Gentlemen,
Click on the link to download the Revelation 2:12-17 Notes on the Letter to Pergamum, plus a copy of the Revelation 2:12-17 (slideshow).
In addition, please download and print the handout, Message to Thyatira, and bring this with you Monday night for note-taking. The following questions will help introduce our initial discussion on Thyatira (2:18-29):
- Where was Thyatira located? For what was this city known?
- What is communicated by the title and character traits of Jesus noted in 2:18? (cf., 1:13-15)
- What specific things does Jesus know [οἶδα] about the Christians in Thyatira? (2:19) Do you detect a “pattern” in these items, or some sort of interconnectedness?
- Identify the warnings that Jesus issues. (2:20-23)
- Who is Jezebel? Check out the exploits of her O.T. namesake: 1 Kings 16:29-31; 18:4, 13; 19:1-2; 21:1-16, 23; 2 Kings 9:30-37.
Scott B. is providing Monday night’s dessert, so plan to arrive by 7 pm to enjoy that … and to secure a nearby parking spot!
Continue to pray for each other and the many requests that have been shared recently.
Shalom!
