Good points Mike. Rarely does one see good teaching from Revelation. For that I also highly recommend Dr Dilday’s studies. https://www.fromreformationtoreformation.com/revelation Btw many years ago, Old John Gill comments on Nicolas in Acts 6…….and Nicolas, a proselyte of Antioch; who was first a Greek or Gentile, and then became a Jew, a proselyte of righteousness,… Continue reading Faithful

18 Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a good conscience, desiring to conduct ourselves honorably in all things. 19 And I urge you all the more to do this, so that I may be restored to you the sooner.
