In this thought-provoking sermon, we explore the message to the church in Thyatira from Revelation 2:18-29. The message to Thyatira is a timely reminder for Christians to be vigilant against the alluring, deceptive nature of sin and how Jesus can help us overcome it.We begin by providing historical context, painting a vivid picture of the early church in Thyratira – a thriving trade center known for its dyeing, weaving, and metalworking industries. This bustling city also had a plethora of pagan cults and religious practices, which greatly influenced the believers' lives.Our focus then shifts to the spiritual symbolism of Babylon, representing the worldly systems and values that seduce believers away from their faith. We unpack how the church in Thyatira tolerated the teachings of Jezebel, who lured followers into sexual immorality and idolatry. This tolerance is a warning to us, as Christians today, to be wary of permitting similar influences in our lives.Support the showThe Village Church's sermon podcast is a weekly source of inspiration and guidance for the community.

Key terms:1.  Revelation2.  Resolution3.  RevolutionIf you follow Jesus, you can't have a bad day.

In Jeremiah 1, God trained him to hear and interpret prophetic words. In this video, we learn from how God trained Jeremiah in three parts:1. Revelation2. Interpretation3. Application

Proverbs 12:18 As a believer in Jesus Christ, do you still possess the sweetness of the Lord?  You'll note, I said “still”, and that's because every one of us that are truly Christian have a day and an hour when we were born the second time from above.  Just as a certain day marks our physical birth, so a certain day marks our spiritual birth.  Do you remember that glad moment, in the hour of your coming to Christ when the light of heavens glory filled your heart?  When the love of Christ melted your being, and the love of God was shed abroad in your hearts?  What went wrong, from whence did you begin to lose the sweet aroma of His being?  I trust that this message will be of help in returning you to your first love.

