Jesus The Object Of Faith

Contributed by John Mccurry on Nov 27, 2007

Thyatira — When Faithfulness Is Subverted Series

Contributed by David Dunn on Jan 31, 2026

Thyatira warns that faithfulness can be redirected when tolerance replaces discernment and Christ’s authority is quietly shared with other voices.

I’ll catch you.” He knew the boy had to jump to save his life. All the boy could see, however, was flame, smoke, and blackness. As ...read more
