Revelation 3:14-20

14“To the angel of the church in 1Laodicea write:

2The Amen, 3the faithful and true Witness, 4the 5Beginning of the creation of God, says this:

15‘6I know your deeds, that you are neither cold nor hot; 7I wish that you were cold or hot. 16So because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will 8spit you out of My mouth. 17Because you say, “9I 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 10buy from Me 11gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, and 12white garments so that you may clothe yourself, and that 13the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve to anoint your eyes so that you may see. 19 14Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline; therefore be zealous and 15repent. 20Behold, I stand 16at the door and 17knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, 18I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.
