This podcast discusses and explains Revelation 2:14-16, where the Lord condemns the saints of Pergamos for the reasons described in these verses. The saints in Pergamos were guilty of compromising their standards, which the Lord describes as the doctrine of Balaam. This is a metaphorical reference to a Midianite prophet who used his prophetic gift for monetary profit. He taught Balak, the Moabite king, that Israel could be defeated if the Moabites befriended the Israelites and caused them to sin. Balak did so and this became a stumbling block for the Israelites who then committed grosser sins than just befriending the Moabites, including idol worship and fornication. The saints in Pergamos were also condemned for tolerating the doctrine of the Nicolaitans. Christ commands them to repent of be destroyed by the sword of his mouth.
