The Nicolaitans

What was the sin of the Nicolaitans. Yahweh said He hated it, so I know it was very important to understand what it is and if it still is affecting us today. Well while I was reading tonight I saw this and it clicked.

It tells us right here what it is and it is something that the new beliebers were warned about in Acts 15

Revelation 2

14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there some that hold the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication.

15 So hast thou also some that hold the teaching of the Nicolaitans in like manner.

Acts 15

20 but that we write unto them, that they abstain from the pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from what is strangled, and from blood.

21 For Moses from generations of old hath in every city them that preach him, being read in the synagogues every sabbath.

Acts 21

25 But as touching the Gentiles that have believed, we wrote, giving judgment that they should keep themselves from things sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what is strangled, and from fornication.


So this is so important that new believers were warned to do this, and also it is still important in Revelations.

So how do we make sure we are not doing this?
Do we know what this really means?
If it is so important that our Father said He hates it, it is something we need to know.
Any thoughts??