Introduction to Book of RevelationRevelation 1:1-4 May 19, 2019I. Introduction:A. When I think that I am starting a series this morning on the book of Revelationthere are two polar opposite thoughts in my mind:1. First, the excitement of learning together each week from this very amazingand important book2. Secondly, is terror thinking “Am I nuts thinking I can preach through thisvery amazing and important book”B. Let’s jump right in as this week I want to introduce you to the book, then nextweek I want to preach through the whole book in one message.• Turn to Rev 1:1 – the last book of the Bible.II. Introduction to BookA. Read 1:1a- Note this is not the book of Revelations but the Revelation! Thatmeans to properly understand this book we need to look at the book as one wholerevelation rather than a series of different revelations throughout the book.1. Read 1:1a-b – The revelation is concerning Jesus Christ.2. Now listen to 1c.3. To get our heads on straight about this book we need to understand right fromthe beginning that the book is foremost about Jesus and the future eventsreveal something to us about Jesus. This will become even clearer as we seethe book as a whole next week.4. But so many people miss God’s intended purpose of this book because theyare so intrigued by the end time prophecies that they miss that theseprophecies are revealing something to us about Jesus!B. We see in this verse that God gave this Revelation to Jesus, who gave it to anangel, who gave it to John to show God’s bondservants! Read 1b and d.C. In v2, we see what John will be doing in this book. Read v 21. Testified – That means that a person with direct knowledge of somethingprovides information about what they know, heard and saw!2. He is going to provide for us two things he has direct knowledge of:a) The Word of God – He is not referring to the Bible here but the idea of aprophetic utterance from God just like it is used in the Old Testamentwhen God spoke inspired utterances to prophets.b) Secondly, the testimony of Jesus – this is the content about what helearned about Jesus through the things that the angel showed him.3. This reinforces again that this book is primarily about the revelation of Jesusnot the end time events. Actually, the end time events reveal Jesus to us andit may be said that at the heart of all prophecies, they point to Jesus; they areteaching us something about Jesus!a) Read Rev 19:10db) Robert Deffinbaugh says this – Christ is preeminent in prophecy. Thingsto come are incidental because all of those things which are to comeoccur at the power, the authority and the dispatch of Jesus ChristHimself!1. Some are going to be troubled by what they learn about Jesus in this book.a) If you like the picture of Jesus we get in the gospels, a true picture ofJesus as the sacrificial lamb, the one who is closer to us than a brother,the one whom I can put my head on his shoulder at the beach as we listento Christian music together about God’s love for me, you might be a bittrouble by the revelation of Jesus in this bookb) The same John who put his head on Jesus’ chest at the last supper is thesame one who wrote this book and this time when he saw Jesus in Hisglory he fell at His feet like a dead man.c) In this book, we will see Jesus as a judge pouring out His wrath upon allof mankind who has rejected Him. We will see Him as a warrior whosheds a lot of blood, we will see Him as a king who rules the nationswith a rod of iron and we will see Him as our shepherd who protects,blesses and rewards His followers!B. Look at the blessing that is promised to us as we go through this book. Read v3.1. The key to the blessing is not just reading or hearing this book but heeding it,keeping what it teaches us.2. So that raised a question for me – what is there to heed in this book, as it justseemed to be a book about a lot of information about Jesus and end times.C. Actually, the next verse gives us some insight into this question. Read v4a,111. This book was written to the seven churches in Asia. Note the whole bookwas written to them not just chapters 2 & 3.2. When we learn a bit more about these churches, we will understand a bitmore of what we are to heed and why this book was written.3. This book was written approximately in 95-96AD during the reign of theRoman emperor Domitian.4. His reign was chiefly known as a reign of terrora) It is alleged that he insisted on his own divinity, demanded worship ofhimself and persecuted Christians who did not participate in the imperialreligion.5. And while they were suffering persecution from the outside, they werestruggling on the inside with their own purity and loyalty to Jesus.D. So when you put all of this together this is my stated theme and purpose of thebook:1. Theme – The return of Jesus Christ in glory as judge and king to destroy eviland set up His kingdom2. Purpose – To encourage the seven churches to persevere in holiness,allegiance to and worship of Jesus.3. Thus, the “heeding” in this book is made up of the exhortations to the sevenchurches and visions and interludes of worship throughout the book.4. Again, we will see this a bit clearer next week in one message of the wholebook at once.• There areII. Two other key purposes for the book of Revelation!A. The consummation of all the Biblical prophecies are found in the book ofRevelation.1. Apart from the book of Revelation, we find no complete propheticfulfillment.a) Listen to 10:7b) Read 1 Peter 1:10-11 – The two major categories of prophecies can bebroken down into prophecies about Jesus’ suffering or prophecies aboutJesus’ glory!(1) The book of Revelation is prophecies about His glory!(2) In His first coming, He fulfilled the prophecies about Hissufferings.c) Turn to Acts 3:(1) Read 17-19 – suffering prophecies fulfilled - first coming(2) Read 20-21 – When Jesus returns He will fulfill the propheciesabout the restoration of all things. Thus the book of Revelation2. The major categories of prophecies are found in the covenants that God madewith Israel, the particular prophecies in the Old Testament find their roots inthese covenant promises. We learn in Revelation about the fulfilment ofthese covenant promises. We see from:a) Abraham – a land forever, God being their God foreverb) Deuteronomy – restoration to the land, Israel’s enemies being judged andthe nation receiving full blessingsc) David – a forever king, reigning forever over a forever kingdomd) New Covenant – Israel being saved and abiding blessings in the land.B. And that leads us to the other key purpose of the book of Revelation and that isthe consummation of the story of the Bible. We learn the end of the story thatGod restores to man what was lost at the fall and much more! Without the book ofRevelation, the Bible would be incomplete.1. In the beginning of the story we see in Gen 1-2 that …a) God created the heavens and the earth – a perfect and fruitfulenvironmentb) God created man with a body perfectly suited for this earthc) God created man with a soul perfectly suited for a relationship with God,self and others.d) God created man with a spirit that was alive to and walked with God.e) God ruled as king over manf) Man was a loving subject of God’s kingdomg) God gave man the responsibility to reign over His creation.2. But something happened in Genesis 3 that changed everything; Satan, God’s#1 enemy, who rebelled against God, was seeking to get man to rebel againstGod’s rule over them as his king. He succeeded by deceiving man to drinkthe poison – sin which left deep consequences upon himself and the earth.a) The earth was cursed and subjected to futility resulting in it not being asfruitful as God intended.b) Man’s perfect body was subjected to death and all the sickness anddiseases that come with it.c) Every area of man’s soul was affected, it became depraved.d) Man’s spirit, the source of life with God died. Life with God was cutoff.e) Satan became the god of this worldf) Man’s membership was transferred from the kingdom of God to thekingdom of Satang) Man’s reign over God’s creation was perverted.3. From Genesis 3 on we read about:a) Both man and the earth being under a curse and our relationship withourselves, others and God has been deeply affected!b) But we also read a story about the fulfillment of a promise that Godmade that He would send a ‘seed’ someone born of a woman who wouldtotally crush Satan and deliver man from the mess that sin created in hislife!4. For many thousands of years this condition and conflict continues until wecome to Revelation 19 & 20 where God finally, fully and forever deals withsin and Satan.5. Then we come to Revelation 21-22, where once again sin and Satan have nopart just like Genesis 1-2. The curse upon man and the earth will be totallyremoved forever. And we find:a) A new heaven and a new earth, this is a perfect and fruitful environmentfor God’s eternal purposes. Read Revelation 21:1b) We will have resurrected bodies that are perfectly suited to live on thiseternal earth.c) With sin removed, we will live in perfect fellowship and harmony withGod, self and one another. Read 21:3d) Man shall live with God forever Read 21:4be) God will be king forever with His throne right here on earth among Hispeople. Read 22:1,3f) The only people there will be members of God’s kingdom. Read 21:27g) Man will be reigning with God forever and ever. Read Revelation 22:5C. The story of the Bible is God glorifying Himself through Jesus the Redeemer byrestoring His original plan for man and the earth by reversing the effects of sinand the curse upon them and God Himself reigning forever as King.III. ConclusionA. In closing, I want to pray for us Titus 2:11-13. Read.1. May God give MVC a heart to focus on Jesus and not trying to solve the endtimes puzzle of who’s who and when will it happen!

