Revelation 3:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Revelation 3:1

The Dead Church

1 “And to the¹ angel of the church in Sardis write, ‘These things says He who ^ahas the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: “I know your works, that you have a name that you are alive, but you are dead.

2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die, for I have not found your works perfect before¹ God.

3 ^aRemember therefore how you have received and heard; hold fast and ^brepent. ^cTherefore if you will not watch, I will come upon you ^das a thief, and you will not know what hour I will come upon you.

4 You have ^aa few names even in Sardis who have not ^bdefiled their garments; and they shall walk with Me ^cin white, for they are worthy.

5 He who overcomes ^ashall be clothed in white garments, and I will not ^bblot out his name from the ^cBook of Life; but ^dI will confess his name before My Father and before His angels.
