"And to the angel of the assembly in Sardis write these things," saith He Who hath the seven Spirits of God and the seven stars: "I know your works, that you have a name that you are living, and you are dead. Become watchful, and strengthen the things that remain, which were about to die; for I have not found your works complete before My God.

And already the axe also is lying at the root of the trees; every tree, therefore, not producing good fruit, is cut down, and cast into the fire."
Now these things were happening to them by way of example; and they were written for our admonition, unto whom the ends of the ages have come.

So, because you are lukewarm, and neither hot nor cold, I am about to spew you out of My mouth.
