lacks at least 2 things to prove it has supernatural quality: Prophecy & Consistency. #WordStrong
  7. Piece #2: The establishment of what the Catholic church called “The Holy Roman Empire.” #WordStrong
  8. The “Holy Roman Empire” is actually the merger of the spiritual/religious kingdom with the political/military kingdom. #WordStrong
  9. This merger is why Rev.17:18 says that the Roman Catholic Church has “reigned over the kings of the earth.” #WordStrong
  10. Piece #3: The great SPLIT in the CATHOLIC Church. It stays Catholic in the west, but Greek/Russian/Eastern Orthodox in the east. #WordStrong
