2:24 Now I say to the rest of you in Thyatira, to you who do not hold to her teaching and have not learned Satan’s so-called deep secrets, ‘I will not impose any other burden on you,
'Now I say to
Clearly these words are no longer for all the churches as in the last verse. They are exclusively for Thyatira members.
Those who did not hold to Jezebel's teachings (but were afraid to do anything about it?).
This may be a direct reference to how Jezebel portrayed her cult - as the "deep secrets" of God. In truth, apostle Paul indicates the "deep things" of God are made known to us by the SPIRIT (1 Corinthians 2:10-16).
Furthermore, our body (sexual favors was a part of Jezebel's teachings) must follow our Spirit (1 Corinthians 6:15-20).
‘I will not impose ANY OTHER BURDEN ON YOU,
The true believers at Thyatira are told they must hang on; the Lord does not place any other grievance on their backs. As in 2 Timothy 2:15-19, these believers are to handle accurately the Word of Truth. Jezebel tried with success to mix in her word with the Word of Truth. Her logic may have gone something like this: The only effective way to confront Satan is to enter his strongholds and experience the real nature of sin. Then when you accept Christ, you will really appreciate the act of grace that His death and resurrection was. Sad to say, like the Thyatirans, many so-called Christians live a life-style in the "deep things" of Satan while expecting God to share His "deep things" with them. It makes no sense at all!!!!
