The Seven Churches of Revelation Part VI - Peter introduces the third Church in the series this week, the Church at Pergamum. Jesus comes to this church, announcing He is the One Who had the two-edged sword! This parish at first is commended because there is a group within the church that remains faithful to Jesus amidst being surrounded by extreme idolatry within the city. The throne of Satan, as well as the emperor's worship, contends against the people of God. There is also a faithful bishop, Antipas, who gives his life up to martyrdom rather than compromise the Faith. Just as those saints of old had to reject the temptation of idolatry, so too, must we in this 21st-century western culture, be aware of the idols that surround us, and reject them. Jesus was very aware of the lifestyle of His people at the church at Pergamum and He evaluated it. So, too, He does with us and our parish!
