Revelation 3

1 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

2 Be watchful and strengthen the things which remain that are ready to die for I have not found thy works perfect before God

3 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

4 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

5 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

6 He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches

7 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

8 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

9 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

10 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

11 Behold I come quickly hold that fast which thou hast that no man take thy crown

12 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 isnew Jerusalem which cometh down out of heaven from my God and I will write upon himmy new name

13 He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches

14 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

15 I know thy works that thou art neither cold nor hot I would thou wert cold or hot

16 So then because thou art lukewarm and neither cold nor hot I will spue thee out of my mouth

17 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

18 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 thatthe shame of thy nakedness do not appear and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve that thou mayest see

19 As many as I love I rebuke and chasten be zealous therefore and repent

20 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

21 To him 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

22 He that hath an ear let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches
