¹Unto the angel of the church of Ephesus write; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who walketh in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;22 sermons²I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:24 sermons³And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name’s sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted.24 sermons⁴Nevertheless I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.26 sermons⁵Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.23 sermons⁶But this thou hast, that thou hatest the deeds of the Nicolaitans, which I also hate.21 sermons⁷He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God.24 sermons⁸And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive;19 sermons⁹I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but thou art rich) and I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan.19 sermons¹⁰Fear none of those things which thou shalt suffer: behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that ye may be tried; and ye shall have tribulation ten days: be thou faithful unto death, and I will give thee a crown of life.35 sermons¹¹He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; He that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death.19 sermons¹²And to the angel of the church in Pergamos write; These things saith he which hath the sharp sword with two edges;20 sermons¹³I know thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan’s seat is: and thou holdest 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 dwelleth.22 sermons¹⁴But I have a few things against thee, because thou hast there them that hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed unto idols, and to commit fornication.19 sermons¹⁵So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.18 sermons¹⁶Repent; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.18 sermons¹⁷He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh 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 knoweth saving he that receiveth it.20 sermons¹⁸And unto the angel of the church in Thyatira write; These things saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like unto a flame of fire, and his feet are like fine brass;21 sermons¹⁹I know thy works, and charity, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last to be more than the first.18 sermons²⁰Notwithstanding I have a few things against thee, because thou sufferest that woman Jezebel, which calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed unto idols.18 sermons²¹And I gave her space to repent of her fornication; and she repented not.18 sermons²²Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds.18 sermons²³And 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 every one of you according to your works.18 sermons²⁴But unto you I say, and unto 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.18 sermons²⁵But that which ye have already hold fast till I come.21 sermons²⁶And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:18 sermons²⁷And 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.19 sermons²⁸And I will give him the morning star.18 sermons²⁹He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.18 sermons
