Revelation 2:1-7 - The Letter To The Church In Ephesus
1 To the angel of the church in Ephesus, write: These things says he that holds the seven stars in his right hand, that walks in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; 2 I know your works, and your labor, and your patience; and that you can not bear with those who are evil, and that you have tried those who say they are apostles, and are not, and have found them liars; 3 and that you have patience, and have endured for my name's sake, and have not fainted. 4 But I have this against you, that you have left your first love. 5 Remember, therefore, whence you have fallen, and repent, and do your first works; if not, I will come to you quickly, and I will remove your candlestick from its place, unless you repent. 6 But you have this, that you hate the works of the Nicolaitanes, which I also hate.
7 He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches: To him that overcomes, I will give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the paradise of God.
