BooK of Revelation
a paraphrased study
14 - “And to the angel (messenger) of the church in Laodicea write: ‘The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning [arché - beginning, origin, ruler, authority, principality] of God's creation.
15 ‘I know your works. You’re neither cold nor hot. I wish that you were either cold or hot. 16 So, because you’re lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I will” [melló - intend to, to be destined, am about to] “spit you out of my mouth. 17 For you say, ‘I’m rich, I’ve prospered, and I need nothing’. And you don’t realize you’re wretched, pitiful, poor, blind, and naked! 18 Acquire from me gold refined by fire, so you’ll be rich, and white garments so you may clothe yourself and the shame of your nakedness {imperfection} may not be seen, and salve to anoint your eyes, so you can see. 19 Those whom I love, I discipline and correct” [elégxō – properly, to convince with solid, compelling evidence, especially to prove wrong, correct] “so be zealous and repent. 20 Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to them and eat with them, and they with me. 21 The one who conquers, I will grant to sit with me on my throne {during 7th and 8th millennial days?} as I also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne. 22 Whosoever has an ear, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches.’”
