Revelation 2:1 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus (PERMITTED IN THE GREEK) write ; 'These things saith He That holdeth the seven stars in His right hand, Who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;
Revelation 2:2 I know thy works, and thy labor and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil, and thou hast tried them which they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:
THEY KNOW WHEN SOMEONE IS FALSE IN THE BASIS OF THEIR SYSTEM.
Revelation 2:3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for My name's sake hast labored, and hast not fainted.
Revelation 2:4 Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy FIRST LOVE (GOD).
THIS CHURCH CARES MORE ABOUT THEIR CHURCH SYSTEM THAN GOD AND HIS WORD.
Revelation 2:5 Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the FIRST WORKS (IN LEARNING THE LIVING WORD) : or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
IN OTHER WORDS, IF YOU DON'T GO BACK INTO MY WORD, I'LL CUT YOU OFF FROM THE MANY MEMBERED BODY OF CHRIST.
Revelation 2:6 But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.
HISTORY HAS NO RECORD OF THE NICOLAITANES. THEY WILL APEEAR "IN THAT DAY". ALL WE DO KNOW IS THAT, THEY ARE HATERS OF GOD.
Revelation 2:7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches ; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the TREE OF LIFE (CHRIST, REV. 22:14), which is in the midst of the Paradise of God.'
NOT EVERYONE (INCLUDING MANY CHRISTIANS) HAVE EYES TO SEE THE TRUTH.
GOD PUT BLINDERS ON SOME PEOPLE FOR THEIR OWN PROTECTION (ROMANS 11:7-10). WHY ? BECAUSE IF THEY WORSHIP SATAN KNOWNIGLY THEY WOULD HAVE COMMITTED THE UNFORGIVABLE SIN. THEY ARE TOO WEAK TO STAND UP FOR CHRIST.
Revelation 2:8 And unto the angel of the church of Smyrna write ; 'These things saith the First and the Last (START AND FINISH), Which was dead, and is alive ;
CHRIST IS PLEASED WITH THIS CHURCH.
Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty (but thou art rich), and I know THE BLASPHEMY OF THEM WHICH SAY THEY ARE JEWS, AND ARE NOT, BUT ARE THE SYNAGOGUE OF SATAN.
THIS CHURCH TEACHES THE SEEDLINE. THY KNOW WHO THE TRUE JEWS ARE.
Revelation 2:10 Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer : behold, THE DEVIL SHALL CAST SOME OF YOU INTO PRISON, THAT YE MAY BE TRIED ; AND YE SHALL HAVE TRIBULATION TEN DAYS : BE THOU FAITHFUL UNTO DEATH, AND I WILL GIVE THEE A CROWN OF LIFE.
THE ELECT CHURCH WILL GO THROUGH SATAN'S TRIBULATION.
THE TRIAL WILL BE TEN DAYS, THEREFORE, THERE IS NOT GOING TO BE A RAPTURE.
DEATH = ONE OF SATAN'S NAMES IS DEATH (HEBREWS 2:14).
Revelation 2:11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches ; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.'
THE ONES WHO HAVE BLINDERS ON, EVEN IF THEY READ VERSE 10 THEY STILL WON'T BELIEVE IT. ONLY GOD CAN REMOVE THE BLINDERS.
SECOND DEATH = THE DEATH OF THE SOUL (REV. 20).
THE ONES THAT KNOW THE TRUTH WILL OVERCOME THE SECOND DEATH (DEATH OF THE SOUL).
THE OTHER ONES WILL LEARN IN THE MILLENNIUM (CHRIST'S THOUSAND YEAR REIGN). EZEKIEL 44.
HOWEVER, THEY STILL HAVE TO BE TESTED AGAIN WHEN THE DEVIL IS RELEASED FOR A SHORT TIME (REV. 20). SOME WILL OVERCOME SOME WON'T.
Revelation 2:12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos (RAISED TO A HIGH PLACE IN THE GREEK) write ; 'These things saith He Which hath the sharp sword with two edges;
Revelation 2:13 I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is: and thou holdest fast My name, and hast not denied My faith, even in those days wherein Antipas was My faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwelleth.
THERE IS NO RECORD OF ANTIPAS BECAUSE IT HASN'T HAPENNED YET.
IN THIS CHURCH ONLY "ANTIPAS" WAS RIGHT IN GOD'S EYES. THE OTHER ONES WERE DECEIVED.
Revelation 2:14 But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.
BALAAM WAS A GOOD PROPHET BUT HE LOVED MONEY.
