the revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave him to show unto his servant even the things which must shortly come to pass and he sent and signified it by his Angel unto his servant John who bear witness of the word of God and of the testimony of Jesus Christ even of all things that he saw blessed is he that readeth and they that hear the words of the prophecy and keep the things that are written therein for the time is at hand John to the seven churches that are in Asia grace to you and peace
from him who is and who was and who is to come and from the seven spirits that are before his throne and from Jesus Christ who is the faithful witness the firstborn of the dead and the ruler of the kings of the Earth on to him that loveth us and loosed us from our sins by his blood and he made us to be a kingdom to be priests unto his God and Father to him be the glory and the Dominion forever and ever amen behold he cometh with the clouds and every eye shall see him
and they that pierced him and all the tribes of the Earth shall mourn over him even so amen I am the alpha and the Omega saith the Lord God who is and who was and who is to come the Almighty I John your brother and partaker with you in the tribulation and Kingdom and patience which are in Jesus was in the aisle that is called Patmos for the word of God and the testimony of Jesus I was in the spirit on the Lord's day and I heard behind me a great voice as of a trumpet
saying what thou seest write a book and send it to the seven churches unto Ephesus and unto smna and unto pergamum and unto thota and unto Sardis and unto Philadelphia and unto leysia and I turned to see the voice that spake with me and having turned I saw seven golden candlesticks and in the midst of the candles sticks one like unto a son of man clothed with a garment down to the foot and gir about at the breasts with a golden girdle and his head and his hair were white as white wool white as snow
and his eyes were as a flame of fire and his feet like unburnished brass as if it had been refined in a furnace and his voice as the voice of many Waters and he had in his right hand Seven Stars and out of his mouth proceeded a sharp two-edged sword and his countenance was as the sun shineth in his strength and when I saw him I fell at his feet as one dead and he laid his right hand upon me saying fear not I am the first and the last and the living one and I
was dead and behold I am alive forever more and I have the keys of death and of Hades write therefore the things which thou sawest and the things which are and the things which shall come to pass Hereafter The Mystery of the Seven Stars which thou sawest in my right hand and the Seven golden candlesticks the Seven Stars are the Angels of the seven churches and the Seven candlesticks are seven churches to the angel of the church in Ephesus write these things saith he that holdeth the Seven Stars in his right hand he that walketh
in the midst of the seven golden C candlesticks I Know Thy works and thy toil and patience and that thou can not bear evil men and did try them that call themselves Apostles and they are not and did find them false and thou Hast patience and did bear for my name's sake and Hast not grown weary but I have this against thee that thou did leave thy First Love remember therefore whence Thou Art fallen and repent and do the first works or else I come to thee and will move thy Candlestick out of its place
except thou repent but this thou Hast that thou hatest The Works of the nicians which I also hate he that hath an ear let him hear what the spirit saith to the churches to him that overcometh to him will I give to eat of the tree of life which is in the paradise of God and to the angel of the church in Smyrna write these things sayth the first and the last who was dead and lived again I Know Thy tribulation and thy poverty but Thou Art rich and the blasphemy of them that say they
are Jews and they are not but are a synagogue of Satan fear not the things which Thou Art about to suffer behold the is about to cast some of you into prison that ye may be tried and ye shall have tribulation 10 days be thou faithful unto death and I will give Thee the Crown of Life he that hath an ear let him hear what the spirit saith to the churches he that overcometh shall not be hurt of the second death and to the angel of the church in pergamum write these things saith he that
hath the sharp two-edged sword I know where thou dwellest even where Satan's Throne is and thou holdest fast my name and did not deny my faith even in the days of Antipas my witness my faithful one who was killed among you where Satan dwelleth but I have a few things against thee because thou Hast there some that hold the teaching of BM who taught balac to cast a stumbling block before the children of Israel to eat things sacrificed to idols and to commit fornication so hast thou also some that hold the teaching of the nikans
in like manner repent therefore or else I come to thee quickly and I will make war against them with the sword of my mouth he that hath an ear let him hear what the spirit saith to to the churches to him that overcometh to him will I give of the Hidden mana and I will give him a white stone and upon the stone a new name written which no one knoweth but he that receiveth it and to the angel of the church in thota write these things saith the Son of God who hath his eyes
like a flame of fire and his feet are like unto burnished brass I Know Thy Word works and thy love and faith and Ministry and patience and that thy last works are more than the first but I have this against thee that thou sufferest the woman Jezebel who calleth herself a prophetes and she teacheth and seduth my servants to commit fornication and to eat things sacrificed to idols and I gave her time that she should repent and she willth not to repent of her fornication behold I cast her into a bed and them that commit
adultery with her into Great Tribulation except they repent of her works and I will kill her children with death and all the churches shall know that I am he that searcheth the Reigns and hearts and I will give unto each one of you according to your works but to you I say to the rest that are in thoa as many as have not this teaching who know not the Deep things of Satan as they are want to say I cast upon you none other burden nevertheless that which ye have hold fast till I come and
he that overcometh and he that keepeth my Works unto the end to him will I give authority over the Nations and he shall rule them with a rod of iron as the vessels of the Potter are broken to Shivers as I also have received of my father and I will give him the Morning Star he that hath an ear let him hear what the spirit saith to the churches and to the angel of the church in Sardis right these things saith he that hath the seven spirits of God and the Seven Stars I Know Thy
works that thou Hast a name that thou livest and thou art dead be thou WI watchful and establish the things that remain which were ready to die for I have found no works of thine perfected before my God remember therefore how thou Hast received and D hear and keep it and repent if therefore Thou shalt not watch I will come as a thief and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee but thou Hast a few names in Sardis that did not defile their garments and they shall walk with me in white
for they are worthy he that overcometh shall thus be arrayed in white garments and I will in no wise blot his name out of the book of life and I will confess his name before my father and before his angels he that hath an ear let him hear what the spirit saith to the churches
