let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches. To him that
overcometh, to him will I give of the hidden manna, and I will give
him a white stone, and upon the stone a new name written, which no
one knoweth but he that receiveth it. And to the angel of the church
in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath His
eyes like a flame of fire, and his feet are like unto burnished
brass: I know thy works, and thy love and faith and ministry and
patience, and that thy last works are more than the first. But I
have this against thee, that thou sufferest thy wife Jezebel, which
calleth herself a prophetess; and she teacheth and seduceth My
servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to
idols. And I gave her time that she should repent; and she willeth
not to repent of her fornication. Behold, I do cast her into a bed,
and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation,
except they repent of her works. And I will kill her children with
death; and all the churches shall know that I am He which searcheth
the reins and hearts: and I will give unto each one of you according
to your works. But to you I say, to the rest that are in Thyatira,
as many as have not this teaching, which know not the deep things of
Satan, as they say; I cast upon you none other burden. Howbeit that

that keepeth My works unto the end, to him will I give authority
over the nations: and as a shepherd he shall tend them with a
sceptre of iron, as the vessels of the potter are they broken to
shivers; as I also have received of My Father: and I will give him
the morning star. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit
saith to the churches. And to 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 thou art dead. Be thou watchful, and stablish the things
that remain, which were ready to die: for I have found no works of
thine fulfilled before My God. Remember therefore how thou hast
received and didst hear; and keep it, and repent. If therefore thou
shalt not watch, I will come as a thief, and thou shalt not know
what hour I will come upon thee. But thou hast a few names in Sardis
which did not defile their garments: and they shall walk with Me in
white; for they are worthy. He that overcometh shall thus be arrayed
in white garments; and I will in no wise blot his name out of the
book of life, and I will confess his name before My Father, and
before His angels. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the
Spirit saith to the churches. And to the angel of the church in
Philadelphia write; These things saith He that is holy, He that is
