Revelation 2; Verses 18-29; Thyatira Church




Continuing on in the awesome chapter of Revelation 2. Revelation means to uncover/unveil/reveal the end-times truth to us. This is an extremely important post. This might sting a little. Thank you for taking a look †


(Revelation 2:18-29) "And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;


(Huge point here. Flaming with fire = burning with righteous indignation. Brass = Solid precious metal, tested and proven. Showing the way/path with His feet).


19I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.


(They are doing some things well. Just as the other 5 Churches Christ does not approve of. It is not enough).


Let's see why Christ is not happy, supposed to be the light to the world in keeping them lamps lighted (through the Holy Spirit).


20Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.


But pretty (on the outside) Jezebel:


(Warning about the acceptance of claiming Christian Jezebels. What she does is take them back into the world by her luring deceptive seduction skills. She wants full control (world term--control freak, no meet in the middle) with no accountability/responsibility to repentance all while claiming Jesus. Feeling sorry for herself only because she could not achieve her sin whether she knows it or not. She always has to be right in her self-worship, ego, vanity, bossiness, "wears the pants."


(Fall short of her want of worship of her and to follow her ways she is mistreated. No one understand me. All while she is the victim in manipulating others).


(All while she'd be running after to murder Elijah if he were here saying not me, "I'm a Christian". She is after God servants. What few Christian guy teachers we have left. Let alone guy Christians at all. BECAUSE THEY ARE PLAYING THE GAME TOO. just different characteristics. Sure some will overlap, and that will be for another study. We certainly do advise guys it's time to man your butts up. First stop viewing woman as some disposable trash no matter what you had done to you. What? you're so weak you're going to let them change or keep the same your view on the world and people? You cannot find people guilty by association as it is. That is a sin. Both do that for sure. You cannot view the world through sex, (the next porn viewing) and "whores, prostitutes", and you know the other many derogatory terms and call yourself a Christian. Essentially, what you can get out of people at their expense for your own "game."


We are not talking about a sin here, a sin there. We are talking about living in sin, a lifestyle and how one views the world because of it. No changed heart and mind to repentance. Beside, does that not all seem kind of meaningless and getting nowhere? I know it does. Because that is the way of the world without God no matter what. Circular, repetitive, maybe boring, no end to it. There is no end to the flesh when one only see's flesh.


Apply the same concept as I have been posting recently. You be the first to do it. Just as your words and actions are not dependent upon someone else. You will be judged by your own words and actions.


(This all of course can be extremely subtle as she is full of traps and entrapment. It has to be. Of course, she walks around as a "damsel in distress." Well yes, by her own doing. Everyone else is required to repent according to her own standards).


(Proverbs 30:20) "Such is the way of an adulterous woman; she eateth, and wipeth her mouth, and saith, I have done no wickedness."


(She of course would turn a blind eye to these verses lest her heart discover itself. Heart is closed many times her legs are not. If they are used a control mechanism to control guys, not Christian guys. Oh she cares nothing about unequally yoked either. As she is not a Christian herself).


It is important to note, a Jezebel feels all the emotion everyone else does in the flesh, but cannot feel correctly without the Holy Spirit. So, she takes no thought and keeps on going like nothing ever happened. On to the next "chump." All while blaming men.


We all know how much Ahab persecuted God's prophets/teachers. Nothing changes here. Ahab was supposed to be the leader, showing her the way. But a jezebel loves a weak man and this was her claim to fame as well.


Lastly, one VERY important Biblical concept this is, and the depths of satan are this:


(Matthew 23:29-31) "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,


30And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.


31Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets."


(Because a jezebel does claim Christ/God but her words (sometimes attaches, it's a mix) and certainly actions never match).


On to Revelation 2:21,


21And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.


(She wouldn't have it. Now we see why Christ' eyes were flaming with fire specific here).
Lastly, we will say never feel sorry for one who says, "I don't know what I want", but out their playing the game taking advantage of guys, then the guy is all to blame of course. Sucking the life out you because you are not only responsible for your own sin but she wants you responsible for the sin she is in living in too!


Just like me Jezebel, I had to find out my sins, wicked, and evil I was then my salvation came. Now is your opportunity. Time to get honest.


Think about that. When you impose your own sin and guilt (then shame) on other you are asking them to repent of your sins putting that burden that cannot be lifted. Especially, If they do not know any better. Now we see just how attractive this is. Claim God and blame others while wanting to be over God. That was satan's sin = pride.


Freedom comes when this charade ends.


On to Revelation 2:22,


22Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds (clean up your "act)."


(This bed is symbolic for the marriage bed. What she desired come right on her. To seduce in God's name with no sincerity, she is not committed).


(Luke 17:34) "I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed; the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left."


(That night is when satan comes. Night for the children of darkness. This is satan coming to claim to be Christ/God for the great tribulation said there in Revelation 2:22 above).


Once again, the simple Bible concept of what is rejected is used as a symbol to what overtakes you. CHRIST OVERCAME FOR US FOR THAT NOT TO HAPPEN).


23And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.


(Now we're dealing with the time from the great tribulation and on. These children are daughters of Babylon; Revelation 17).


24But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.


(Now you know).


25But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.


26And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:


27And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.


(It will all be broken to pieces).


28And I will give him the morning star.


29He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches."


Are we listening? Are we taking it in? What is going on now?


We'll leave it there.


Amen †
