Revelation 3:7-11
And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth; I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for thou hast a little strength, and hast kept my word, and hast not denied my name. Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee. Because thou hast kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which thou hast, that no man take thy crown.

The church at Philadelphia gets off the easiest from Christ's letters to the various independent churches of Asia Minor. They have kept the faith with patience and done great works, deserving crowns. They have everlasting life and the promise of Jesus that the Jews who persecuted them will be made to know He loves them. This promise extends to all who have overcome in Christ Jesus.

Believe it or not, despite what charlatans online say, there are churches like this today. You can likely find a church full of salt of the earth believers in every county in the US, or within driving distance of one.

Churches with the right gospel, the right mindset, filled with people who love the Lord with patience and faith, doing great works for the Lord, building each other up in persecution and edifying themselves in the word.

And the crowns they earn for themselves in the Kingdom do not rust or mold. They last forever. But that is not something available to you at home, alone, consuming Rumble videos and listening to weirdos spout nonsense.

True discipleship comes from joining the local church to be a worker for the Lord.

Please please please!