DON'T BEG FOR MONEY AND DO NOT PRACTICE IDOL WORSHIP IN YOUR CHURCH.
Revelation 2:15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes (IDOL WORSHIPPERS AND HATERS OF GOD ; NO RECORD OF THEM BECAUSE WE ARE TALKING ABOUT OUR TIME, OR NEAR FUTURE).
Revelation 2:16 Repent ; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of My mouth (GOD'S WORD).
Revelation 2:17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches. To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the HIDDEN MANNA (HIDDEN TRUTH), and will give him a WHITE STONE (WHITE= PURITY), and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.'
STONE = COUNT. STRONG'S CONCORDANCE (GREEK DICTIONARY) # 5585, 5586.
TO BE ABLE TO KNOW SATAN'S CHILDREN AND WHERE THEY ARE.
ANOTHER STONE THAT HAS SEVEN PAIRS OF EYES (ZECH. 3:9), IS SYMBOLIC OF GOD'S ELECTION (THE STONE THAT SEES THE TRUTH).
Revelation 2:18 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:
SYMBOLIC OF THE POWER AND STRENGTH OF HIS BODY.
Revelation 2:19 I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first (HE IS IMPRESSED WITH THEIR ACTION BUT THEY LISTEN TO JEZEBEL).
Revelation 2:20 Notwithstanding, 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 to idols.
JEZEBEL = CHASED.
THIS ONE IS A VERY RELIGIOUS CHURCH. HOWEVER, IT'S FALSE.
JEZEBEL CLAIMS TO BE A CHRISTIAN TEACHER BUT SHE IS A FAKE.
NOTE: THIS JEZEBEL IS NOT THE SAME AS THE JEZEBEL IN I KINGS 16:30.
GOD IS USING HER AS AN ANALOGY TO DESCRIBE THIS CHURCH.
Revelation 2:21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.
THIS RELIGIOUS CHURCH DOES NOT WANT TO REPENT.
Revelation 2:22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into GREAT TRIBULATION, except they repent of their deeds.
THIS CHURCH WON'T BE A VIRGIN BRIDE TO CHRIST. GOD WILL CAUSE HER TO JUMP INTO SATAN'S BED SPIRITUALLY AND BE DECEIVED.
Revelation 2:23 And I will kill her children with death (KILL SPIRITUALLY THE CONGREGATION BY BEING DECEIVED ; DEATH IS ANOTHER NAME FOR SATAN, HEBREWS 2:14); and all the churches shall know that I am He Which searcheth the reins (HE SEARCHES THE VERY INSIDE) and hearts (MINDS): and I WILL GIVE UNTO EVERYONE OF YOU ACCORDING TO YOUR WORKS (REWARDS COME FROM THE WORK YOU DO FOR HIM).
Revelation 2:24 But unto you I say, and unto the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not THIS DOCTRINE (DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN IT), and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden.
SATAN IS THE OTHER MAN (THE FIRST ONE IS CHRIST) PEOPLE WILL WORSHIP FROM THAT CHURCH.
IT'S THE GREAT APOSTASI OF THE CHURCH (MEANING, CHANGING FROM WORSHIPPING THE TRUE GOD, TO WORSHIPPING SATAN THINKING HE IS GOD).
Revelation 2:25 But that which ye have already, hold fast till I come.
AT LEAST YOU MAINTAIN THAT.
Revelation 2:26 And he that overcometh, and keepeth My works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:
Revelation 2:27 And he shall rule them (SHEPHERD THEM IN THE GREEK) with a rod of iron; and the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of My Father.
THE ONES WHO WILL FIGHT SPIRITUALLY FOR CHRIST (NO RAPTURE) UNTIL THE END HE WILL REWARD.
Revelation 2:28 And I will give him the morning star.
MORNING STAR = THE EARLY LIGHT.
CHURCHES ARE MENTIONED TILL THE END OF THIS BOOK (REV. 22:16).
Revelation 2:29 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.'
AND AGAIN, NOT EVERYONE HAS EARS TO HEAR.
THE ONLY THING CHRIST LIKED FROM THESE CHURCHES WAS MORALITY. THEY KEPT THE MORAL ASPECT IN THEIR CHURCH.
IN THIS CHAPTER, HE ONLY FOUND ONE CHURCH HE WAS PLEASED WITH.
IN THE NEXT CHAPTER, THRE IS ONE MORE HE CONSIDERED PERFECT IN HIS EYES.
DON'TMISS OUR NEXT IN DEPTH STUDY.
GOD BLESS
