I have a few things against you: You have people there who hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to entice the Israelites to sin by eating food sacrificed to idols and by committing sexual immorality. Likewise you also have those who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans. Revelation 2:14-15
It was not my intention to share these Scriptures today; I truly believe it is from the Holy Spirit for those who need to hear.
The church in Pergamum had many good things about them - they remained true to His name, they did not renounce the faith in Christ.
Yet, they went wrong in who they were associating with - there were people who believed in idols and those who followed false teaching, among them.
So, whom are we associating with today? Do we stand firm in our faith that Jesus is the only Way? Or do we reason saying there may be more than one "ways"? Do we know the the Truth from the Scriptures or waver at every new "doctrine" out there? Do we stay clear of idols and sexual immorality that are justified by the false teachers? Are we sensitive to the Word of correction the Holy Spirit reminds us about or ignore it and carry on our lives in sin?
I am the Lord who brought you up out of Egypt to be your God; therefore be holy, because I am holy. Leviticus 11:45
Just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do. I Peter 1:15
