“I know you well; you aren’t strong, but you have tried to obey[a] and have not denied my Name. Therefore I have opened a door to you that no one can shut.

“Note this: I will force those supporting the causes of Satan while claiming to be mine[b] (but they aren’t—they are lying) to fall at your feet and acknowledge that you are the ones I love.

10 “Because you have patiently obeyed me despite the persecution, therefore I will protect you from the time of Great Tribulation and temptation,[c] which will come upon the world to test everyone alive.

Footnotes

  1. Revelation 3:8 you have tried to obey, literally, “you have kept my word.”
  2. Revelation 3:9 those supporting the causes of Satan while claiming to be mine, literally, “those who say they are Jews but are not.”
  3. Revelation 3:10 I will protect you from the time of Great Tribulation and temptation, or “I will keep you from failing in the hour of testing.” The inference is not clear in the Greek as to whether this means “kept from” or “kept through” the coming horror.
