What does Jesus mean in Revelation 3:3 when He states, "Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God?"

3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.

First thing I would do, before ANYTHING is: Take that New International Version (NIV) “I wonder if my sex change operation or I identify as a Lesbian with my feelings” Bible and throw it in the trash. Do that FIRST. Pile of pig vomit. It’s as awful as the Jehovah’s Witness Bible. Worse.

What you actually quote is from Revelation 3:2.

Hi everybody! I have been looking at posts on narcs and narc abuse on here and if has really helped me out a lot. I am currently struggling with my situation and need some advice/support. I met a narc last year, everything seemed to good to be true. Love bombing, always texting calling and taking me on dates. Everything changed when someone warned me about him out in public in front of him and who he is. This caused a conflict with us and the love bombing seized. he would tell me that everything is okay and i can come and talk. He would set a time limit on me and kick me out after that. he would then text me like everything was fine and we hung out again and after that he completely ghosted me for one week. He came back and texted me a week later laughing about the ghosting and acting like nothing had happened. he continued to text me ( not like in the beginning) make plans with me, then on the day of the plans he would just ghost me. One day he would act interested the next silence. i contacted him a month later and he acted like nothing happened. He was on a vacation and sent me a picture of another woman ( someone he allegedly met on the trip) to strike a reaction but i never gave him one. After the trip he came to my place and was extremely rude, accusing me of going on dates with a bunch of men. The next day he accused me of being an alcoholic and that he wanted nothing to do with me but said well maybe we can be "friends" then ghosted me i assumed at this point it was over and i would never hear from him again. He contacted me on the holiday a month later acting like everything was great. We ended up hanging out a month or so later and when we hung out it went well, i thought things were going in the right direction. after we hung out.. silence. I would try to text him and if he replied it would be very short then he just stopped replying. He ghosted me for almost three months. I thought he was done this time and of course he popped up again like nothing happened. At this point i was getting sick of if so i questioned him as to why he dissapeared and always does this. Of course he had some sob story about a injury and family member dying of cancer. I felt pity for him and he gave me an apology.. so i took him back stupidly. things seemed to be going smooth for a couple months, of course until his family member died and his injury got better he never contacted me and was distant. Menawhile, i was there for him during the difficult time for him. He lied to me about the funeral and never wanted to chat. I was chasing him and he would always claim nothing was wrong but when i said i thought he used me when he was down he could not handle it and would always tell me he didnt care and to go away. I would get so upset i would try texting him to work it out he would barelt respond and if he did he would not be nice about it. we did hang out a couple times after that, he would ignore me after. One day i was like hey i think you are seeing someone else, and i was like well ixam seeing someone so no problem if you are he said " buy bye good luck with your new guy stop contacting me" i was devastated and tried to get into contact with him for weeks then i just gave up and accepted it was over. He ended up contacting me a month later acting like everything was fine. He wanted to go out and have drinks i told him i would. He and i both seemed to have a great time. He ends up ignoring me again. I kept texting him trying to figure out what was wrong. He kept saying everything was fine and i said ok can we hang out again? He said maybe i was like why? He just kept saying maybe … our last conversation we had… i said what is wrong ? He said nothing is wrong everything is fine. I asked him why he keeps saying maybe. He said " maybe but i dont want to see you right now" i said why? He saix " im just not feeling it, if i wanted to date i would" i said why did you contact me less then a week ago wanting to go out? He said i didnt.. even though he did. So i said should i just move on or what? He said whatever you want to do. So i said that he was really confusing me and asked him if he had anything more to say before i move on? My messages were turning green so i panicked he blocked me and reacted irrationally. I said " omg did you block me? My messages are not going through. Even texted him on my work phone asking what was up. And called him twice ( please dont judge me i know it is pathetic i never was this type of girl before him) so he replied and said " Ok I'll block you now" then immedietly blocked me. He has never blocked me before since I have met him he will just ghost. Is this ths final discard aka " grand finale? Did i just push him too far? this has upset me so much its hard to even function.

8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

Heaven and earth shall pass away but God’s Word shall never pass away, and, he decreed Sardis was to live by every word proceeds out of his mouth, just like he decreed you live the same way.

What is a good habit and what is bad one?

You have his name; remember what you already received and heard - The Word of God).

2 Be watchful, and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found thy works perfect before God.

Jesus Christ is the Word of God.

Why do black people prefer thick, curvy women?

KEY POINT:

‘seeing’ and can’t see; hearing; listen unto someone else, anyone BUT God and his Word proceeds out of his mouth.

It has a way like the military people stand “watches” - they are “vigilant” - it’s a “practice” [you actually use or apply the Word of God], and it strengthens that which remains, which, Sardis had his name, but didn’t have any of the Word of God that came with his name anymore.

Can a bride cheat on her groom at a wedding?

Be “watchful” - “watching” [watching someone or something closely; alert and vigilant] - which if you’re “watchful” about your house, or the neighbor’s dog, how he somehow gets in and secretly poops in the lawn, so you watch and wait for the neighbor’s dog vs. set your mind on things above, which is the Word of God.

