- 14."And to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write,
'These things says the Amen, the Faithful and True Witness,the

- 15."I know your works, that you are neither cold not hot. I
could wish you were cold or hot.
- 16."So then, because you are luke warm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew you out of My mouth.
- 17."Because you say, 'I am rich, have become wealthy, and have need of nothing' - and do not know that you are wretched, miserable, poor, blind, and naked-
- 18."I counsel you to buy from Me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich; and white garments, that you may be clothed, that the shame of your nakedness may not be revealed; and anoint your eyes with eye salve, that you may see.
- 19."As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten. Therefore be
zealous and repent.
- 20."Behold, I stand at the door and knock.If anyone hears My
voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and dine with him, and he with Me.
- 21."To him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
- 22."He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches'"
