1 Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things said he that holds the seven stars in his right hand, who walks in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; 2 I know your works, and your labour, and your patience, and how you canst not bear them which are evil: and you hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: 3 And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted. 4 Nevertheless I have [(somewhat)] against you, because you hast left your first love. 5 Remember therefore from whence you art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come to you quickly, and will remove your candlestick out of his place, except you repent. 6 But this you hast, that you hates the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate. 7 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit said to the churches; To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. 8 And to the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things said the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive; 9 I know your works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but you art rich) and [(I know)] the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but [(are)] the synagogue of Satan. 10 Fear none of those things which you shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast [(some)] of you into prison, that you may be tried; and you shall have tribulation ten days: be you faithful to death, and I will give you a crown of life. 11 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit said to the churches; He that overcomes shall not be hurt of the second death. 12 And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things said he which hath the sharp sword with two edges; 13 I know your works, and where you dwells, [(even)] where Satan's seat [(is)]: and you holds fast my name, and hast not denied my faith, even in those days wherein Antipas [(was)] my faithful martyr, who was slain among you, where Satan dwells. 14 But I have a few things against you, because you hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balak to cast a stumbling-block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols, and to commit fornication. 15 So hast you also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. 16 Repent; or else I will come to you quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth. 17 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit said to the churches; To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knows saving he that receives [(it. 18 And to the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things said the Son of God, who hath his eyes like to a flame of fire, and his feet [(are)] like fine brass; 19 I know your works, and charity, and service, and faith, and your patience, and your works; and the last [(to be)] more than the first. 20 Notwithstanding I have a few things against you, because you sufferers that woman Jezebel, which calls herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to idols. 21 And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not. 22 Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. 23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searches the reins and hearts: and I will give to every one of you according to your works. 24 But to you I say, and to the rest in Thyatira, as many as have not this doctrine, and which have not known the depths of Satan, as they speak; I will put upon you none other burden. 25 But that which you have [(already)] hold fast till I come. 26 And he that overcomes, and keeps my works to the end, to him will I give power over the nations: 27 And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father. 28 And I will give him the morning star. 29 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit said to the churches. —- Chapters: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 </box| Christopedia copyright © 2019.
