Intro:
Tonight, we look at Jesus’ message to Thyatira.
1/2 way between Pergamum and Sardis
It had been under Roman rule for 3 centuries.
It had no natural defenses and had often been destroyed and rebuilt.
Christ Revealed
Son of God
eyes like a flame of fire
Penetrating gaze: focused like lasers
No saint or church can hide anything from His gaze.
Rev. 19:12
feet like burnished bronze.
feet like burnished bronze.
Glowing hot brass feet brings His divine judgment to mind.
What His penetrating gaze finds, His feet trod.

Rev. 19:
Praise
Their works
love- agape unconditional love
Jesus said they were a loving church!
faith
they trusted God
They believed Him and took Him at His word
Jesus challenged the faith of His disciples often
service- They served God
They ministered to others
service
They met needs
Later vs First
This is high praise!
Usually, the longer we do something, the more mundane it becomes and it starts to wane
They maintained their zeal to serve God
More so at the end than at the beginning.
They were doing more!
Problem
SIN!
They may have kept doing the right things, but they didn’t stop people who were doing the wrong things.
They tolerated Jezebel
Probably a pseudonym for a woman who rose to influence in the church
describe her lack of morals and idolatry by linking her to Jezebel of the OT.
she taught and seduced people into sexual immorality and eating food sacrificed to idols.
Wait, remember this morning?
Acts 15:
Acts 15:
The church at Thyatira had become morally corrupt in the name of tolerance
Jesus warned of coming judgment to this corrupt church.
He had given her time
Since she and the church had not repented, Judgment was coming.
The church was about 40 years old
2nd generation believers were present.
2nd generation corrupted ones were there as well.
God searches every heart
We see only what our eyes behold
God’s gaze penetrates our entire being
He knows our motivations
He knows our secrets
NOTHING is hidden from Him
While deeds do not save, we are responsible for our actions and they will lead to judgment in this life!
Matthew 16:
They were exploring the depths of depravity as they went through the deep things of Satan.
Final Word
To the rest- hold on!
Jesus wasn’t forsaking the righteous remnant
He encourages them to hold on and not slip
The one who conquers:
will receive authority over the nations.
Believers will rule with Him
Morning star
He promised Himself!
