The Message to the Church in Sardis

3"Write this letter to the angel of the church in Sardis. This is the message from the one who has the sevenfold Spirit of God and the seven stars: "I know all the things you do, and that you have a reputation for being alive—but you are dead.G2532G32G1577G1722G4554G1125G3592G3004G2192G2033G4151G2316G2532G2033G792G1492G4675G2041G3754G2192G3686G3754G2198G2532G1488G3498 2Wake up! Strengthen what little remains, for even what is left is almost dead. I find that your actions do not meet the requirements of my God.G1096G1127G2532G4741G3062G3739G3195G599G1063G2147G3756G2147G4675G2041G4137G1799G2316 3Go back to what you heard and believed at first; hold to it firmly. Repent and turn to me again. If you don't wake up, I will come to you suddenly, as unexpected as a thief.G3421G3767G4459G2983G2532G191G2532G5083G2532G3340G3362G3767G1127G3362G1127G2240G1909G4571G5613G2812G2532G1097G3364G1097G4169G5610G2240G1909G4571 4"Yet there are some in the church in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes with evil. They will walk with me in white, for they are worthy.G2192G3641G3686G2532G1722G4554G3739G3435G3756G3435G846G2440G2532G4043G3326G1700G1722G3022G3754G1526G514 5All who are victorious will be clothed in white. I will never erase their names from the Book of Life, but I will announce before my Father and his angels that they are mine.G3528G3778G4016G1722G3022G2440G2532G1813G3364G1813G846G3686G1537G976G2222G2532G1843G846G3686G1799G3450G3962G2532G1799G846G32 6"Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches.G2192G3775G191G5101G4151G3004G1577

The Message to the Church in Philadelphia

7"Write this letter to the angel of the church in Philadelphia. This is the message from the one who is holy and true, the one who has the key of David. What he opens, no one can close; and what he closes, no one can open.G2532G32G1577G1722G5359G1125G3592G3004G40G228G2192G2807G1138G455G2532G3762G2808G2532G2808G2532G3762G455 8"I know all the things you do, and I have opened a door for you that no one can close. You have little strength, yet you obeyed my word and did not deny me.G1492G4675G2041G2400G1325G1799G4675G455G2374G2532G3762G1410G2808G846G3754G2192G3398G1411G2532G5083G3450G3056G2532G720G3756G720G3450G3686 9Look, I will force those who belong to Satan's synagogue—those liars who say they are Jews but are not—to come and bow down at your feet. They will acknowledge that you are the ones I love.G2400G1325G1537G4864G4567G3588G3004G1438G1511G2453G2532G1526G3756G235G5574G2400G4160G846G2443G2240G2532G4352G1799G4675G4228G2532G1097G3754G1473G25G4571 10"Because you have obeyed my command to persevere, I will protect you from the great time of testing that will come upon the whole world to test those who belong to this world.G3754G5083G3056G3450G5281G2504G5083G4571G1537G5610G3986G3588G3195G2064G1909G3650G3625G3985G2730G1909G1093 11I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take away your crown.G2400G2064G5035G2902G3739G2192G2443G3367G2983G4675G4735 12All who are victorious will become pillars in the Temple of my God, and they will never have to leave it. And I will write on them the name of my God, and they will be citizens in the city of my God—the new Jerusalem that comes down from heaven from my God. And I will also write on them my new name.G846G3528G4160G4769G1722G3485G3450G2316G2532G1831G3364G2089G1854G2532G1125G1909G846G3686G3450G2316G2532G3686G4172G3450G2316G3588G2537G2419G3588G2597G2597G1537G3772G575G3450G2316G2532G3450G2537G3686 13"Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches.G2192G3775G191G5101G4151G3004G1577

The Message to the Church in Laodicea

14"Write this letter to the angel of the church in Laodicea. This is the message from the one who is the Amen—the faithful and true witness, the beginning of God's new creation.G2532G32G1577G2994G1125G3592G3004G281G4103G2532G228G3144G746G2937G2316 15"I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one or the other!G1492G4675G2041G3754G1488G3777G5593G3777G2200G3785G1498G5593G2228G2200 16But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth!G3779G3754G1488G5513G2532G3777G5593G3777G2200G3195G1692G4571G1537G3450G4750 17You say, 'I am rich. I have everything I want. I don't need a thing!' And you don't realize that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked.G3754G3004G3754G1510G4145G2532G4147G2532G2192G5532G3762G2532G1492G3756G3754G4771G1488G5005G2532G1652G2532G4434G2532G5185G2532G1131 18So I advise you to buy gold from me—gold that has been purified by fire. Then you will be rich. Also buy white garments from me so you will not be shamed by your nakedness, and ointment for your eyes so you will be able to see.G4823G4671G59G3844G1700G5553G4448G1537G4442G2443G4147G2532G3022G2440G2443G4016G2532G152G4675G1132G5319G3361G5319G2532G1472G4675G3788G2854G2443G991 19I correct and discipline everyone I love. So be diligent and turn from your indifference.G3745G1437G5368G1473G1651G2532G3811G2206G3767G2532G3340 20"Look! I stand at the door and knock. If you hear my voice and open the door, I will come in, and we will share a meal together as friends.G2400G2476G1909G2374G2532G2925G1437G5100G191G3450G5456G2532G455G2374G1525G4314G846G2532G1172G3326G846G2532G846G3326G1700 21Those who are victorious will sit with me on my throne, just as I was victorious and sat with my Father on his throne.G846G3528G1325G2523G3326G1700G1722G3450G2362G2504G5613G2504G3528G2532G2523G3326G3450G3962G1722G846G2362 22"Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what he is saying to the churches."G2192G3775G191G5101G4151G3004G1577
