Happily, Jesus can condemn those in Thyatira. He says: "I know your deeds, and your love and your faith and ministry and endurance, and that your deeds of late are more than those formerly." (Revelation 2:19) Unlike the Ephesians, the anointed Christians there have not lost their first love for Jehovah. Their faith is strong. Furthermore, their deeds are more than those formerly, and like the three preceding congregations, the Christians in Thyatira are enduring. How typical of the 54,000 and more congregations of Jehovah's Witnesses throughout the earth today! Love for Jehovah shines through, as a spirit of zeal in the ministry permeates the organization, stimulating young and old. An increasing number expend themselves as pioneers, thus using the glorious hope of God's incoming Kingdom! - MATTHEW 24:14; MARK 13:10.
