Revelation 3:7

Write this letter to the angel of the

church in Philadelphia.
This is the message from the one who is
holy and true, the one who has the key
of David. What he opens, no one can
close; what he closes, no one can open:
 Revelation 3:8

I know all the things you do, and I

have opened a door for you that
no one can close. You have little
strength, yet you obeyed my word
and did not deny me.
 Revelation 3:9

look, I will force those who belong to

Satan’s synagogue – those liars who
say they are Jews but are not – to
come and bow down at your feet.
They will acknowledge that you are
the ones that I love.
 Revelation 3:10

Because you have obeyed my

command to persevere, I will protect
you from the great time of testing
that will come upon the whole world
to test those who belong to this
world.
 Revelation 3:11

I am coming soon. Hold on to

what you have, so that no one will
take away your crown.
 Revelation 3:12

All who are victorious will become pillars in

the Temple of my God, and they will never
have to leave it. And I will write on them the
name of my God, and they will be citizens in
the city of my God – the new Jerusalem that
comes down from heaven from my God. And
I will also write on them my new name.
 Revelation 3:13

Anyone with ears to hear must

listen to the Spirit and understand
what he is saying to the churches.