SCROLL DOWN TO SERMON AUDIO Here are sermon notes to aid in following the audio: Where Was Jesus After The Cross  Luke 23:39-46 The Apostles’ Creed after A.D. 650, includes the phrase, “he descended into hell,” meaning that Jesus, between the crucifixion and the resurrection went to the place of punishment, or possibly a place of waiting for Old Testament believers. Let us consider this in contrast to the inspired Word of God. SCRIPTURE USED AS PROOF TEXTS   Acts 2:27 (Psalm 16:10) Romans 10:6-7 (Deuteronomy 30:12-13) Ephesians 4:8-9 1Peter 3:18-20 1Peter 4:6 THE OPPOSITION OF THE BIBLE “… because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell [sheol], neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.” Psalm 16:10 KJV Acts 2:27 NIV “Because you will not abandon me to the grave [hades], nor will you let your Holy One see decay” Both Hebrew word, sheol and Greek word, hades, can mean “the grave” or “death” Fits the context >>> Christ’s body was raised from the grave, whereas David’s was not Peter’s point: David’s body is dead and buried still (v.29), David was prophesying about Jesus, a descendant of David in flesh who is indeed resurrected and seated on his throne (vv.30-31) Romans 10:6-7 “Do not say, ‘Who will ascend… or Who will descend into the abyss?’ …to bring Christ up…” Does not say Christ is or has been in hell >>> Rather forbids the silly questions Used as an example of idea of Christ being beyond reach of human beings (He is not) Ephesians 4:8-9 “… ‘He ascended,’… he had descended into the lower parts of the earth?” NIV expresses thus: “… he also descended to the lower, earthly regions?” >>> acceptable understanding of Greek  = “lower regions which are earth” (the city of Chicago = the city which is Chicago) 1Peter 3:18-20 “being put to death in the flesh, but made alive in the spirit, in which he went and preached to spirits in prison, because they formerly did not obey… in the days of Noah…” Peter does not claim Jesus preached to all spirits >>> only those who formerly did not obey … during the building of the ark. That would be a small group in hell. Why only those sinners? Offer second chance? Or Nanna Nanna? God takes no delight in death of wicked Eze.33:11 There is no second chance at salvation Luke16:26 (great chasm); Heb. 10:26-27(after rejecting Christ > no sacrifice); 9;27 (die > judgment) Context = always be ready to share your hope 15 [That urgency would be diluted if there were a second chance] Preaching to fallen angels? >>> some believe this would fit context of Peter encouraging folks suffering persecution >>> ≈ (1) your real persecutors are demons (2) other demons are now suffering (3) your demon persecutors will someday get what coming them Best Explanation (Augustine) >>> Noah preached in the Spirit of Christ as he built the ark (2Peter 2:5). Now those who rejected are now in prison in hell. 1Peter 4:6 “…why the gospel was preached even to those who are dead…” >>> No second chance at salvation THEREFORE The preaching must have been while they were still alive on earth Jesus, from the cross: “Today…with me in Paradise (Lk23:43) Paradise ≠Heaven? >>> 2Corinthians 12:4(v.2); Revelation2:7(vv.22:2,14) Jesus had to suffer more than the cross? Jn19:30; Lk23:46 Jesus paid it all >>> to the last penny on the cross Matthew5:25-26 >>> the last penny is never paid in Hell (or people would be released) >>> Believers have had payment of the last penny imputed to them in Christ >>> those in Hell have not paid their penalty >>> those in Heaven have because they are there on the basis of what Christ did on the cross Jesus Could Not Go To Hell Because He Is Already There Hades / Tartarus / Limbo – A place to await eternal life or eternal punishment - Does Not Exist. Jesus = Lamb slain before the foundation of the world (Rev.13:8 >>> Calvary accomplished before it was endured) Old Testament (Abraham, Moses, David…) saints were saved in Christ (Rom.4:3;Gal.3:6;Jas.2:23;Jn.8:56) OR they were lost Salvation in no other Romans 3:25 “to be received” and “who had passed over” (it seemed) In case of Abraham and David and Moses >>> born in sin and then God allows them into heaven with no propitiation for their sin Seemed God was violating his own character >>> blessing rather than punishing them by “passing over” sin. Jesus crucified demonstrated what God had promised before the foundation of the earth >>> Genesis 3:15 Nahum 1:3; Exodus 23:7 --- God never acquits the guilty No one is --- neither saved completely nor lost completely No categories of: “nearly or sort of saved” / “not saved but not lost” Today, you are either lost and bound for hell or saved and a citizen of heaven, bound for your home with Christ.  You can believe God and be righteous in Christ Jesus = completely saved or…
