Revelation:2:18-29
Seeker Overlay ON
* »
To the minister of the Church at Thyateira write as follows :« `
This is what the Son of God says –
He who has eyes like a flame of fire ,
and feet resembling silver-bronze .
*
I know your doings ,
your love ,
your faith ,
your service ,
and your patient endurance ;
and that of late you have toiled harder than you did at first .
*
Yet I have this against you ,
that you tolerate the woman Jezebel ,
who calls herself a prophetess and by her teaching leads astray My servants ,
so that they commit fornication and eat what has been sacrificed to idols .
*
I have given her time to repent ,
but she is determined not to repent of her fornication .
*
I tell you that I am about to cast her upon a bed of sickness ,
and I will severely afflict those who commit adultery with her ,
unless they repent of conduct such as hers .
*
Her children too shall surely die ;
and all the Churches shall come to know that I am He who searches into men '
s inmost thoughts ;
and to each of you I will give a requital which shall be in accordance with what your conduct has been .
*
But to you ,
the rest of you in Thyateira ,
all who do not hold this teaching and are not the people who have learnt the »
deep things ,«
as they call them (
the deep things of Satan !) –
to you I say that I lay no other burden on you .
*
Only that which you already possess ,
cling to until I come .
* »`
And to him who overcomes and obeys My commands to the very end ,
I will give authority over the nations of the earth .
*
And he shall be their shepherd ,
ruling them with a rod of iron ,
just as earthenware jars are broken to pieces ;
and his power over them shall be like that which I Myself have received from My Father ;«
*
and I will give him the Morning Star .
*
Let all who have ears give heed to what the Spirit is saying to the Churches .'
