Revelation 2:19-24

19‘1I know your deeds, and your love and faith, and service and 2perseverance, and that your 3deeds of late are greater than 4at first.

20But 5I have this against you, that you tolerate the woman 6Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, and she teaches and leads My bond-servants astray so that they 7commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols.

21 8I gave her time to repent, and she 9does not want to repent of her sexual immorality.

22Behold, I will throw her on a bed of sickness, and those who 10commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of 11her deeds.

23And I will kill her children with 12plague, and all the churches will know that I am He who 13searches the 14minds and hearts; and 15I will give to each one of you according to your deeds.

24But I say to you, the rest who are in 16Thyatira, who do not hold this teaching, who have not known the 17deep things of Satan, as they call them--I 18place no other burden on you.
