WRITE A LETTER TO THE LEADER OF THE CHURCH AT EPHESUS AND TELL HIM THIS: I WRITE TO INFORM YOU OF A MESSAGE FROM HIM WHO WALKS AMONG THE CHURCHES AND HOLDS THEIR LEADERS IN HIS RIGHT HAND.
HE SAYS TO YOU: I KNOW HOW MANY GOOD THINGS YOU ARE DOING. I HAVE WATCHED YOUR HARD WORK AND YOUR PATIENCE; I KNOW YOU DON'T TOLERATE SIN AMONG YOUR MEMBERS, AND YOU HAVE CAREFULLY EXAMINED THE CLAIMS OF THOSE WHO SAY THEY ARE APOSTLES BUT AREN'T.
YOU HAVE FOUND OUT HOW THEY LIE. YOU HAVE PATIENTLY SUFFERED FOR ME WITHOUT QUITTING. YET THERE IS ONE THING WRONG: YOU DON'T LOVE ME AS AT FIRST.
