The Overcomers in Philadelphia: Brotherly Love, Little Power, and Keep the Lord’s Word

February 11, 2026 by aGodMan 9 Comments

...because you have a little power and have kept My word and have not denied My name. Rev. 3:8

The God-ordained pathway for the church is the way of Philaldephia, this God-ordained pathway is the constricted way that leads to life, for we have a little power but keep the Lord’s word and not deny His name, thus having the riches of His life and His light shining on us, with an open door […]

The Overcomers in Philadelphia Keep the Lord’s Word by Remaining in God’s Economy

February 14, 2023 by aGodMan 11 Comments

...because you have a little power and have kept My word and have not denied My name. Rev. 3:8

As those who aspire to be the overcomers in Philadelphia, we need to arrive at the highest peak of the divine revelation in God’s economy; we need to hold to the apostles’ teaching with our little power, not deny the Lord’s name, and have His name inscribed on us as our name-badge that we […]

Keeping the Lord’s Word and being Perfected in His Love by Expressing it in our Living

February 9, 2023 by aGodMan 11 Comments

No one has beheld God at any time; if we love one another, God abides in us, and His love is perfected in us. 1 John 4:12

As believers in Christ, we need to keep the Lord’s word and be perfected in His love by expressing it in our daily living, that is, by habitually loving one another. We need to be perfect as our heavenly Father is perfect by being perfected in His love; when we abide in the Lord’s […]

Holding Fast what we Have and Not Letting it Go so that No one take our Crown!

December 26, 2016 by aGodMan 6 Comments

When brotherly love is gone, the opinion of the majority is the accepted opinion; as long as the majority is in favor, it is all right. When brotherly love is lost, the Body relationship and consciousness are lost. The fellowship of life is cut off as well, leaving only the opinions of men. 2016 fall ITERO, outline 8

This week in our morning revival time we come to the church in Laodicea, the degraded recovered church, the church in which the opinion of the people replaces the Lord’s authority and the brotherly love is replaced by the vote of majority. Philadelphia and Laodicea are a pair: Philadelphia is the orthodoxy of the church, […]

Not Denying the Lord’s Name but Calling on His Name to Enjoy and be Filled with Him

December 24, 2016 by aGodMan 11 Comments

The deviation from the word to heresies and the exaltation of so many names other than that of Christ are the most striking signs of degraded Christianity (Rev. 2:14-15, 20). The return to the pure word from all heresies and traditions and the exaltation of the Lord’s name by abandoning every other name are the most inspiring testimony in the recovered church (3:8). Witness Lee

To the church in Philadelphia, the recovered church, the Lord has given an open door which no one can shut, because they have a little power and have kept His word and have not denied His name; they are not spectacular Christians but normal believers who do the best they can with the little power […]

Having an Opened Door and Keeping the Lord’s Word with the Little Power we Have

December 23, 2016 by aGodMan 10 Comments

We should not regard the church in Philadelphia as being strong, powerful, and prevailing; the Lord said that she had “a little power.” What pleases the Lord is not that we are strong but that we use our little power to do the best we can. 2016 fall ITERO, outline 7

The church in Philadelphia is not made up of super-spiritual Christians who do great works for God, but rather, in the Lord’s eyes they are those who have a little power and have kept His word and have not denied His name, therefore the Lord has put before them an opened door which no one […]
