I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify these things to you for the churches. I am the Root and the Stock of David, the Bright and Morning Star."

"And to the angel of the church in Laodicea write, 'These things says the Amen, the faithful and true Witness, the beginning of the creation of God:

This I say, therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you should no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles walk, in the vanity of their mind,

that no one should transgress against and to defraud his brother in this matter, because the Lord is the avenger concerning all, just as we told you before and solemnly testified.

Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy, and who keep the things having been written in it; for the time is near.

You shall not add to the word which I command you, and you shall not take from it: keep the commandments of the Lord our God, all that I command you this day.

Every word that I command you this day, you shall observe to do: you shall not add to it, nor diminish from it.

Add not unto His words, lest He reprove you, and you be made a liar.

then by no means should he honor his father or mother.' Thus you have nullified the commandment of God on account of your tradition.

'These people draw near to Me with their mouth, and they honor Me with their lips, but their heart is far away from Me.

then he shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out undiluted in the cup of His wrath. And they shall be tormented with fire and brimstone before the holy angels and before the Lamb.

And the smoke of their torment goes up forever and ever; and they have no rest day or night, those who worship the Beast and his image, and anyone who receives the mark of his name."

Then I saw another sign in heaven, great and marvelous: seven angels having the seven last plagues, because in them the wrath of God has been completed.

Then I heard a loud voice from the temple saying to the seven angels, "Go and pour out the seven bowls of the wrath of God on the earth."

Then the Beast was apprehended, and with him the False Prophet who had performed the signs before him, by which he had deceived those who received the mark of the Beast and those who worshipped his image. These two were thrown alive into the lake of fire burning with brimstone.

And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of fire and brimstone where also the Beast and the False Prophet [are]. And they shall be tormented day and night forever and ever.

And if anyone was not found having been written in the Book of Life, he was cast into the Lake of Fire.

And if you still refuse to hearken to Me, then will I chasten you yet more, even seven times for your sins.

I also will walk with you with a perverse spirit, and I also will smite you seven times for your sins.

And I will bring upon you a sword avenging the cause of [My] covenant, and you shall flee for refuge to your cities; and I will send out death against you, and you shall be delivered into the hands of your enemies.

then will I walk contrary to you in fury, and I will chasten you seven-fold according to your sins.

And brother shall disregard brother as in war, when none pursues; and you shall not be able to withstand your enemies.