The Second is: Repent. Go back:

So RECAP:

What legal actions can be taken if a neighbor's unleashed dog causes harm or injury?

What does Jesus mean in Revelation 3:3 when He states, "Wake up! Strengthen what remains and is about to die, for I have found your deeds unfinished in the sight of my God?"

1. To “remember” this, [have or be able to bring to one's mind someone or something from the past] - So, the people in Sardis, claim his name, but God sees their works. They “live” dead. So, they are NOT living by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God, but just by dead works, work at things he never said for them to do.

So, the first thing God asks those in Sardis that have his name is to remember what they already received and heard, which was the Word of God, just like he says to EVERYBODY, to the very ends of the earth to: “LOOK UNTO ME, AND BE YE SAVED ALL THE ENDS OF THE EARTH: FOR I AM GOD, THERE IS NONE ELSE.” - God. (Isaiah 45:22).

Is it ok to be spanked by your parents if you are not in bed in your set bedtime?

5 He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

So, the Church is Sardis isn’t “doing” anything. Dead. Not abiding. Just has a name, but are not doing anything he says; and they are not looking for him coming. Like he told EVERYBODY to above in Matthew 24:36. They’re not looking for him anymore. Looking “how” they’re going to pay the mortgage this month, or how they're going to reduce the electric bill. Looking how they’re going to get Suzie into College next year, when there isn’t any money for it. The cares and pleasures of this life and snuck in, and they no longer abide in the Word of God.

You’ll be asleep to him and what he says.

Why is only the left side of my vagina bleeding, on and off?

FIRST is:

SECOND is:

5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

Why do gun owners feel the need to defend themselves with deadly weapons? Can they not just talk things out like civilized people do?

6 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.”} - >

Be “watchful.” “Strengthen that which remains.” (The Word of God remains for eternity)

4 Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.

Why do some men want to remain single despite the fact that many women want to have a romantic relationship with them?

Instead of what you have, which is dead. Not looking unto him. Go back. Have and keep what God said. Abide in it. Do what he said vs. “dead works” doing anything BUT what he says or said.

It’s INCOMPLETE without you look unto him. You do, it’s a work that he wants that’s COMPLETE. And? All “Complete” in the dictionary means is, you don’t have to add to, or take away anything from it. It’s Perfect. Because he makes up the lack. He’s God.

“1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.

How can we worship Shri Krishna at home? Is it enough to install an idol, or are there other rituals that are mandatory?

Repent. (By the Word of God vs. your own word; like Sardis: dead)

Says in Matthew 4:4 “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” - Jesus Christ. The Word of God.

(Revelation 3:1–6), says:

GameStop Earnings Reveal Return to Profits. Why the Stock Is Dropping. - Barron's

And, Revelation 3:3 says:

SO: “Watchful” has a way to have you “strengthen that which remains” the Word of God in you, and, it remains for eternity, so why are you picking up things that don’t, to “walk” after, to “walk in” and look unto those instead, when LIFE is in what he says.

2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.

What do most wives fantasize about?

Look unto him.

Key Point:

6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.

How do I build rapport with anybody?

So, it’s God. What Word God is speaking out of his mouth, to the Church at Sardis

So, the “Key Point” is Jesus Christ.

The Word of God remains. “Heaven and earth shall pass away but my word shall not pass away. But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only” - Jesus Christ. Matthew 24:35–36

Is anal sex allowed in Islam? It's not written anywhere in the Quran whether it's forbidden or not.

THIRD is:

Asked you to look unto him. That’s what he said. Did you forget? Said: “LOOK UNTO ME, AND BE YE SAVED ALL THE ENDS OF THE EARTH: FOR I AM GOD, THERE IS NONE ELSE.” That’s COMPLETE. A “finished” work he wants done, because, HE. ASKED. FOR. IT. That’s what he wants.

4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.

How is cultural invasion being carried out by Bollywood?

So, the “Third” thing is:

That’s what HE said.

Sardis: You already have his name; remember [have and be able to bring to one’s own mind what you had in the past] what they already received and heard. vs.

Jesus Christ: Is the Word of God.

“Watchful” takes “practice” [actually apply or use of an idea, belief, or method, [the Word of God] as opposed to theories relating to it.]. So, instead of actually applying or use the Word of God, YOU:

“use an idea” of by a security system with six cameras, all to catch the dog in the act. This “Look unto” the day, or hour the dog is on surveilance video, how you can champion it to the offending neighbor and all that work is dead; just some “thing” you relate to being a Christian, but it’s NONE of his work in it. Fill your whole life with those works. Let them overtake it.

To ‘bring to one’s mind something or someone from the past which is the Word of God. To live by every word that proceeds out of his mouth. That’s the “works of God,” that, we took, today, live by every word proceeds out of his mouth, just like those in Sardis.

To “hold it fast” - this, “have and keep” the Word of God. Just as Jesus said. To “abide” in his word. That if you don’t you dry up; wither away; dead. Are cut away as dead branches. Gathered up and cast into the fire. Jesus said this plainly already in John 15:1–8

< - {“…1 And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead.

7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.

“Who” he is. It’s “who” God made Lord.
