In this series on OVERCOMING we will be doing a few episodes looking at Jesus' final words to his church.  His desire is for the church to overcome or to conquer.  Now some may think it doesn't really matter in the end, however, Jesus has some stern warnings to some of these churches if they do not overcome or fix the current problem that he sees.  The consequences of not fixing the problem and overcoming are eternal consequences as we will find out as we at each church.

Today we will be looking at the church of Philadelphia.  This church was doing well, but even this they still were commanded to hold fast so that no one would take their crown, they still had to endure to the end and overcome to receive the eternal reward.  This church did not deny Christ, we will look at God's word to understand what this statement truly means.
