“And to the angel of the church in Pergamum write: These are the words of him who has the sharp two-edged sword: “I know where you are living, where Satan's throne is. Yet you are holding fast to my name, and you did not deny your faith in me even in the days of Antipas my witness, my faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan lives. But I have a few things against you: you have some there who hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the people of Israel, so that they would eat food sacrificed to idols and practice fornication. So you also have some who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans. Repent then. If not, I will come to you soon and make war against them with the sword of my mouth. Let anyone who has an ear listen to what the Spirit is saying to the churches. To everyone who conquers I will give some of the hidden manna, and I will give a white stone, and on the white stone is written a new name that no one knows except the one who receives it.

5 Days
In Revelation 2, Jesus addresses several churches. The believers at the church of Smyrna suffered severe persecution. Trials can produce trust, endurance, and spiritual richness. The believers at the church of Pergamum were a congregation that was married to the Roman and Greek belief systems. Jesus rebuked them for sexual immorality and idolatry, yet He commended them for being faithful to Him and not denying their faith.
In 100 carefully selected passages from the Bible, you will discover who Jesus is and why he is so significant – even life-transforming. Through both Old and New Testament readings, you will discover why God sent Jesus, what Jesus taught, how he treated people, why he did miracles, the meaning of his death, the significance of his resurrection, and what the Bible says about his second coming.
Joy–a deep sense of well-being, regardless of circumstances–is accessible in a far-from-perfect world. Over the next five days, I hope you’ll get a taste of how good God is, even when the world is in chaos, and find that we have every reason to celebrate, to laugh, even to throw parties as we contemplate our place in God’s beautiful kingdom.
