Revelation 3:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 Let him that hath an ear, hear what the Spirit saith unto the Churches.
7 ¶ [a]And write unto the Angel of the Church which is of Philadelphia, These things saith he that is Holy, and True, which hath the [b]key of David, which openeth and no man shutteth, and shutteth and no man openeth.
8 [c]I know thy works: behold I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my Name.
