Revelation 2 — Context

22

Look! I am throwing her onto a bed of violent illness, and those who commit adultery with her into terrible suffering, unless they repent of her deeds.

23

Furthermore, I will strike her followers with a deadly disease, and then all the churches will know that I am the one who searches minds and hearts. I will repay each one of you what your deeds deserve.

24

But to the rest of you in Thyatira, all who do not hold to this teaching(who have not learned the so-called“deep secrets of Satan”), to you I say: I do not put any additional burden on you.

25

However, hold on to what you have until I come.

26

And to the one who conquers and who continues in my deeds until the end, I will give him authority over the nations–

27

he will rule them with an iron rod and like clay jars he will break them to pieces,

28

just as I have received the right to rule from my Father– and I will give him the morning star.
