1 [“] To the angel (messenger) of the church {ekklēsias} in Sardis write: These are the words of the One who holds the seven spirits (the sevenfold Spirit) of God {Theou} and the seven stars. I know your deeds (acts); you have a reputation for being alive, yet you are dead. 2 Wake up and strengthen what remains, which is about to die; for I have found your deeds (acts) incomplete in the sight of My God {Theou}. 3 Remember, then, what you have received and heard. Keep it and repent. If you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know the hour when I will come upon you. 4 But you do have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their garments, and because they are worthy, they will walk with Me in white. 5 Like them, he who overcomes will be dressed in white. And I will never blot out (scrape off) his name from the Book (papyrus roll) of Life, but I will confess his name before My Father and His angels (messengers).
