Revelation 3:5-6 He who overcomes shall be clothed in white garments, and I will not blot out his name from the Book of Life, but I will confess his name before my Father and before His angels. He who has an ear let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.
The church, as a whole, might not heed the Lord's call, but there will always be a remnant who will be faithful to Jesus. It is to those who stay true to Jesus and obey His words that Jesus promises a white garment. Jesus makes this promise in Revelation 3 verse 4 and 5. When a verse is repeated it is to emphases the importance of this promise. This white garment is given to us by Jesus because we overcame the world through the blood of Jesus. Jesus gives us His righteousness.
I John 2:l5-l6 says "Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eye, and pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world.
Jesus promises the "over comers", "I will confess your name before the Father and before His angel. Jesus tells us "Open your ears and listen when the Holy Spirit speaks to us. Jesus sent the Holy spirit into the world to help us continually day and night.
