Thyatira, The Lax Church

The New King James Version

Address to the Church of Thyatira: Rev 2: 18-29

  • 18."And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write, 'These things says the Son of God, who has eyes like a flame of fire, and His feet like fine brass:
  • 19."I know your works, love, service, faith, and your patience; and as for your works, the last are more than the first.
  • 20."Nevertheless I have a few things against you, because you allow that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, to teach and beguile My servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat things sacrificed to idols.
  • 21."And I gave her time to repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent.
  • 22."Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds.
  • 23."And I will kill her children with death. And all the churches shall know that I am He who searches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works.
  • 24."But to you I say, and to the rest in Thyatira, as many as do not have this doctrine, and who have not known the depths of Satan, as they call them, I will put on you no other burden.
  • 25."But hold fast what you have till I come.
  • 26."And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until the end, to him I will give power over the nations-
  • 27.'He shall rule them with a rod of iron; As the potter's vessels shall be broken to pieces'- as I also have recieved from My Father;
  • 28."and I will give him the morning star.
  • 29."He who has an ear, let him hear what the spirit says to the churches.'"
