We see this passage in Revelation..
Revelation 2:15
So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes, which thing I hate.
No one seems to know what was the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes as it comes up in Revelation and have drawn a great deal of attention and questions, because little is known about the group and its doctrine.
We are given some detail in the beginning of Revelation 2 on the church of Ephesus and its works..
2 I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:
3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.
4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.
5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.
But why the deeds of the Nicolaitanes were hated by God and their exact teachings is not explicitly detailed in the Bible, leading to some uncertainty. So who were the Nicolaitanes and why were they and their doctrine hated by God.
