The letter to the Church of Pergamum was encouragement to the Christians in Pergamum to remain separated from the pervasiveness of surrounding idolatry. Prophetically speaking, it was the birth of the state church and planted the seeds for the Roman Catholic Church. Interestingly, the Lord Jesus stated that Pergamum was the seat of Satan's throne - the center of idolatrous worship.

After the Dark Ages (Church of Thyatira - 600-1500AD) was the Protestant Reformation period from 1500-1700AD. From this time period the church benefitted from a number of concrete doctrinal, foundational truths that were re-established for Christendom. However, the revival of the church was short-lived because they continued the error of establishing state churches all over Europe. Therefore, those in the visible church were members by virtue of infant baptism and not personal faith. Hence, they only had a "name" that they were alive, but were really "dead".
