“To
the angel of the church in Sardis write :
These are
the
words
of
the
One
who
holds
the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars .
I know your
deeds;
you
have
a reputation
for
being
alive
, yet
you
are
dead.
And
unto
the angel of the church in Sardis write ;
These things
saith
he
that
hath
the seven Spirits of God ,
and the seven stars ;
I know thy
works,
that
thou
hast
a name
that
thou
livest
, and
art
dead.
Wake
up
and strengthen what
remains,
which was
about
to die ;
for I have found your
deeds
incomplete
in
the
sight
of
My
God.
Be
watchful,
and strengthen the
things
which remain,
that
are
ready
to die :
for I have not
found thy
works
perfect
before
God.
Remember ,
then,
what
you
have
received and heard .
Keep
it
and repent. If you
do
not wake
up
, I will come like
a thief, and you
will
not know the
hour when
I will come upon you
.
Remember therefore
how
thou
hast
received and heard ,
and hold
fast,
and
repent. If therefore
thou
shalt
not watch
, I will come on
thee
as
a thief, and thou
shalt
not know what
hour I will come upon thee
.
But
you
do
have
a few people
in Sardis who
have not soiled
their garments ,
and because
they are
worthy,
they
will
walk with Me in white.
Thou
hast
a few names
even
in Sardis which
have not defiled
their garments ;
and they shall
walk with me in white :
for
they
are
worthy
.
Like
them,
he who
overcomes
will
be dressed
in white .
And I will never
blot out his name from
the Book of Life, but I will confess his name before My Father and His angels.
He that
overcometh,
the
same
shall
be clothed
in white raiment;
and I will not
blot out his name out
of
the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father ,
and before
his angels.
He who
has
an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says
to
the churches.
He that
hath
an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith
unto
the churches.
To the angel of the church in Philadelphia write :
These are
the
words
of
the
One
who
is holy and
true, who
holds
the key of David .
What
He opens
no one
can
shut
, and what
He
shuts
no one
can
open.
And
to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write ;
These things
saith
he
that
is holy ,
he
that
is
true, he
that
hath
the key of David ,
he that
openeth,
and
no man
shutteth;
and
shutteth
, and no man
openeth;
I know your
deeds.
See
, I have placed
before you
an open door, which
no one
can shut .
For you
have
only
a little strength, yet
you
have
kept My word and have
not denied My name.
I know thy
works:
behold
, I have set
before thee
an open door, and
no man
can shut it:
for thou
hast
a little strength, and
hast
kept my word ,
and hast
not denied my name.
Look
at
those
who
belong
to
the synagogue of Satan, who
claim
to
be
Jews but
are liars
instead.
I will make them come and bow
down
at
your
feet, and they
will
know that I love
you
.
Behold,
I
will
make
them
of
the synagogue of Satan, which
say
they
are
Jews ,
and
are not,
but
do
lie;
behold,
I will make them to
come and worship
before
thy
feet, and to
know that I have
loved
thee
.
Because you
have
kept My command
to
persevere
, I will
also keep you
from the hour of testing
that
is
about
to
come upon the whole
world, to test
those
who
dwell on
the earth.
Because thou
hast
kept the
word
of
my patience
, I also will
keep thee
from the hour of temptation,
which
shall
come upon all
the world, to try
them
that
dwell upon
the earth.
I am
coming
soon.
Hold fast to
what
you
have
, so
that no one
will
take your
crown.
Behold,
I come
quickly:
hold that
fast which
thou
hast
, that no man
take thy
crown.
The
one
who
overcomes
I
will make a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will
never
again
leave
it.
Upon
him
I will write the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God (the
new Jerusalem that
comes
down out of heaven from My God ),
and My new name.
Him
that
overcometh
will I
make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall
go
no
more
out:
and
I will write upon
him
the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God ,
which
is
new Jerusalem ,
which
cometh
down out of heaven from my God :
and I
will
write
upon
him
my new name.

To
the angel of the church in
Laodicea
write :
These are
the
words
of
the Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the Originator
of God’s
creation .
And
unto
the angel of the church of
the
Laodiceans
write ;
These things
saith
the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning
of the
creation of
God;
I know your
deeds;
you
are
neither cold nor hot .
How
I wish
you
were
one
or the
other!
I know thy
works,
that
thou
art
neither cold nor hot :
I would
thou
wert
cold
or hot.
So because you
are
lukewarm —
neither hot
nor
cold —
I am
about
to
vomit
you
out of My mouth !
So then
because thou
art
lukewarm ,
and
neither cold nor
hot,
I will
spue
thee
out of my mouth .
You
say
, ‘
I am rich ;
I
have
grown
wealthy
and need nothing .’
But
you
do
not realize
that you
are
wretched, pitiful
, poor, blind, and naked .
Because
thou
sayest
, I am rich ,
and increased
with
goods,
and
have
need of
nothing ;
and
knowest
not that thou
art
wretched, and
miserable
, and
poor, and
blind, and naked :
I counsel you
to buy from
Me gold refined
by
fire so
that you
may
become
rich ,
white garments
so
that you
may
be clothed and your
shameful
nakedness not exposed,
and salve
to
anoint your
eyes so
that you
may
see.
I counsel thee
to buy of
me gold tried
in
the
fire ,
that thou
mayest
be
rich ;
and
white raiment,
that thou
mayest
be clothed ,
and that
the
shame
of
thy
nakedness do
not appear;
and anoint thine
eyes with
eyesalve,
that thou
mayest
see.
Those
I love, I rebuke and discipline.
Therefore
be earnest
and repent.
As
many
as
I love, I rebuke and chasten:
be zealous
therefore,
and repent.

If anyone
hears
My voice and opens
the door, I will come in and dine
with him, and he with Me.
Behold, I stand at the door ,
and knock :
if any
man
hear
my voice ,
and open
the door, I will come in to
him,
and will
sup
with him, and he with me.
To the
one
who
overcomes,
I
will grant the
right
to sit with Me on
My throne, just
as I overcame and sat
down with My Father on
His throne.

that
overcometh
will I
grant to sit with me in
my throne, even
as I also
overcame ,
and am
set
down with my Father in
his throne.

has
an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says

the churches. ”
He that
hath
an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith
unto
the churches.
