‘Be awake! And strengthen the things which remain that are ready to die! For I have not found your work perfect before God.

‘Therefore, remember what you have received and heard. And hold fast and repent. If, therefore, you will not watch, I will come on you as a thief. And you shall not know what hour I will come upon you.

‘Notwithstanding, you still have a few names in Sardis who have not defiled their garments. And they shall walk with Me in white. For they are worthy.

‘He who overcomes shall be clothed in white array. And I will not blot his name out from the Book of Life. But I will confess his name before My Father, and before His angels.

‘Let him who has an ear, hear what the Spirit says to the Churches.’”
