Revelation 3:14-20

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

2The Amen, 3the faithful and true Witness, 4the 5Origin 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 vomit you out of My mouth. 17Because you say, “8I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have no need of anything,” and you do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked, 18I advise you to 9buy from Me 10gold refined by fire so that you may become rich, and 11white garments so that you may clothe yourself and 12the shame of your nakedness will not be revealed; and eye salve to apply to your eyes so that you may see. 19 13Those whom I love, I rebuke and discipline; therefore be zealous and 14repent. 20Behold, I stand 15at the door and 16knock; if anyone hears My voice and opens the door, 17I will come in to him and will dine with him, and he with Me.
