The Thyatira Church had a hunger for
temporal power. The Papacy desired to
extend its rule over the whole world, and
did for many centuries. But a time came
when many in the world rejected it.

Today the Pope has sovereignty over a
few acres in Rome but that is all that is
left of his temporal dominion.

The Lord will show those who will be given
rule over the nations in time to come, they
are the overcomers. Its the overcomers who
will be the ones to rule and reign with Jesus.
