Revelation Lesson 11 - To the Church at Philadelphia
Revelation 3:7-13 is the text for this sermon entitled, "The church with an open door: Philadelphia."
Christ told John to write to the congregation in Philadelphia, a church which he said had an open door of opportunity. He acknowledges that they have little strength, but that they have not denied the name of Jesus! A huge problem for them was a group who had come claiming to be Jews, but who were not Jews. Jesus promises that the Philadelphia Christians will overcome and their enemies will fall at their feet, acknowledge that they are beloved of God.
