Which one of the seven churches written to in Revelation were those “church fathers” associated with?
The question shows extreme biblical ignorance ( with all due respect of course )
there is only ONE Church, just as there is only ONE faith, ONE Lord, ONE baptism............
the Church however is located geographically all over the world, so there was a “church” at Sardis, at Philadelphia, at Ephesus, etc etc.
it is the One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church which has been on earth for close to 2,000 years.
it could not go apostate since it is not mans but God’s, therefore it did not need to be restored in either the 16th or 19th centuries.
those letters were written to actual churches
MEN interpret them to mean Church ages
The bible does NOT tell anyone to interpret them as Church ages
Preterists think it is an unfolding, and some dispensationalists and Catholics, too, I admit
But, they were letters writen to PHYSICAL, REAL, and EXISTING Churches in the Turkey/Asia Minor area
and that means they were NOT written to any Church father, that is mans wisdom guessing
but I do wonder if it is a good guess :)
But, just a guess.
Our Church fathers include the apostles. I would say they were strongly associated with those seven churches.
