2:14. But I have against thee a few things: because thou hast there them
that hold the doctrine of Balaam who taught Balac to cast a
stumblingblock before the children of Israel, to eat and to commit
fornication.
2:15. So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaites.
2:16. In like manner do penance. If not, I will come to thee quickly and
will fight against them with the sword of my mouth.
2:17. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the
churches: To him that overcometh I will give the hidden manna and will
give him a white counter: and in the counter, a new name written, which
no man knoweth but he that receiveth it.
2:18. And to the angel of the church of Thyatira write: These things
saith the Son of God, who hath his eyes like to a flame of fire and his
feet like to fine brass.
2:19. I know thy works and thy faith and thy charity and thy ministry
and thy patience and thy last works, which are more than the former.
2:20. But I have against thee a few things: because thou sufferest the
woman Jezabel, who calleth herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce
my servants, to commit fornication and to eat of things sacrificed to
idols.
2:21. And I gave her a time that she might do penance: and she will not
repent of her fornication.
2:22. Behold, I will cast her into a bed: and they that commit adultery
with her shall be in very great tribulation, except they do penance from
their deeds,
2:23. And I will kill her children with death: and all the churches
shall know that I am he that searcheth the reins and hearts. And I will
give to every one of you according to your works. But to you I say,
2:24. And to the rest who are at Thyatira: Whosoever have not this
doctrine and who have not known the depths of Satan, as they say: I will
not put upon you any other burthen.
2:25. Yet that which you have, hold fast till I come.
2:26. And he that shall overcome and keep my words unto the end, I will
give him power over the nations.
Power over the nations... This shews, that the saints, who are with
Christ our Lord in heaven, receive power from him to preside over
nations and provinces, as patrons; and shall come with him at the end of
the world to execute his will against those who have not kept his
commandments.
2:27. And he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and as the vessel of a
potter they shall be broken:
2:28. As I also have received of my Father. And I will give him the
morning star.
2:29. He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the
churches.
Apocalypse Chapter 3
Directions what to write to Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea.
3:1. And to the angel of the church of Sardis write: These things saith
he that hath the seven spirits of God and the seven stars: I know thy
works, and that thou hast the name of being alive. And thou art dead.
3:2. Be watchful and strengthen the things that remain, which are ready
to die. For I find not thy works full before my God.
3:3. Have in mind therefore in what manner thou hast received and heard:
and observe and do penance: If then thou shalt not watch, I will come to
thee as a thief: and thou shalt not know at what hour I will come to
thee.
3:4. But thou hast a few names in Sardis which have not defiled their
garments: and they shall walk with me in white, because they are worthy.
