Polycarp's Message to the Church of Smyrna

Many biblical scholars think that polycarp is referred to or addressed by Christ and John the apostle in the book of Revelation. He goes through some recognition or some recognition and then a challenge. I know your tribulation, your poverty, you're rich. The slander of those who say they're Jews and are not, but are the synagogue of Satan. Do not fear what you're about to suffer. Be faithful unto death and I will give you the crown of life.
