Rev 3:18  I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes witheyesalve, that thou mayest see.

Rev 3:19  As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.

Keyword “buy”

G59

ἀγοράζω

agorazō

ag-or-ad'-zo

From G58; properly to go to market, that is, (by implication) to purchase; specifically to redeem: - buy, redeem.

We see from above the word buy means going to a market place, to do business there. The word is used here in the sense of doing business with God on His terms. Man sold himself as slave to sin and Satan. God paid the price of his redemption. Now man is obligated to meet God’s terms of redemption.

Those terms do not mean man paying the price in money, goods, or exchanging material things for the gold, raiment, and ointment.

There are 3 things God requires for the final sale (Redemption).

1) Faith

2) Repentance

3) Service

What service you ask?

(1Co 1:17)  For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

(1Co 9:14)  Even so hath the Lord ordained that they which preach the gospel should live of the gospel.

(1Co 9:16)  For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

(1Co 9:18)  What is my reward then? Verily that, when I preach the gospel, I may make the gospel of Christ without charge, that I abuse not my power in the gospel.

(2Co 2:12)  Furthermore, when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened unto me of the Lord,

(2Co 10:16)  To preach the gospel in the regions beyond you, and not to boast in another man's line of things made ready to our hand.

(Gal 2:2)  And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run, or had run, in vain.
