To the Angel of the Church in Sardis write:
These are the Words of Him
Who Holds the Seven Spirits of God
And the Seven Stars.
I Know your Deeds;
You have a Reputation of Being Alive,
BUT YOU ARE DEAD.
2 WAKE UP!
Strengthen what Remains and is About to Die,
FOR I HAVE FOUND YOUR DEEDS UNFINISHED
In the Sight of My God.
3 Remember, therefore,
What you have Received and Heard;
HOLD IT FAST, AND REPENT.
But if you Do Not Wake Up,
I WILL COME LIKE A THIEF,
And you will Not Know
At what Time I will Come to you.
4 Yet you have a Few People in Sardis
Who have not Soiled their Clothes.
They will Walk with Me,
DRESSED IN WHITE,
FOR THEY ARE WORTHY.
5 THE ONE WHO IS VICTORIOUS
Will like them,
BE DRESSED IN WHITE.
I will Never Blot Out the Name
Of that Person
FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE,
But will Acknowledge that Name
Before My Father and His Angels.
6 WHOEVER HAS EARS,
Let them Hear
What the Spirit Says to the Churches.
(Revelation 2: 1-6, NIV)
