Revelation 3:11

But as it is written, “Things which an eye didn’t see, and an ear didn’t hear, which didn’t enter into the heart of man, these God has prepared for those who love him.”

Count it all joy, my brothers, when you fall into various temptations,

Only be careful, and keep your soul diligently, lest you forget the things which your eyes saw, and lest they depart from your heart all the days of your life; but make them known to your children and your children’s children—

Not only this, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces perseverance;

But may the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a little while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.

For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will render to everyone according to his deeds.

Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven.

You will be hated by all men for my name’s sake, but he who endures to the end will be saved.

We know that all things work together for good for those who love God, for those who are called according to his purpose.

Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn’t God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?

But he knows the way that I take. When he has tried me, I will come out like gold.

Behold, Yahweh has proclaimed to the end of the earth, “Say to the daughter of Zion, ‘Behold, your salvation comes! Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him!’ ”

Then they will deliver you up to oppression, and will kill you. You will be hated by all of the nations for my name’s sake.

You were running well! Who interfered with you that you should not obey the truth?

Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the perseverance of Job, and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.

Remember therefore from where you have fallen, and repent and do the first works; or else I am coming to you swiftly, and will move your lamp stand out of its place, unless you repent.

Behold, the Lord Yahweh will come as a mighty one, and his arm will rule for him. Behold, his reward is with him, and his recompense before him.

I therefore run like that, not aimlessly. I fight like that, not beating the air,

No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.

What agreement does a temple of God have with idols? For you are a temple of the living God. Even as God said, “I will dwell in them and walk in them. I will be their God and they will be my people.”

Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season, if we don’t give up.

Therefore let’s also, seeing we are surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses, lay aside every weight and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let’s run with perseverance the race that is set before us,

The twenty-four elders, who sit on their thrones before God’s throne, fell on their faces and worshiped God,

The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it didn’t fall, for it was founded on the rock.

Jesus said to them, “Most certainly I tell you that you who have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of Man will sit on the throne of his glory, you also will sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Even so you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

“His lord said to him, ‘Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.’

But thanks be to God, that, whereas you were bondservants of sin, you became obedient from the heart to that form of teaching to which you were delivered.

For our light affliction, which is for the moment, works for us more and more exceedingly an eternal weight of glory,

I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.

However God’s firm foundation stands, having this seal, “The Lord knows those who are his,” and, “Let every one who names the name of the Lord depart from unrighteousness.”

But you remain in the things which you have learned and have been assured of, knowing from whom you have learned them.

has at the end of these days spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, through whom also he made the worlds.

We desire that each one of you may show the same diligence to the fullness of hope even to the end,

Don’t speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks against a brother and judges his brother, speaks against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law, but a judge.

But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will be dissolved with fervent heat, and the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

Nevertheless, hold that which you have firmly until I come.

The four living creatures said, “Amen!” Then the elders fell down and worshiped.

you shall not listen to the words of that prophet, or to that dreamer of dreams; for Yahweh your God is testing you, to know whether you love Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul.

I will tell of the decree: Yahweh said to me, “You are my son. Today I have become your father.

“Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name.

I will bring the third part into the fire, and will refine them as silver is refined, and will test them like gold is tested. They will call on my name, and I will hear them. I will say, ‘It is my people;’ and they will say, ‘Yahweh is my God.’ ”

But of that day or that hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

But he said, “On the contrary, blessed are those who hear the word of God, and keep it.”

See then the goodness and severity of God. Toward those who fell, severity; but toward you, goodness, if you continue in his goodness; otherwise you also will be cut off.

Do this, knowing the time, that it is already time for you to awaken out of sleep, for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first believed.

Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord comes, who will both bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and reveal the counsels of the hearts. Then each man will get his praise from God.

Don’t you know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run like that, that you may win.

but I beat my body and bring it into submission, lest by any means, after I have preached to others, I myself should be rejected.

