Revelation 2:18

Revelation 2:18

18 And unto the angel of the Church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;

1.      Who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire

Christ, reminding Thyatira that He is the Son of God, looks at this church with eyes of blazing fire. This is definitely not a good way to be regarded by Jesus. During His ministry that looks was reserved for those Pharisees and scribes who claimed to be God’s servants, but who were hypocrites. Is this the problem with Thyatira?

1.1.   EYES

    It is an evident that, what the behaviors of the people are? Bible says nothing is hidden to our Lord eyes.

HEBREWS 4:13 AND NO CREATURE IS HIDDEN FROM HIS SIGHT, BUT ALL ARE NAKED AND EXPOSED TO THE EYES OF HIM TO WHOM WE MUST GIVE ACCOUNT.

1.2.   Like unto a flame of fire

            Apostle John saw Jesus eyes were looks like flame of fire; this is description of His state. Like the same prophet Daniel also saw Son of Man eyes like flaming torches.

DANIEL 10:6 HIS BODY WAS LIKE CHRYSOLITE, HIS FACE LIKE LIGHTNING, HIS EYES LIKE FLAMING TORCHES, HIS ARMS AND LEGS LIKE THE GLEAM OF BURNISHED BRONZE, AND HIS VOICE LIKE THE SOUND OF A MULTITUDE.

REVELATION 19:12 HIS EYES ARE LIKE BLAZING FIRE, AND ON HIS HEAD ARE MANY CROWNS. HE HAS A NAME WRITTEN ON HIM THAT NO ONE KNOWS BUT HE HIMSELF.

In initial days Thyatira church did very good things, this we can understand when we reading the scripture revelation 2:19. But the following days this church last its divine and it accepted the false teaching. Because of their diversion, Jesus had anger against this church people. How much He got anger against this church we can able to understand through his red (flaming) eyes.

2.      His feet are like fine brass

            This phrase is clearly explained to us how our Lord God hate the evil workers. After saw out Lord God’s wonderers and His grace also many people not ready to repent. If they continue their evil work He surly treads upon them. The Israelites saw the many wonderers of Lord our God, even though they were not turn towards to God. Bible says in the book of Micah 1:5 and Malachi 4:3 we can understand this 

MICAH 1:2 HEAR, YOU PEOPLES, ALL OF YOU;^[1] PAY ATTENTION, O EARTH, AND ALL THAT IS IN IT, AND LET THE LORD GOD BE A WITNESS AGAINST YOU, THE LORD FROM HIS HOLY TEMPLE.

MICAH 1:3 FOR BEHOLD, THE LORD IS COMING OUT OF HIS PLACE, AND WILL COME DOWN AND TREAD UPON THE HIGH PLACES OF THE EARTH.

MICAH 1:4 AND THE MOUNTAINS WILL MELT UNDER HIM, AND THE VALLEYS WILL SPLIT OPEN, LIKE WAX BEFORE THE FIRE, LIKE WATERS POURED DOWN A STEEP PLACE.

MICAH 1:5 ALL THIS IS FOR THE TRANSGRESSION OF JACOB AND FOR THE SINS OF THE HOUSE OF ISRAEL. WHAT IS THE TRANSGRESSION OF JACOB? IS IT NOT SAMARIA? AND WHAT IS THE HIGH PLACE OF JUDAH? IS IT NOT JERUSALEM?

MALACHI 4:3 AND YOU SHALL TREAD DOWN THE WICKED, FOR THEY WILL BE ASHES UNDER THE SOLES OF YOUR FEET, ON THE DAY WHEN I ACT, SAYS THE LORD OF HOSTS.
