Thyatira: The Divergent Disciples
Revelation 2:18-29 Son of God with eyes like fire Seeing every thought, deed, and desire, And feet like brass through judgment passed For us, yet Judge Whose verdict lasts* – You always see and call out truth Straight to the core; it’s Your love’s proof Wed to Your wise and holy gaze. Thyatira’s church and our own days Both need Your words so desperately, If conquerors with You we’d be. Right is right and always so, And to some teachers we say “No.” For tolerance can go too far, And we must side with where You are; The line of Your authority Must by Your church respected be. Holding fast to Your Word faithfully, Help us be true ‘til You we see In all Your glory, dear Morning Star, Wholly His Who for us bears nail scars. *John 5:22
