Revelation 2:8-11, Jude 17-19, Jude 16, Revelation 6:15-17 from the Holy Bible

     Revelation 2:8-11; “To the angel of the church in Smyrna write:

        These are the words of him who is the First and the Last, who 

   died and came to life again.  I know your afflictions and your poverty 

   —yet you are rich!  I know about the slander of those who say they

   are Jews and are not, but are a synagogue of Satan.  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, and you will suffer persecution for

   ten days.  Be faith flu, even to the point of death, and I will give you 

   life as your victor’s crown.

        Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the  

   churches.  The one who is victorious will not be hurt at all by the

   second death.

     Jude 17-19; But, dear friends, remember what the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ foretold.  They said to you, “In the last times there will be scoffers who will follow their own ungodly desires.”  These are the people who divide you, who follow mere natural instincts and do not have the Spirit.  Jude 16; These people are grumblers and faultfinders; they follow their own evil desires; they boast about themselves and flatter others for their own advantage.

     Revelation 6:15-17; Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains.  They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb!  For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?”
