Revelation 2:2 Cross References - Murdock

²³ And then will I declare to them; I never knew you. Depart from me, ye doers of evil.

¹³ For they are false legates, crafty workers, and feign themselves to be legates of the Messiah. ¹⁴ And in this there is nothing strange. For if Satan feigneth himself an angel of light, ¹⁵ it is no great thing if his ministers feign themselves ministers of righteousness; whose end shall be according to their works.

⁷ which doth not exist, except as there are some who would disquiet you, and are disposed to pervert the gospel of the Messiah.

¹⁹ But the firm foundation of God standeth; and it hath this seal, The Lord knoweth them who are his: and, Let every one who invoketh the name of our Lord, stand aloof from iniquity.

¹ But in the world, there have been also false prophets, as there will likewise be false teachers among you, who will bring in destructive heresies, denying the Lord that bought them; thus bringing on themselves swift destruction. ² And many will go after their profaneness; on account of whom, the way of truth will be reproached. ³ And, in the cupidity of raving words, they will make merchandise of you: whose judgment, of a long time, is not idle; and their destruction slumbereth not.

²¹ I have not written to you, because ye know not the truth, but because ye know it, and because no falsehood is of the truth. ²² Who is false, but he that denieth that Jesus is the Messiah? And that person is a false Messiah. He that denieth the Father, denieth also the Son.

In like manner, repent thou.
