|
|
The Loveless Church
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 2
|
|
###### 1 **"To the** **angel of the church of Ephesus write,**
|
|
**'These things says** **He who holds the seven stars in His right hand,** **who walks in the midst of the seven golden lampstands:**
|
|
###### 2 **"I know your works, your labor, your** **patience, and that you cannot** **bear those who are evil. And** **you have tested those** **who say they are apostles and are not, and have found them liars;**
|
|
###### 3 **and you have persevered and have patience, and have labored for My name's sake and have** **not become weary.**
|
|
###### 4 **Nevertheless I have _this_ against you, that you have left your first love.**
|
|
###### 5 **Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent and do the first works,** **or else I will come to you quickly and remove your lampstand from its place--unless you repent.**
|
|
###### 6 **But this you have, that you hate the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.**
|
|
|
|
###### 7 **"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give** **to eat from** **the tree of life, which is in the midst of the Paradise of God." '**The Persecuted Church
|
|
|
|
###### 8 **"And to the** **angel of the church in Smyrna write,**
|
|
**'These things says** **the First and the Last, who was dead, and came to life:**
|
|
###### 9 **"I know your works, tribulation, and poverty (but you are** **rich); and _I know_ the blasphemy of** **those who say they are Jews and are not,** **but _are_ a** **synagogue of Satan.**
|
|
###### 10 **Do not fear any of those things which you are about to suffer. Indeed, the devil is about to throw _some_ of you into prison, that you may be tested, and you will have tribulation ten days.** **Be faithful until death, and I will give you** **the crown of life.**
|
|
|
|
###### 11 **"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. He who overcomes shall not be hurt by** **the second death." '**The Compromising Church
|
|
|
|
###### 12 **"And to the** **angel of the church in Pergamos write,**
|
|
**'These things says** **He who has the sharp two-edged sword:**
|
|
###### 13 **"I know your works, and where you dwell, where Satan's throne _is._ And you hold fast to My name, and did not deny My faith even in the days in which Antipas _was_ My faithful martyr, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.**
|
|
###### 14 **But I have a few things against you, because you have there those who hold the doctrine of** **Balaam, who taught Balak to put a stumbling block before the children of Israel,** **to eat things sacrificed to idols,** **and to commit sexual immorality.**
|
|
###### 15 **Thus you also have those who 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 who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. To him who overcomes I will give some of the hidden** **manna to eat. And I will give him a white stone, and on the stone** **a new name written which no one knows except him who receives _it._" '**The Corrupt Church
|
|
|
|
###### 18 **"And to the** **angel of the church in Thyatira write,**
|
|
**'These things says the Son of God,** **who has eyes like a flame of fire, and His feet like fine brass:**
|
|
###### 19 **"I know your works, love,** **service, faith, and your** **patience; and _as_ for your works, the last _are_ more than the first.**
|
|
###### 20 **Nevertheless I have** **a few things against you, because you allow** **that woman** **Jezebel, who calls herself a prophetess,** **to teach and seduce My servants** **to commit sexual immorality and eat things sacrificed to idols.**
|
|
###### 21 **And I gave her time** **to** **repent of her sexual immorality, and she did not repent.**
|
|
###### 22 **Indeed I will cast her into a sickbed, and those who commit adultery with her into great tribulation, unless they repent of** **their deeds.**
|
|
###### 23 **I will kill her children with death, and all the churches shall know that I am He who** **searches** **the minds and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works.**
|
|
|
|
###### 24 **"Now to you I say,** **and to the rest in Thyatira, as many as do not have this doctrine, who have not known the** **depths of Satan, as they say,** **I** **will put on you no other burden.**
|
|
###### 25 **But hold fast** **what you have till I come.**
|
|
###### 26 **And he who overcomes, and keeps** **My works until the end,** **to him I will give power over the nations--**
|
|
|
|
###### 27 **'He** **shall rule them with a rod of iron;**
|
|
**They shall be dashed to pieces like the potter's vessels'--**
|
|
**as I also have received from My Father;**
|
|
###### 28 **and I will give him** **the morning star.**
|
|
|
|
###### 29 **"He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches." '**
