Revelation 2:16
Compare all
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.

Revelation 2:16

If not, I come to thee - who wilt not wholly escape when I punish them. And will fight with them - Not with the Nicolaitans, who are mentioned only by the by, but the followers of Balaam. With the sword of my mouth - With my just and fierce displeasure. Balaam himself was first withstood by the angel of the Lord with "his sword drawn," Numbers 22:23, and afterwards "slain with the sword," Numbers 31:8.
