6 ^a“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’

The Faithful Church

7 “And to the¹ angel of the church in Philadelphia write, ‘These things says ^aHe who is holy, ^bHe who is true, ^c“He who has the key of David, ^dHe who opens and no one shuts, and ^eshuts and no one opens”:

8 ^a“I know your works. See, I have set before you ^ban open door, and no one can shut it; for you have a little strength, have kept My word, and have not denied My name.

9 Indeed I will make ^athose of the synagogue of Satan, who say they are Jews and are not, but lie—indeed ^bI will make them come and worship before your feet, and to know that I have loved you.

10 Because you have kept My command to persevere, ^aI also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon ^bthe whole world, to test those who dwell ^con the earth.

11 Behold, ^aI am coming quickly! ^bHold fast what you have, that no one may take ^cyour crown.

12 He who overcomes, I will make him ^aa pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall ^bgo out no more. ^cI will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the ^dNew Jerusalem, which ^ecomes down out of heaven from My God. ^fAnd I will write on him My new name.

13 ^a“He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” ’

15 ^a“I know your works, that you are neither cold nor hot. I could wish you were cold or hot.
