Revelation 2:18-29 - The Letter To The Church In Thyatira

18 "To the messenger of the church in Thyatira write: 'The Son of God, whose eyes are like coals of fire, and whose feet are like bronze refined to white heat, speaks as follows: 19 "I know what you are doing, I know your love and faithfulness, your service and patient endurance, and I know that you are now working harder than you did at first. 20 But I hold it against you that you are tolerating that Jezebel of a woman who claims to be a prophetess, and by her teaching is misleading my slaves to practice immorality and to eat meat that has been sacrificed to idols. 21 I have given her time to repent, but she refuses to repent of her immorality. 22 See! I am going to lay her on a bed of sickness, and bring down to great and pressing sorrow those who practice immorality with her, unless they repent of their practices; 23 and I will surely strike her children dead. So all the churches will know that I am He who searches men's inmost hearts, and that I will repay each of you for exactly what you have done. 24 But to the rest of you at Thyatira, who do not hold this teaching and have not learned the 'deep things' of Satan -- as they speak of them -- to you I say, I have no extra burden to lay on you, 25 but keep your hold on what you have until I come. 26 To him who conquers and continues to the very end to do the works that please me, I will give authority over the heathen;

27 he will govern them with a scepter of iron and shatter them like earthen jars -- just such authority as I have received from my Father -- 28 and I will give him the morning star.

29 Let everyone who has ears listen to what the Spirit says to the churches."'"
