Revelation 2:12-17

Jan 3, 2021    Pastor Steve Feden

We will pick up in Revelation 2:12-17 and visit the city of Pergamos!

In standard fashion, Jesus starts with praise for this church that was doing ministry in an interesting place - where Satan's throne was! Jesus wants to make sure we know that, so He mentions it twice. That is scary and exciting all at once! If you wanted to plant or pastor a church, would you choose a place like that!?

Despite their difficult location, it was not an excuse of the problems they were experiencing. This church needed to be CAREFUL! Careful with what? Not their presence in Pergamos, but with their pulpit! There were some things being taught in that church that validated sin and compromise! In fact, if Jesus says there is something He hates, I want to know and avoid it!

Ok, so....what is the medical picture above all about? How is Pergamos the place of Satan's throne? How are these things linked? That's what we will talk about Sunday!

VIEW AND SEE....and connect the dots!
