23. And I will put her sons to death, and all the Churches shall know that I am the one who examines temperaments and hearts. And I will give to each one of you according to your works. But I say to you,
24. and to the others who are at Thyatira: Whoever does not hold to this doctrine, and who has not 'known the depths of Satan,' as they say, I will not set any other weight upon you.
25. Even so, that which you have, hold on to it until I return.
26. And whoever will prevail and will observe my works even unto the end, I will give to him authority over the nations.
27. And he shall rule them with an iron rod, and they shall be broken like the earthenware of a potter.
28. The same I also have received from my Father. And I will give to him the morning star.
