And to you I say, and to others that be of Thiatira: Who so ever have not this doctrine, and which have not known the deepness of Satan, as ⟨p. 97⟩they say, I will put upon you none other burden, but that which ye have already: Hold fast till I come. And whosoever overcometh and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over nations, and he shall rule them with a rod of Iron: And as the vessels of a potter shall he break them to shivers. Even as I received of my father, so will I give him the morning star. Let him that hath ears, hear what the spirit sayeth to the congregations.
ANd to you I say, and to others that be of Thiatira: Who so euer haue not this doctrine, and whiche haue not knowen the depenes of Sathan, as ⟨p. 97⟩they say, I will put vpon you none other burthen, but that whiche ye haue already: Holde fast till I come. And whosoeuer ouercometh and kepeth my workes vnto the ende, to him wil I geue power ouer nations, and he shall rule them with a rod of Iron: And as the vessels of a potter shall he breake thē to sheuers. Euen as I receiued of my father, so wyll I geue hym the morning starre. Let hym that hath eares, heare what the spirite saieth to the congregations.
He speaketh here now to the Cataphrygians,1 and also to the faithful of the church of Thyatira that believed rightly in Christ, and healeth their diseases. Wherein appeareth the unspeakable mercy of God, which ceaseth not to speak unto such as are yet entangled with heresy, and to heal their pestiferous diseases. And he admonisheth all men, that they look for no new revelations, but know rather that God hath through Christ and his Apostles set forth a most perfect doctrine, whereunto he will add nothing: And therefore that they keep fast in memory such things as they had learned already, and wherein they were now exercised.
