Synagogues of Satan (Letter To The Churches)

In this live stream, we're confronting one of the most challenging passages in the Book of Revelation. What did Jesus mean when He referred to a "synagogue of Satan" in His message to the church in Smyrna? We'll break down Revelation 2:8-11 to uncover the original context and its powerful meaning for us today.

We will explore:
- **The Identity of Christ:** Why Jesus introduces Himself as "the First and the Last, who died and came to life" to a suffering church .
- **True Riches vs. Earthly Poverty:** How the church in Smyrna could be materially poor but spiritually "rich" in God's eyes .
- **The "Synagogue of Satan" Explained:** A look at the historical and theological context of this phrase. We'll discuss who these slanderers were and why this is **not a condemnation of all Jewish people**, but a specific critique of a group that claimed a religious identity while acting in opposition to God's people .
- **The Call to Faithfulness:** Jesus' command to "be faithful unto death" and the incredible promise of the "crown of life" .

**Join the conversation** as we uncover the enduring hope and encouragement in this letter to a persecuted church and learn what it means to be an overcomer.
