Pergamum: The Tolerant Church
Now we are at the third church in this series of seven. This letter leaves us with a lot of questions. We trust you will learn something new working through this passage yourself and listening to Pastor Rodney Schuler.
- What three things are unique to Pergamum?
- What was a practice in the culture of Pergamos that was identical to Smyrna's just taken much farther?
- Was there a threat to the lives of the Christians at Pergamum?
- What is "testimony" synonymous to in the Greek?
- What cultural indicators do you see in our daily lives? (i.e. "Co-exist bumper stickers)
- How is the story of Balaam connected with this church?
- How was the church of Corinth similar with the church at Pergamum?
- Can one man or woman's sin impact the whole church?
- Does v.17 have a warning to all churches?
- How much of the future Millennium Kingdom is connected with this passage?
- If there is true repentance, then can there be true forgiveness?
