This passage from the book of Revelation describes Jesus' message to seven churches in Asia Minor. Jesus criticizes the church in Laodicea for being lukewarm, neither hot nor cold, in their faith. He tells them they say they are rich but are actually wretched, miserable, poor, blind and naked. Jesus counsels them to buy gold, white clothes and eye salve from him to be truly rich, clothed and able to see. He warns that he will vomit the lukewarm church out of his mouth if they do not repent and commit to following him wholeheartedly.
