In the book of Revelation, the seven churches mentioned faced different challenges and were given specific messages by Jesus. Some were commended for their faithfulness, while others were warned to repent.

Because of the way your question is worded...or due to my own lack of knowledge and/or understanding- I'm not entirelysure what you are asking. However, the question brings to mind the list in Revelation of the Seven Churches (in 7 cities). They are as follows:Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea.These are the 7 churches Jesus directly addresses in Revelation 1 thru 3.
There is no connection between the seven churches of Revelation and contemporary denominations. There are no denominations that trace their lineage to one of the churches mentioned in the apocalypse. The churches in Revelation were gatherings of believers in seven established cities of the time. The very concept of a "denomination" did not arise until many centuries later, and certainly not until after the Reformation which began in the 1500's. If any legally recognized denomination were to use the name of one of the ancient churches in their title, it would be nothing more than a label without substance.
