Listen "Be Faithful unto Death"
Episode Synopsis
Revelation 2: 8 – 11
Sunday, November 1, 2020
About 100 years after the Scripture that we just read, a Bishop, Polycarp, served as pastor to the church in Smyrna. It’s interesting, because he was an early Father of the Church, as we know them, and other Church Fathers, Irenaeus and Tertullian, both wrote that Polycarp had been an actual disciple of John the Apostle, the human author, as we have seen, of the book of Revelation. Another ancient source goes so far as to say that it was John who appointed Polycarp to be the bishop of Smyrna.
