17 Times

[JM]

The Church is mentioned 17 times up to chp. 3 and not mentioned again until chp. 19 (I believe). Anyone know why the Church isn't mentioned?

 

[James1979]

which book out of the bible are you referring to?

 

[evanman]

I believe this is a reference to the Revelation.

: yes, your correct. :-D

 

[City Of God]

I personally believe the whole book is written to/about the Church. That is the reason for the statement Jesus makes at the end of the book.

They are in ch 11 about two of the churches.

Rev 11:4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth .

Rev 1:20 candlesticks are churches.

Is the Body of Christ ever described as 'candlesticks?' What does the 'seven golden candlesticks' of Rev. 1:11-20 speak of? If you dig a little, you'll find that candlestick is always in ref to Israel.
