The Message to Thyatira (REV 2:18-29)

[2:18] “To the angel of the church in Thyatira write: “This is the message from the Son of God, whose eyes blaze like fire, whose feet shine like polished brass.

[2:19] I know what you do. I know your love, your faithfulness, your service, and your patience. I know that you are doing more now than you did at first.

[2:20] But this is what I have against you: you tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a messenger of God. By her teaching she misleads my servants into practicing sexual immorality and eating food that has been offered to idols.

[2:21] I have given her time to repent of her sins, but she does not want to turn from her immorality.

[2:22] And so I will throw her on a bed where she and those who committed adultery with her will suffer terribly. I will do this now unless they repent of the wicked things they did with her.

[2:23] I will also kill her followers, and then all the churches will know that I am the one who knows everyone's thoughts and wishes. I will repay each of you according to what you have done.

[2:24] “But the rest of you in Thyatira have not followed this evil teaching; you have not learned what the others call ‘the deep secrets of Satan.’ I say to you that I will not put any other burden on you.

[2:25] But until I come, you must hold firmly to what you have.

[2:29] “If you have ears, then, listen to what the Spirit says to the churches!
