Revelation 2:8-11
Recipient of Words: Angel (Messenger, Pastor) of the Church in Smyrna
Praise: In Afflictions and Poverty - Yet Rich!
Reproach: Slander
Warning: Test of the devil
Reward Promise: Crown of Life – No Second Death(=Lake of Fire)
To the Church in Smyrna
8“To the angel of the church in Smyrna write:
These are the Words of Him Who is the First and the Last, Who
died and came to life again.
9 I know
your afflictions and your poverty—yet you are rich! I know the slander
of those who say they are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
10
Do
not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put
some of you in prison to test you, and you will suffer persecution for ten
days. Be faithful, even to the point of death, and I will give you the Crown of Life.
11
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the
churches. He who overcomes will not be hurt at all by the second death.
