To Philadelphia, Revelation 3: 7-13
This is 'His' letter,
to the Philadelphians,
and the angel there:
"The words of the one,
who is both holy and true.
I know all your works.
I hold David's key
and I have opened a door
which no one can shut
Your might may be small,
yet you haven't denied me.
You have kept my word.
I will bend their knees,
those who lie about their faith,
the church of Satan.
The wicked will learn
that it is you who I love
while down at your feet.
Patient endurance
this is my word you have kept
so you will be spared
You won't stand trial
unlike those who dwell on earth
when I come again.
I am coming soon.
Hold fast to the crown you have,
so no one may seize
The one who conquers,
will become like a pillar
within God's temple.
I will write three names
The name of God. My own name.
New Jerusalem.
He who has an ear
let him hear the Spirit speak
unto the churches.
