This used to be a vague group which represented apostate, and the inclusion of pagan beliefs in the church. In later times, many of us came to realize that heirarchy of fleshly power is also related to these ideologies. I just wanted to point out another sign of the times:

And this is what I posted in their group to try and remind the others who were saying that God would bless the Nicolaitans on their site:

"This is the message from the one who has the sharp two-edged sword. I know where you live, there where Satan has his throne. You are true to me, and you did not abandon your faith in me even during the time when Antipas, my faithful witness, was killed there where Satan lives.

But there are a few things I have against you: there are some among you who follow the teaching of Baalam, who taught Balak how to lead the people of Israel into sin by persuading them to eat food that had been offered to idols and to practice sexual immorality.

In the same way you have people among you who follow the teaching of the Nicolaitans. Now turn from your sins! If you do not, I will come to you soon and fight against those people with the sword which comes out of my mouth."

Word of God - Revelation to John, Chapter 2.

I urge all of you to question everything, and to know that the Lord in heaven is telling you clearly what He thinks of this. That is all.

~ Jesus is Lord ~

Because alot of you will probably read this and not look into it, I will post what they say on their site about themselves:

Who are the Nicolaitans?
Nicolaitans can be traced back to Biblical times, when they attempted to negotiate a truce between the Christian and Pagan religions of the day. Said to lead lives of unrestrained indulgence, the Nicolaitans were happy to take the fruits of their labours and enjoy them here on Earth. They did not believe that having sex and possessing worldly goods would lead them to Hell, instead they understood that God loves all his children, and in spite of their supposed decadence, the Nicolaitans lead sociable, productive and fulfilling lives. In 2007, Nicolaitans is defined as a forward-thinking movement that aims to instigate change for the benefit of all of us.


What we do?
We host events, websites, and this topical discussion board. Our role currently, is to facilitate a purposeful discussion on the issues that, to varying degrees, affect all our lives. Nicolaitans promote inclusion, tolerance, and debate on all levels and in all areas. For us there are no taboos. Through this website we will provide an arena for you to explore what the future will bring.


Why we do it?
This is perhaps the strangest part, we do it all purely for the fun of it! Of course there's a serious side to our endeavours, but we're not going to cry all night if our way doesn't take off. It's the idea of a challenge that gets Nicolaitans all giddy! Impossible to change the world? Well, in that case we might as well have a go then, after all, we've got nothing to lose. And anyway, what's life for if not to live your dreams?
