How does the identity of the True Church in Rev 12:17, 14:12, 22:14 fit your Church?

Answer 1

There isn't a single christian denomination, unless a new one has been added recently, that keeps the commandments. These verses should be a wake up call to everyone who claims to be christian. If you use the NIV (Not Inspired Version) Rev. 22.14 just says they should wash their robes. Talk about deliberate mistranslation!

I see this question brought out a few of the "rapture fable" believers. How careless to believe such fantasy that cannot be found in scripture. What are you folks going to do when the "brimstone hits the fan" and you're still here? Yeshua said the "tares" will be taken from among the wheat. Not the other way around.

Answer 2

Rev 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

Rev 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here [are] they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.

Rev 22:14 Blessed [are] they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city.

I believe the Church that I am member of does keep the Commandments of God including the 4th commandment ans also has the testimony of Jesus Christ which is the Spirit of prophecy.

However Church membership does not earn you a ticket to heaven. I think there will be many in my very own church that do not make it to the kingdom, which is a very sad thought

Answer 3

I don't attend church cuz I've yet to find one that fits that discription that has a congregation here in Alaska. I get materials and visit the website of a denomination called the World Wide Church of God which was founded by Herbert W. Armstrong but I believe this is an offshoot branch of the original. They seem for the most part to preach the Word of God and urge everyone to be in it. Love in Christ, ~J~

Answer 4

God's church will believe in Jesus as Savior and keep his Commandments. One more observation is appropriate here, especially for Protestant clergy and laymen to consider.

The argument for Sunday as the Lord's day is not scriptural. Many Bible students have come to recognize that the Sabbath day is Saturday, which is the Seventh-day of the week. Many protestant leaders boldly claim that the apostles ordained that the first day of the week be observed in place of the seventh, citing John's use of the term "Lord's Day" in Revelation 1:10, despite the fact that the only day God ever set apart as holy and claimed as his own by resting on it himself was the seventh day of the fourth Commandment. Protestants may not be aware that in defense of the Sunday Sabbath they are using the Roman Catholic arguments contained in the Cathechism of the Council of Trent published in the sixteenth century. I would suggest that you do your research on this issue. The Bible is the standard for belief and practice not the Papacy.

Answer 5

These verses are not mentioning the church. By that time church will be with Christ Jesus.
But some who didn't obey in this grace period but know about the salvation - will realize what is told in the Bible is correct and will try to stand for Jesus Christ. This includes present Jews, and other people of all kinds of languages and tribes.

Answer 6

it fits most all the churches,not one is doing it all , their some individuals who are trying to change it for the better. which i applaud . there should be two that are extraordinary good at it. Rev 11

Answer 7

Excellent question. Every church in the world should be comparing themselves with the 7 churches of Revelation today. God says if you are "lukewarm" He will vomit you out of His mouth.

Answer 8

I'm sure that someone is going to say that it doesn't fit their church. Riiight!
