Church in Thyatira 2
Rev 2:21 And I gave her time to repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent.
God gave the worldly, carnal and heretic church leaders the chance to return to the truth but it was not reciprocated because mammon is the idol of their lives. They relegated God for the lust of their eyes, the lust of their flesh and the pride of life. They were an imitation of the Pharisees of old, justifying their rich and luxurious lifestyles with heresies and self-serving excuses.
Luke 16:14-15 Now the Pharisees, who were lovers of money, also heard all these things, and they derided Him. And He said to them, "You are those who justify yourselves before men, but God knows your hearts. For what is highly esteemed among men is an abomination in the sight of God.
Wolves will not Repent
Heb 6:4-6 For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame.
Wolves or false prophets will not repent for they have lost their salvation and they must be cast out from your church. They are actually the devil's agents.
Rev 2:22-23 Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of their deeds. I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who searches the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works.
False prophetess will be stricken with incurable chronic illnesses and her followers will suffer great tragedies. In addition, death is inevitable for her children; her supporters and church leaders, that is. All the tribulations are meant to expose their falsehood and to grant forgiveness to repented hearts. God cannot be deceived because he can see through our hearts.
Rev 2:24-25 "Now to you I say, and to the rest in Thyatira, as many as do not have this doctrine, who have not known the depths of Satan, as they say, I will put on you no other burden. But hold fast what you have till I come."
Depths of Satan
God forbids Christians from understanding the mysteries and the depth of Satan, demons and evil spirits. God Himself will battle with them, He will not encumber us, weak human beings.
Christians are given the authority over Satan and his evil spirits - that in the name of Jesus we can cast out Satan and his evil spirits. When we trust Jesus by using His name, Jesus, Himself (not us) will cast out the evil spirits.
Unfortunately, proud and carnal Christian leaders have been misled by Satan to study the mysteries of Satan from worldly, Satanic and demonic sources. Using the abominable doctrines of demons, they were deceived to fight Satan and lose their faith in Jesus with their failures. Put your trust in Jesus for a sure victory.
I Tim 4:1-2 Now the Spirit expressly says that in latter times some will depart from the faith, giving heed to deceiving spirits and doctrines of demons, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their own conscience seared with a hot iron,
Rewards for Overcomers
Rev 2:26-29 "And he who overcomes, and keeps My works until the end, to him I will give power over the nations— 'He shall rule them with a rod of iron; they shall be dashed to pieces like the potter's vessels'— as I also have received from My Father; and I will give him the morning star. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches."
Overcomers will be bestowed with the status of kingship that empowers them to rule over the nations together with Christ the Morning Star.
Rev 22:16 "I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star."
