Searching the Heart at Thyatira: Words for a Tolerant Church

Revelation 2:15–28 | The Seven: Revelation Churches | Trent Hunter Jesus writes to a church in a small industrial town called Thyatira. This town was a robust commercial center with trade guilds which included idolatry and immorality. This presented Christians with a problem: join the guilds and flourish economically, or stay out and embrace poverty. The church at Thyatira was not entirely faithful, and Jesus issues some hard words.
