Revelation 3:7-13
7“And to the angel of the church in 1Philadelphia write:
2He who is holy, 3who is true, who has 4the key of David, who opens and no one will shut, and who shuts and no one opens, says this:
8‘5I know your 6deeds. Behold, I have put before you 7an open door which no one can shut, because you have a little power, and have followed My word, and 8have not denied My name. 9Behold, I 9will make those of 10the synagogue of Satan, who say that they are Jews and are not, but lie--I will make them 11come and bow down before your feet, and make them know that 12I have loved you. 10Because you have 13kept 14My 15word of perseverance, 16I also will keep you from the hour of the 1718testing, that hour which is about to come upon the whole 1920world, to 21test 22those who live on the earth. 1123I am coming quickly; 24hold firmly to what you have, so that no one will take your 25crown. 1226The one who overcomes, I will make him a 27pillar in the temple of My God, and he will not go out from it anymore; and I will write on him the 28name of My God, and 29the name of the city of My God, 30the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God, and My 31new name. 1332The one who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’
