"Remember, therefore, what you have received and heard; obey it, and repent. But if you do not wake up, I will come like a thief, and you will not know at what time I will come to you. Yet you have a few people in Sardis who have not soiled their clothes. They will walk with me, dressed in white, for they are worthy. He who overcomes will, like them, be dressed in white. I will never blot out his name from the book of life, but will acknowledge his name before my Father and his angels. He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.'"(Revelation 3:4-6)
Twice in its history the city had fallen to enemies even despite its vertical walls and fortifications because it had not kept watch. "Remember" your past, your commitments and your faith, says the Lord. They were instructed "to repent" to turn from their sin and come back to God. Failure means that Christ will come to them when they least expect it "like a thief." Rather than soiled clothing in this cloth-making city, they would be given holy white garments.
