The Seven Golden Candlesticks

In 1990, Silvana Lupetti had a dream.

She dreamt of the seven golden candlesticks in Revelations. She dreamt that four of the seven candlesticks were in place and that the fifth candlestick was about to be put in place. Then she woke up.

Here is what the Holy Spirit showed concerning this dream: Each candlestick represents a church. The fifth candlestick is the fifth church, which was Sardis. Sometime after 1990 (but the Holy Spirit did not say exactly when this occurred), the fifth candlestick has been put into place. He showed that when one candlestick is put into place, the age of that particular church is over, and it passes to the age of the next church.

The Holy Spirit showed that the sixth and the seventh candlesticks (churches) come out from the fifth, and occur simultaneously.

Jesus gave a warning to the fifth church, which applies to the remaining two churches, which are the churches of today: "Strengthen the things that are about to die. If you do not, then I will come like a thief in the night." (paraphrased)

Now it is the age of the final two churches. The Holy Spirit says that one of these two churches has taken the warning and one did not. The church that did not take the warning is dead. This church is the Laodicean church. The church that did take the warning is the church of Philadelphia, which is the church of brotherly love. The difference between the two churches is that the fallen church does not love, but the church of Philadelphia loves Jesus, and each other, and out of love, is preparing herself to be Jesus' Bride. He calls this church of Philadelphia His Remnant Church. They are the true Body of Christ.

The Holy Spirit said that the head of the fallen church is SELF. The Head of the Remnant Church is Jesus Christ. It is because there are two churches, that it is necessary to have the separation of the tares and the wheat, just as Jesus foretold. The Holy Spirit has been drawing His Remnant Church from the fallen, disobedient, dead church. The angels are helping Him to do this. The Remnant, as they are being separated, must go to the throne room of the Father and learn His will, until the very day that Jesus comes back.

The Holy Spirit said that both the warning and the promise, which came through the fifth church, apply to the sixth and seventh churches. The warning was to strengthen the things of Jesus that remained, lest they die. The promise is that Jesus will return - like a thief in the night - to this church. Jesus has called this final church age, "The Age of My Return".

When this dream was given to Silvana in 1990, the Holy Spirit accompanied it with power, but we did not know what it meant. In 1999 He has given this interpretation.
