Revelation 2:1-5 ▼

1 To the angel of the church of Ephesus, write, "HE that holds the seven stars in his right hand, who walks in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks, says thus,

2 I know thy works, thy labour, and thy patience, and that thou canst not bear those who are evil: thou hast tried those who say they are apostles, but are not; and hast found them lyars:

3 thou hast suffer'd, hast patience, for my name's sake thou hast laboured, and hast not fainted.

4 nevertheless, I have somewhat against thee, because thou hast left thy first love.

5 remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place except thou repent.
