Revelations Chapter 2 on Repentance

The church, meaning all Christians need to understand where we are falling from Jesus straight way and repent.

Revelation 2:12-29

Strengths of church in Pregamum

  1. Strengths: Loyal to Christ / Refused to deny Him. These are Christians who stand up for Jesus. Even sharing the Gospel.
  2. Faults: But they tolerated evil / Idolatry and sexual immortality. God hates these sins.
  3. Instructions: Jesus instructed them to Repent.
  4. Promise: Jesus promises them if they Repent He will give them Hidden manna and Stone with a new name.

Church of Thyatria

  1. Strengths: Good deeds, Love, service, faith, patience, maturing.
  2. Faults: tolerated cult Idolatry Idolatry and sexual immortality
  3. Instructions: Repent and hold fast.
  4. Promise: Jesus promises them divine authority and the morning star.

Jesus knows the minds and the hearts of all mankind. Nothing hidden.

Staying as a little child with God and being in a repentful spirit when the Holy Spirit shows us where we are falling short of Gods way is the Key to overcome. Jesus will always forgive. 🙏

This does not give us the freedom to sin but a understanding that Jesus has forgiveness when we fall, if we ask sincerely and we seek to change. His mercies are new every morning.
