April 8, 2015 by Mark Trotter

Recap in 10 Tweets

  1. Our Lord’s letter to the church in Philadelphia is representative of the period of history from approximately 1500 to 1900. #WordStrong
  2. The name Philadelphia means “brotherly love.” #WordStrong
  3. Most people think the key to the Philadelphian Church Period was the Reformation. #WordStrong
  4. The Reformation played an important part in the Philadelphian Church Period…just not the part most Christians think it had! #WordStrong
  5. If your understanding of church history only goes back to the Reformation, you’re gonna be in trouble in these last days! #WordStrong
  6. The trouble will begin when denominations coming out of the Roman Catholic Church believe the MOTHER church has been reformed. #WordStrong
  7. The problem with the Reformers is that they were calling for the wrong thing! They were calling for Reformation! #WordStrong
  8. The answer wasn’t REFORMATION but a REJECTION and REPUDIATION of Catholicism’s works-based salvation & other damnable doctrines. #WordStrong
  9. This period is nothing more than the English Bible translated out of Antioch getting into the hands of the common man. #WordStrong
  10. The Philadelphian Period can be explained very simply by Psalm 119:130: “The entrance of thy words giveth light.” #WordStrong
