Compare all
11 a“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. He who overcomes shall not be hurt by bthe second death.” ’  

The Compromising Church

12 “And to the1 angel of the church in Pergamos write, ‘These things says aHe who has the sharp two-edged sword:  
13 “I know your works, and where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is. And you hold fast to My name, and did not deny My faith even in the days in which Antipas was My faithful martyr, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.
14 But I have a few things against you, because you have there those who hold the doctrine of aBalaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the children of Israel, bto eat things sacrificed to idols, cand to commit sexual immorality.  
15 Thus you also have those who hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.  
16 Repent, or else I will come to you quickly and awill fight against them with the sword of My mouth.  
17 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden amanna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone ba new name written which no one knows except him who receives it.” ’  

The Corrupt Church

18 “And to the1 angel of the church in Thyatira write, ‘These things says the Son of God, awho has eyes like a flame of fire, and His feet like fine brass:  
19 a“I know your works, love,1 service, faith, and your patience; and as for your works, the last are more than the first.  
20 Nevertheless I have a few things against you, because you allow2 that woman aJezebel, who calls herself a prophetess,3 to teach and seduce My servants bto commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols.  
21 And I gave her time ato repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent.  
22 Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of1 their deeds.  
23 I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who asearches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works.  
24 “Now to you I say,1 and to the rest in Thyatira, as many as do not have this doctrine, who have not known the adepths of Satan, as they say, bI will put on you no other burden.  
25 But hold fast awhat you have till I come.  
26 And he who overcomes, and keeps aMy works until the end, bto him I will give power over the nations— 
27 ‘Hea shall rule them with a rod of iron;
They shall be dashed to pieces like the potter’s vessels’— as I also have received from My Father;  
28 and I will give him athe morning star.  
29 “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’
