Jesus sees more than reputation—He sees reality. In Revelation 2:18–20, the Son of God with eyes “like unto a flame of fire” praises Thyatira’s “works…charity…service…faith…patience,” and says “the last to be more than the first” (Rev 2:19). Part 1 highlights what Jesus commends: gospel-driven mercy, compassionate ministry, and steady endurance—while warning that love must never become tolerance of sin or false doctrine. Learn what Christ praises, and pursue a church He approves.
