And tell Archippus, 'Attend to the ministry you have received in the Lord; see that you fulfil it.'

to our sister Apphia, to our fellow-soldier Archippus, and to the church that meets in your house:

Then to the angel of the church at Laodicea write thus: These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the origin of God's creation. I know your doings, you are neither cold nor hot ??would you were either cold or hot! read more. So, because you are lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, I am going to spit you out of my mouth. You declare, 'I am rich, I am well off, I lack nothing!' ??not knowing you are a miserable creature, pitiful, poor, blind, naked. I advise you to buy from me gold refined in the fire, that you may be rich, white raiment to clothe you and prevent the shame of your nakedness from being seen, and salve to rub on your eyes, that you may see. I reprove and discipline those whom I love; so be in warm earnest and repent.
