The Seven Churches in Asia (3): Smyrna: A Persecuted Yet Rich Church (Revelation 2:8-11) by Rev. Angus Stewart
I. Present Tribulation
II. Future Suffering
III. Precious Promises
Matthew Henry: "We find in the Acts that, wherever the gospel came, persecution was stirred up; it was everywhere spoken against, and there was no small stir about that way. Therefore, let not the disciples of Christ promise themselves peace upon earth, for they are sent forth as sheep in the midst of wolves."
