| | SARDIS |
 | | Evidently, the Jews' position within the social and cultural life of Sardis was not insignificant. | | | This is at least compatible with the evidence of the synagogue building within the bath-gymnasium, which speaks of a significant Jewish group within Sardis. | | | The rhetorical attack may suggest that a form of Judaism was vital enough in Mileto’s context to warrant his firm condemnation of any association with it. |

| | Sardis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Along with the discovery of the godfearers/theosebeis inscription from Aphrodisias, it provides indisputable evidence for the continued vitality of Jewish communities in Asia Minor, their integration into general Roman imperial civic life, and their size and importance at a time when many scholars previously assumed that Christianity had eclipsed Judaism. | | | (For evidence in the east, see Dura Europos in Syria.) The discovery of the Sardis synagogue has reversed previous assumptions about Judaism in the later Roman empire. | | | The country round Sardis was frequently ravaged both by Christians and by Turks during the 13th century. |

| | This prophecy, therefore, implies that the majority of the Protestants during the Sardis church period did indeed apostatize. | | | When we broaden these two conditions to cover the Sardis church period, we discover that secret societies did not oppose the new emerging Protestant church because Freemasonry and the Reformers had united against the common enemy. | | | Joining secret societies in itself does not cause them to lose salvation, but did begin their descent into apostasy. |
