Rev 2:1  “To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: ‘The words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand, who walks among the seven golden lampstands


 


Rev 2:2  “‘I know your works, your toil and your patient endurance, and how you cannot bear with those who are evil, but have tested those who call themselves apostles and are not, and found them to be false.


Rev 2:3  I know you are enduring patiently and bearing up for my name's sake, and you have not grown weary. 


Rev 2:4  But I have this against you, that you have abandoned your first love


Rev 2:5  Remember therefore from where you have fallen; repent, and do the works you did at first. If not, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place, unless you repent. 


Rev 3:1  “And to the angel of the church in Sardis write: ‘The words of him who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars. “‘I know your works. You have the reputation of being alive, but you are dead


Rev 3:2  Wake up, and strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have not found your works complete in the sight of my God.

Mar 4:19  but the cares of the world and the deceitfulness of riches and the desires for other things enter in and choke the word, and it proves unfruitful


 


Rev 3:16  So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth


Rev 3:19  Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent
