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 […]

Being the Overcomers of Today, the Weak ones Depending on the Lord to be His Armies

August 18, 2018 by aGodMan Leave a Comment

Rev. 3:8 I know your works; behold, I have put before you an opened door which no one can shut, because you have a little power and have kept My word and have not denied My name.

As we become mature in the divine life, we become the duplication of Christ to match Him for our marriage, and we as the weak ones depending on the Lord to be His overcomers – even His armies. In Song of Songs toward the end we see how the lover of Christ becomes the Shulammite, […]

Not Denying the Lord’s Name but being Saved from Confusion, Scattering, and Mixture

November 29, 2017 by aGodMan 8 Comments

In the church we should not have different kinds of speaking; we should have only one mind and one mouth under one ministry with one unique teaching for the one Body (Rom. 15:5-6; 1 Cor. 1:10; Phil. 2:2; 1 Tim. 1:3-4). When we are in our mind, we are in the principle of Babylon; when we are in our spirit, we are in today’s Jerusalem, in which there is the divine oneness (John 4:23-24; Eph. 4:3). We should not dare to have any division, because our Husband is one, and we His wife are also one (Matt. 19:3-9). The Recovery of the Church (2017 fall ITERO), outline 3

As we read the Bible and realise the principle of Babylon, we need to be saved from denying the Lord’s name and from any confusion, scattering, and mixture. God hates Babylon and the principle of Babylon, for this great city is first of all the culmination of man’s endeavor to build something to make a […]

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 […]
