Revelation Faith Sword 40

"Yet you remain true to my name. You did not renounce your faith in me, even in the days of Antipas, my faithful witness, who was put to death in your city -where Satan lives. Nevertheless, I have a few things against you: You have people there who hold to the teaching of Balaam, who taught Balak to entice the Israelites to sin by eating food sacrificed to idols and by committing sexual immorality. Likewise you also have those who hold to the teaching of the Nicolaitans. Repent therefore! Otherwise, I will soon come to you and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth." (Revelation 2:13-16)

Word to Pergamum serpent on a StickThe letter to "Pergamum" in the Book of Revelation praises the members of the church for persevering in their faith in Christ even in the midst of this pagan setting and in face of persecution and martyrdom. But it admonishes them about members who advocate an unprincipled morality and others who follow the teaching of the Nicolaitans. Only when they repent will they receive the hidden manna and Christ's amulet.

Roman Short SwordThe "sword of my mouth," is the Revelation faith sword. It is named after the sharp double edged sword, which was the symbol of the Roman proconsul's power. He controlled the justice system and literally had 'the accused' life and death in his hands.
