(Dream Date: 2023)
I dreamed of a large Angel holding an enormous orange book entitled: "Ways of Christendom."
(The orange colour symbolises Archangel Michael).
To the right of the Angel and behind the book was a figure of Chinese appearance, and a red flag that I recognised as that of the USSR (i.e. a Communist flag), although it could have been the flag of China, given the similarity (it was hard to recall the specific flag detail, but there was definitely a Chinese figure of authority standing behind it). The Angel opened the book to an index of terms. As I looked down the alphabetical list, two entries became greatly enlarged: "Correction" and "Sexual Iniquity."
Dream Interpretation: The nations which form "Christendom" face a coming "correction," perpetrated by either China, Russia, or a combination of nations who uphold a Communist ideology. This "correction" will have the effect of addressing the "sexual iniquity" or sexual sin/immorality that has pervaded the societies of many nations.
NOTE: Christendom refers to the historical period and cultural-political phenomenon where Christian societies and institutions dominated the world, especially in Europe. In essence, Christianity is the faith itself, whereas Christendom is the collective cultural, social, and political sphere that was shaped by that faith.
"Christianity" as a faith is not under correction. It is the social, political, and cultural standards of the nations of "Christendom" that face the correction, specifically in addressing the issue of sexual sin and immorality. Many of these nations today make up much of what we term "the western world."
As a result of this dream, I purchased a book entitled "The Formation of Christendom," by Judith Herrin, with the hope of understanding the somewhat archaic term, Christendom, from which I would like to quote:
"The Formation of Christendom addresses both the Christian and the Muslim inheritors of the Roman Empire and asks how it was that they came to define their world solely in religious terms...
"Instead of assuming a universal potential within the first Christian communities of the East Mediterranean, where Islam now predominates, I have asked how Christianity developed a dominant position and status in Europe, of which the term Christendom could justifiably be used..."
"The division of Christendom, marked by the synod of Frankfurt in 794, finalised a long tendency towards separation, and set the churches of West and East on different courses..." (pp. 8 - 10)
"...Christendom was also a polity in the West, not just a religious order. The intellectual, institutional, and artistic tenacity and influence of its faith played a decisive role in the emergence of the modern world." (p. 480) [In Oxford English Dictionary, a "polity" is defined as an organized society; a state as a political entity].
Revelations: Judgement on Jezebel
In prayer and meditation it was confirmed that this correction of Christendom is connected with the Lord's messages to the churches in Asia - specifically that of Thyatira (Rev. 2: 13 -29).
The modern geographical location of the church of Thyatira is not relevant to my prophetic dream, but rather the sexual sins held against it, as received by the apostle John - these sins are reflected in our modern societies (and churches) of Christendom as a whole.
Rev. 2: 18 - 23: "And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write,
"These things says the Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and His feet like fine brass:
"I know your works, love, service, faith, and your patience; and as for your works, the last are more than the first. Nevertheless, I have a few things against you, because you allow that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and seduce My servants to commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols. And I gave her time to repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent. Indeed, I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds. I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who searches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works."
Judgement belongs to GOD alone: I am simply a messenger of the things received in inner communication. GOD speaks to each of us through our own heart and conscience: we often know that we are committing a sin, by the way it, or the thought of it, makes us feel. Our modern western societies are rife with sexual iniquity through the images, entertainment, and behaviour. This will one day be "corrected" by the hand of China, who might possibly be supporting Russia and other Communist nations, in accordance with GOD's will.
