Revelation 2:18-29

18“To the angel of the church in Thyatira write the following: “This is the solemn pronouncement of the Son of God, the one who has eyes like a fiery flame and whose feet are like polished bronze:

19‘I know your deeds: your love, faith, service, and steadfast endurance. In fact, your more recent deeds are greater than your earlier ones.

20But I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, and by her teaching deceives my servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat food sacrificed to idols.

21I have given her time to repent, but she is not willing to repent of her sexual immorality.

22Look! I am throwing her onto a bed of violent illness, and those who commit adultery with her into terrible suffering, unless they repent of her deeds.

23Furthermore, I will strike her followers with a deadly disease, and then all the churches will know that I am the one who searches minds and hearts. I will repay each one of you what your deeds deserve.

24But to the rest of you in Thyatira, all who do not hold to this teaching (who have not learned the so-called “deep secrets of Satan”), to you I say: I do not put any additional burden on you.

25However, hold on to what you have until I come.

26And to the one who conquers and who continues in my deeds until the end, I will give him authority over the nations –

27he will rule them with an iron rod and like clay jars he will break them to pieces,

28just as I have received the right to rule from my Father – and I will give him the morning star.

29The one who has an ear had better hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’
