Pergamum (Revelation 2:12–17)

This week, we continue our series titled "Letters to the Church", where we are looking at the seven letters in the book of Revelation and the message they have for the church back then, the church of today, and our own church. This week, we study the letter to the church of Pergamum.

Jesus commends the church for their faithfulness in the midst of a dark and oppressive environment. But the ever present pagan acts in the city were practiced by some in the church. Jesus calls them to repent from false teachers and false attitudes of indifference. Like the church of Pergamum, we too are constantly under influence by the culture around us and should not let the church be compromised or tolerant of sin.
