The Message to Philadelphia

‘And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write:

    who has the key of David,
    who opens and no one will shut,
        who shuts and no one opens:

‘I know your works. Look, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut. I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name.
