But at least you have the credit of hating the works of the Nicolaitans, as I do.

And you have those who keep the teaching of the Nicolaitans.

But I have this against you, that you let the woman Jezebel say she is a prophet and give false teaching, making my servants go after the desires of the flesh and take food offered to false gods.
