Then it should NOT suprise anyone that the first seven Catholic churches mentioned by the ANGEL in Revelation were so screwed up in their theology!
Funny, neither the word *Catholic* nor the word *Rome* appear in Revelation 2 & 3.
It's presumptuous to presume they were Catholic.
And the errors were corrected by Jesus commanding John to WRITE LETTERS with a message for them directly from Him.
Hmmm, error corrected by Scripture alone. Where have I heard that before?
