As for the seven churches.... Revelation does not include Colossae, Miletus, Hierapolis, or Magnesia.... The seven named are chosen ‘to symbolize the whole Church’...and do a fabulous work of denoting such. Therefore All believers learn and are able to see themselves in these 7 churches that represent the whole.
As for Dispensationalists or others who categorize themselves....I simply stand on what I know from scripture...I don't follow a certain popular or unpopular position though some have shared on FR my position leans toward Dispensationalist.....
I think mine does too, but I am not hyper dogmatic about it, anymore than I am dogmatic about what I think concerning Genesis 6, even though I have my own opinion about it. There is one thing, however, that I am completely, extremely, totally, absolutely 100% dogmatic on, that I am NOT willing to remotely compromise on, in any way, shape or form. That is the plan of salvation, by faith alone. I would suspect you are just a little dogmatic about that too. 😂😇😎
that seems incongruent with the warnings to watch.

Unfortunately that is not taught in the scripture. Do you know where that tradition comes from ?

That seems unlikely to me; are you pre, mid, or post tribulation regarding the rapture, and how could you know that, while there is such a wide body of opinion and teaching,without simply following someone else's teaching ?
