1 To the Church in Ephesus“To the angel of the church in Ephesus, write the following:“This is the solemn pronouncement of the one who has a firm grasp on the seven stars in his right hand– the one who walks among the seven golden lampstands:
2 ‘I know your works as well as your labor and steadfast endurance, and that you cannot tolerate evil. You have even put to the test those who refer to themselves as apostles(but are not), and have discovered that they are false.
3 I am also aware that you have persisted steadfastly, endured much for the sake of my name, and have not grown weary.
4 But I have this against you: You have departed from your first love!
5 Therefore, remember from what high state you have fallen and repent! Do the deeds you did at the first; if not, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place– that is, if you do not repent.
6 But you do have this going for you: You hate what the Nicolaitans practice– practices I also hate.
1 To the Church in Sardis“To the angel of the church in Sardis write the following:“This is the solemn pronouncement of the one who holds the seven spirits of God and the seven stars:‘I know your deeds, that you have a reputation that you are alive, but in reality you are dead.
2 Wake up then, and strengthen what remains that was about to die, because I have not found your deeds complete in the sight of my God.
3 Therefore, remember what you received and heard, and obey it, and repent. If you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will never know at what hour I will come against you.
18 To the Church in Thyatira“To the angel of the church in Thyatira write the following:“This is the solemn pronouncement of the Son of God, the one who has eyes like a fiery flame and whose feet are like polished bronze:
20 But I have this against you: You tolerate that woman Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess, and by her teaching deceives my servants to commit sexual immorality and to eat food sacrificed to idols.
21 I have given her time to repent, but she is not willing to repent of her sexual immorality.
22 Look! I am throwing her onto a bed of violent illness, and those who commit adultery with her into terrible suffering, unless they repent of her deeds.
23 Furthermore, I will strike her followers with a deadly disease, and then all the churches will know that I am the one who searches minds and hearts. I will repay each one of you what your deeds deserve.
24 But to the rest of you in Thyatira, all who do not hold to this teaching(who have not learned the so-called“deep secrets of Satan”), to you I say: I do not put any additional burden on you.
25 However, hold on to what you have until I come.
26 And to the one who conquers and who continues in my deeds until the end, I will give him authority over the nations–
8 To the Church in Smyrna“To the angel of the church in Smyrna write the following:“This is the solemn pronouncement of the one who is the first and the last, the one who was dead, but came to life:
9 ‘I know the distress you are suffering and your poverty(but you are rich). I also know the slander against you by those who call themselves Jews and really are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.
10 Do not be afraid of the things you are about to suffer. The devil is about to have some of you thrown into prison so you may be tested, and you will experience suffering for ten days. Remain faithful even to the point of death, and I will give you the crown that is life itself.
11 The one who has an ear had better hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who conquers will in no way be harmed by the second death.’
12 To the Church in Pergamum“To the angel of the church in Pergamum write the following:“This is the solemn pronouncement of the one who has the sharp double-edged sword:
13 ‘I know where you live– where Satan’s throne is. Yet you continue to cling to my name and you have not denied your faith in me, even in the days of Antipas, my faithful witness, who was killed in your city where Satan lives.
14 But I have a few things against you: You have some people there who follow the teaching of Balaam, who instructed Balak to put a stumbling block before the people of Israel so they would eat food sacrificed to idols and commit sexual immorality.
14 To the Church in Laodicea“To the angel of the church in Laodicea write the following:“This is the solemn pronouncement of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the originator of God’s creation:
15 ‘I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot. I wish you were either cold or hot!
16 So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am going to vomit you out of my mouth!
17 Because you say,“I am rich and have acquired great wealth, and need nothing,” but do not realize that you are wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked,
18 take my advice and buy gold from me refined by fire so you can become rich! Buy from me white clothing so you can be clothed and your shameful nakedness will not be exposed, and buy eye salve to put on your eyes so you can see!
19 All those I love, I rebuke and discipline. So be earnest and repent!
8 ‘I know your deeds.(Look! I have put in front of you an open door that no one can shut.) I know that you have little strength, but you have obeyed my word and have not denied my name.
9 Listen! I am going to make those people from the synagogue of Satan– who say they are Jews yet are not, but are lying– Look, I will make them come and bow down at your feet and acknowledge that I have loved you.
10 Because you have kept my admonition to endure steadfastly, I will also keep you from the hour of testing that is about to come on the whole world to test those who live on the earth.
10 Continue in What You Have Learned You, however, have followed my teaching, my way of life, my purpose, my faith, my patience, my love, my endurance,
3 because you know that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
4 As a result we ourselves boast about you in the churches of God for your perseverance and faith in all the persecutions and afflictions you are enduring.
9 For this reason also I wrote you: to test you to see if you are obedient in everything.
19 Therefore write what you saw, what is, and what will be after these things.
3 because we recall in the presence of our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and endurance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.
11 saying:“Write in a book what you see and send it to the seven churches– to Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamum, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia, and Laodicea.”
5 The Charge to Gaius Dear friend, you demonstrate faithfulness by whatever you do for the brothers(even though they are strangers).
29 The one who has an ear had better hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’
21 Since I was confident that you would obey, I wrote to you, because I knew that you would do even more than what I am asking you to do.
5 because I hear of your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints.
10 For God is not unjust so as to forget your work and the love you have demonstrated for his name, in having served and continuing to serve the saints.
12 This requires the steadfast endurance of the saints– those who obey God’s commandments and hold to their faith in Jesus.
5 So when I could bear it no longer, I sent to find out about your faith, for fear that the tempter somehow tempted you and our toil had proven useless.
5 For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith excellence, to excellence, knowledge;
6 to knowledge, self-control; to self-control, perseverance; to perseverance, godliness;
8 Watch out, so that you do not lose the things we have worked for, but receive a full reward.
