Chapter 6 Section 5 THE PHILADELPHIAN STATE |
|||
Vol. I, ch. III, sec.iv, 6
The Sardian state of the Ecclesias, in which things spiritual
were "ready to die," merged into that in which the "few
names," representative of those who were not "dead," were
the "little strength" -- the Philadelphian. The
philosophical christianity and superstition of Satan’s synagogue
everywhere prevalent. The "little strength" the
salt that preserves the christian community from utter corruption
(Apoc. iii. 7). ACT V. SEAL-PERIOD FIFTH Apoc. vi. 9,10,11.
A period of great resistance unto blood on the part of the arrowless
Bowman engaged in the conquest of the paganism of the Fourth
Beast. A.D. 303
"And when He opened the Fifth Seal, I saw underneath the
Altar the souls of them who had been slain on account of the
word of the Deity, and on account of the testimony which they
held. 10. And they cried with a loud voice, saying, ’Until
then, O thou who art the Despot holy and true, dost thou not
judge and avenge our blood upon them who dwell upon the earth?
11. And to them each were given white robes, and it was answered
to them that they should repose yet a short time while both
their fellow-servants and their brethren should be filled
up, who are about to be killed even as they."
