[§25] Rev 2:18-19: Commendations to the Saints in Thyatira

This podcast discusses and explains the content of the verses in Revelation 2:18-19. These verses are part of John’s fourth letter to the church at Thyatira and they contain the commendations of Christ to the saints in that City. The Thyatirans were commended for their improved works of charity, service, faith, and patience in a city where the worship of the sun god Apollo was prevalent. To counter this pagan influence, Christ addressed himself to the Thyatiran saints as the Son of God. He also described his omniscience and power over paganism as one who “hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass.” Revelation 2:18: 00:02:15 Revelation 2:19: 00:25:26
