But thou hast this — Divine grace seeks whatever may help him that is fallen to recover his standing. That thou hatest the works of the Nicolaitans — Probably so called from Nicolas, one of the seven deacons, Acts 6:5. Their doctrines and lives were equally corrupt. They allowed the most abominable lewdness and adulteries, as well as sacrificing to idols; all which they placed among things indifferent, and pleaded for as branches of Christian liberty.
