I'm not so quick to say that. I believe the order of things as chosen by the Holy Spirit inspiring the writer may very well be rather important. The 7 churches weren't just randomly chosen, their order is significant. To some, they might symbolize periods of church history, to others the progression towards apostasy, to others phases of a believer's life, etc., etc. Now, I don't profess to know for sure what they mean... but I can't help but believe that they mean something significant, and their order is important.
