Thyatira — Finding Jesus (Revelation 2:18-29)

/

The church is a mess, but it’s where we find Jesus.

  • The Church is Messy (vv. 19-24)

  • Jesus is Found in the Midst of a Messy Church (vv. 18-24;

  • Revelation 1:12-20)

  • Our Only Hope is to Hold On to Jesus

Discussion Starters

Monday—Who was Jezebel? What is she famous for? What is the danger with tolerating false teachers?

Tuesday—How is the church portrayed in the seven letters of Revelation 2 and 3? Is it perfect, pristine, and attractive or messy and suffering? So why should anyone join the church?

Wednesday—How is Jesus described in the letter to the church in Thyatira? What is significant about being a Prophet? A King? A Priest?

Thursday—What does it mean to hold fast to what you have (v. 25)? What are three things you are called to surrender to Jesus?

Friday—Why is it significant that the letter to Thyatira is at the center of the seven letters? In what ways is it a summary and conclusion to the other six letters?
