Revelation 2:18-28 (New International Version)
View In My BibleTo the Church in Thyatira
18 "To the angel of the church in Thyatira1 write: These are the words of the Son of God,2 whose eyes are like blazing fire and whose feet are like burnished bronze.3 19 I know your deeds,4 your love and faith, your service and perseverance, and that you are now doing more than you did at first. 20 Nevertheless, I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel,5 who calls herself a prophetess. By her teaching she misleads my servants into sexual immorality and the eating of food sacrificed to idols.6 21 I have given her time7 to repent of her immorality, but she is unwilling.8 22 So I will cast her on a bed of suffering, and I will make those who commit adultery9 with her suffer intensely, unless they repent of her ways. 23 I will strike her children dead. Then all the churches will know that I am he who searches hearts and minds,10 and I will repay each of you according to your deeds.11 24 Now I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan's so-called deep secrets (I will not impose any other burden on you):12 25 Only hold on to what you have13 until I come.14 26 To him who overcomes15 and does my will to the end,16 I will give authority over the nations17-- 27 'He will rule them with an iron scepter; he will dash them to pieces like pottery18 -- just as I have received authority from my Father. 28 I will also give him the morning star.19Scripture quoted by permission.
