Revelation Part 8: The Church in Pergamum
Join Pastor Jason and Financial Advisor Benjie in this episode of A Financial Advisor and Pastor Walk Into a Bar as they explore Revelation 2’s message to the church in Pergamum. In this session, they delve into the rich tapestry of Pergamum—a royal city known not only for its strategic and cultural importance but also for its overwhelming pagan influences. Discover how this inland hub, home to temples honoring Caesar Augustus, healing sanctuaries with snake imagery, and even Dionysus, became a battleground of faith.
Against the backdrop of a city where “Satan’s throne” looms large, Jesus commends the believers for holding fast to his name. Yet, He also issues a stern warning against tolerating false teachings—specifically those linked to Balaam’s misguided counsel and the seductive doctrines of the Nicolaitans, which tempted believers toward compromise and immorality.
With their signature blend of historical insight and practical spiritual reflection, Jason and Benjie invite you to consider how ancient challenges mirror today’s struggles.
Open your Bible, listen in, and discover how history and spiritual depth meet in Pergamum.
