The Message
Revelation 2:9-11
The Message
9 “I can see your pain and poverty—constant pain, dire poverty—but I also see your wealth. And I hear the lie in the claims of those who pretend to be good Jews, who in fact belong to Satan’s crowd.
10 “Fear nothing in the things you’re about to suffer—but stay on guard! Fear nothing! The Devil is about to throw you in jail for a time of testing—ten days. It won’t last forever.
“Don’t quit, even if it costs you your life. Stay there believing. I have a Life-Crown sized and ready for you.
11 “Are your ears awake? Listen. Listen to the Wind Words, the Spirit blowing through the churches. Christ-conquerors are safe from Devil-death.”

9 I know your afflictions and your poverty—yet you are rich!(A) I know about the slander of those who say they are Jews and are not,(B) but are a synagogue of Satan.(C) 10 Do not be afraid of what you are about to suffer. I tell you, the devil will put some of you in prison to test you,(D) and you will suffer persecution for ten days.(E) Be faithful,(F) even to the point of death, and I will give you life as your victor’s crown.(G)
11 Whoever has ears, let them hear(H) what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who is victorious will not be hurt at all by the second death.(I)
