The Church Of Thyatira: The Consequences Of Appeasing Jezebel

Contributed by Donald Whitchard on Dec 23, 2023

Thyatira was the smallest of the seven cities mentioned in Revelation, Chapters 2 and 3. It is also the city about which little is known. Yet, it is to this church that Jesus addresses His longest letter.

Thyatira was founded by the Macedonian conqueror Alexander the Great some 300 years before the birth of Christ. The name Thyatira means "unceasing sacrifice". It more than likely received this name because it was a military "buffer city", located some 40 miles southeast of ...read more

God Of The Bible

Contributed by Pastor Renji George on Jul 24, 2024

Thinking correctly about God is of utmost importance because a false idea about God is idolatry. It is much easier to know doctrines than it is to know God - because you don't have to pay a price to know the doctrines.

The first and primary evidence for the existence of God is the existence of the creation. It is only natural that man, being a reasoning creature, should ask questions about the creation and the creator. Obviously, the universe and all that in it, had not been created by man, and yet its design ...read more
