THYATIRA

Revelation 2:18-20
"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;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. 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 unto idols."

A woman, Jezebel, was living at
that time. She was full of the devil,
yet the church tolerated her.
[She is not the one of the Old
Testament in I Kings 19.]
