15. I know your works. You have the reputation of being alive, but you are dead. Revelation 3:1 (ESV)
16. 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. Revelation 3:2 (ESV)
17. Remember, then, what you received and heard. Keep it, and repent. If you will not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what hour I will come against you. Yet you have still a few names in Sardis, people who have not soiled their garments, and they will walk with me in white, for they are worthy. Revelation 3:4 (ESV)
18. So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall! 1 Corinthians 10:12 (NIV)
19. The one who conquers will be clothed thus in white garments, and I will never blot his name out of the book of life. I will confess his name before my Father and before his angels. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches. Revelation 3:5-6 (ESV)