I went up by revelation, and I laid before them the Good News which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately before those who were respected, for fear that I might be running, or had run, in vain.

holding up the word of life, that I may have something to boast in the day of Christ, that I didn’t run in vain nor labor in vain.

For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord comes like a thief in the night.

Fight the good fight of faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called, and you confessed the good confession in the sight of many witnesses.

The things which you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit the same things to faithful men, who will be able to teach others also.

You therefore must endure hardship as a good soldier of Christ Jesus.

Therefore don’t throw away your boldness, which has a great reward.

Blessed is a person who endures temptation, for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to those who love him.

But even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you are blessed. “Don’t fear what they fear, neither be troubled.”

Watch yourselves, that we don’t lose the things which we have accomplished, but that we receive a full reward.

Don’t be afraid of the things which you are about to suffer. Behold, the devil is about to throw some of you into prison, that you may be tested; and you will have oppression for ten days. Be faithful to death, and I will give you the crown of life.

Now when he had taken the book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each one having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints.

The twenty-four elders and the four living creatures fell down and worshiped God who sits on the throne, saying, “Amen! Hallelujah!”

He said to me, “Don’t seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand.

He who testifies these things says, “Yes, I come quickly.” Amen! Yes, come, Lord Jesus.

From now on, the crown of righteousness is stored up for me, which the Lord, the righteous judge, will give to me on that day; and not to me only, but also to all those who have loved his appearing.

Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words of the prophecy, and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is at hand.

Remember therefore how you have received and heard. Keep it and repent. If therefore you won’t watch, I will come as a thief, and you won’t know what hour I will come upon you.

“Behold, I come quickly. Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.”

“Behold, I come quickly. My reward is with me, to repay to each man according to his work.

Every man who strives in the games exercises self-control in all things. Now they do it to receive a corruptible crown, but we an incorruptible.

Also, if anyone competes in athletics, he isn’t crowned unless he has competed by the rules.

‘For I tell you that to everyone who has, will more be given; but from him who doesn’t have, even that which he has will be taken away from him.

Hold the pattern of sound words which you have heard from me, in faith and love which is in Christ Jesus.

but Christ is faithful as a Son over his house. We are his house, if we hold fast our confidence and the glorying of our hope firm to the end.

Don’t grumble, brothers, against one another, so that you won’t be judged. Behold, the judge stands at the door.

Therefore, as for you, let that remain in you which you heard from the beginning. If that which you heard from the beginning remains in you, you also will remain in the Son, and in the Father.

“I know your works and where you dwell, where Satan’s throne is. You hold firmly to my name, and didn’t deny my faith in the days of Antipas my witness, my faithful one, who was killed among you, where Satan dwells.

Around the throne were twenty-four thrones. On the thrones were twenty-four elders sitting, dressed in white garments, with crowns of gold on their heads.

the twenty-four elders fall down before him who sits on the throne, and worship him who lives forever and ever, and throw their crowns before the throne, saying,

The crown has fallen from our head. Woe to us, for we have sinned!

“But when the righteous turns away from his righteousness, and commits iniquity, and does according to all the abominations that the wicked man does, should he live? None of his righteous deeds that he has done will be remembered. In his trespass that he has trespassed, and in his sin that he has sinned, in them he shall die.

The great day of Yahweh is near. It is near, and hurries greatly, the voice of the day of Yahweh. The mighty man cries there bitterly.

Jesus said to him, “If I desire that he stay until I come, what is that to you? You follow me.”

Let no one rob you of your prize by self-abasement and worshiping of the angels, dwelling in the things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

For now we live, if you stand fast in the Lord.

Test all things, and hold firmly that which is good.

holding to the faithful word which is according to the teaching, that he may be able to exhort in the sound doctrine, and to convict those who contradict him.

let’s hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering; for he who promised is faithful.

When the chief Shepherd is revealed, you will receive the crown of glory that doesn’t fade away.
