  4. Revelations ~Chapter 2/Churches Listen Up
But he does have one bone to pick with them—they've lost that
loving feeling. In the beginning, they were filled with love, and
now they've kind of lost their passion for him and each other.
Threats of death or banishment will do that to you. He wants them
to remember how good things used to be and go back to that. If they
don't do this, Jesus is going to take their candlestick and chuck
it out. Too bad, those looked expensive. But if they do they right
thing, they're going to eat from the tree of life in Paradise with
God. So, a pretty nice reward. A Message for Smyrna Jesus knows the
people in Smyrna aren't rich. But, hey, mo' money, mo' problems,
right? He knows they've been turned into the Roman authorities by
some of the Jewish people (because Jews don't consider Christians
as part of the synagogue anymore). This is bad, but they shouldn't
worry about what's about to happen next. Some of them are going to
be thrown in jail—oh, sure, nothing to worry about. If they're
faithful 'til death (wait, so now they're going to be arrested and
killed?), Jesus will give them a crown of life to wear. Well, maybe
it's a really fancy crown. But if they don't stay faithful to him,
they're going to receive eternal punishment. That crown is starting
to look better and better. A Message for Pergamum Jesus understands
that they're living near Satan's throne. (Pergamum is by the seat
of the Roman government—subtle, Jesus.) But, he knows they're
keeping the faith anyway. They didn't pretend not to be Christians
when one of them was killed a while back. Nice job, guys. However…
there are some people in the church who are still follow.
