Thyatira, The Lax Church

The King James Version

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

  • 18.And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;
  • 19.I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.
  • 20.Notwhithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.
  • 21.And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
  • 22.Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.
  • 23.And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.
  • 24.But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.
  • 25.But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.
  • 26.And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:
  • 27.And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I recieved of my Father.
  • 28.And I will give him the morning star.
  • 29.He that hat an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
