Revelation 2:15-17
New Testament for Everyone
15 So, too, you have some among you who hold the teaching of the Nicolaitans. 16 So: repent! If you don’t, I will come to you quickly and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth. 17 Let anyone who has an ear listen to what the spirit is saying to the churches. To anyone who conquers I will give secret manna, and a white stone, with a new name written on that stone which nobody knows except the one who receives it.’
