Revelation 3:13-22
131He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’
14“To the angel of the church in 2Laodicea write:
3The Amen, 4the faithful and true Witness, 5the 6Beginning of the creation of God, says this:
15‘7I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; 8I wish that you were cold or hot. 16So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will 9spit you out of My mouth. 17Because you say, “10I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have need of nothing,” and you do not know that you are wretched and miserable and poor and blind and naked, 18I advise you to 11buy from Me 12gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, and 13white garments so that you may clothe yourself, and that 14the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see. 1915Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and 16repent. 20Behold, I stand 17at the door and 18knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, 19I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me. 2120He who overcomes, I will grant to him 21to sit down with Me on My throne, as 22I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne. 2223He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’”
