Rev 3:14 (CEV)

14This is what you must write to the angel of thechurch in Laodicea: I am the one called Amen! I am

the faithful and true witness and the source of God's

creation. Listen to what I say. 15I know everything

you have done, and you are not cold or hot. I wish

you were either one or the other. 16But since you are

lukewarm and neither cold nor hot, I will spit you out

of my mouth.....

PASSION BUSTERS

...17You claim to be rich and successful and to

have everything you need. But you don't know

how bad off you are. You are pitiful, poor, blind,

and naked. 18Buy your gold from me. It has been

refined in a fire, & it will make you rich. Buy whiteclothes from me. Wear them & you can cover up

your shameful nakedness. Buy medicine for your

eyes, so that you will be able to see.
