Margo's Bible Verses December 7th

On this date, December 7th Margo was reading in the book of Revelation 2:12--17 titled "The Letter to the Church in Pergamum" and in II Peter 1:19--2:11 titled "True and False Prophets".

Margo underlined the following in the commentary on the passage in Revelation:

"As the center for four idolatrous cults, Pergamum is called the city "where Satan has his throne."...Don't tolerate sin under the pressure to be open-minded. Standing firm against Satan's attractive temptations is never easy, but the alternative is deadly."

The following verses are what Margo underlined in the passage in II Peter, the apostle Peter writing:

"20:Above all, you must understand that no prophecy of Scripture came about by the prophet's own interpretation. 21:For prophecy never had its origin in the will of man, but men spoke from God as they were carried along by the Holy Spirit."
