The Corrupt Church

¹⁸ “And to the ^[a]angel of the church in Thyatira write,

‘These things says the Son of God, ^(A)who has eyes like a flame of fire, and His feet like fine brass:

¹⁴ His head and ^(A)hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and ^(B)His eyes like a flame of fire; ^15 (C)His feet were like fine brass, as if refined in a furnace, and ^(D)His voice as the sound of many waters;

¹¹ saying, ^[a]“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” and, “What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches ^[b]which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”

^35 (A)The Father loves the Son, and has given all things into His hand. ^36 (B)He who believes in the Son has everlasting life; and he who does not believe the Son shall not see life, but the ^(C)wrath of God abides on him.”

^32 (A)He who did not spare His own Son, but ^(B)delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?

⁴ and ^(A)declared to be the Son of God with power according ^(B)to the Spirit of holiness, by the resurrection from the dead.

³⁶ do you say of Him ^(A)whom the Father sanctified and ^(B)sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ ^(C)because I said, ‘I am ^(D)the Son of God’?

²⁵ Most assuredly, I say to you, the hour is coming, and now is, when ^(A)the dead will hear the voice of the Son of God; and those who hear will live.
