and rescue some as if you were snatching them from flames of fire. To others show mercy as you tremble in fear, hating the broken ways that have stained their regalia and ruined their lives.

But there are a few among you in the village of Safe Place (Sardis) with a good reputation, who have not stained their regalia. Dressed in pure white regalia, they will dance by my side in the circle of life, for they are worthy of this honor.
I counsel you to acquire from me gold that has been purified by fire, and then you will truly have great possessions. You must also acquire from me pure white regalia, to hide the shame of your nakedness, and healing ointment to put on your eyes, so you can see.
