  1. The Church of God the era of Laodicea

  2. It is obvious that there has once been a large pool in front of the fountain which has been restored occasionally through the years. The most out-standing monument of Laodicea is the stadium with a length of almost 355 and a width of 65 meters, an which used to be one of the most important stadiums of antiquity. Although the squared stones of the seats have been carried away by the local population to be used in the construction of other buildings, the remaining parts suffice to give an idea of its original form an size. Other than these, it is possible to see the ruins of a pretty damaged odeon an another monument which was probably a gymnasium. The necropolis is at the other side of the river bed that lies to the west of the antique site. Quite a number of mausoleums can still be visited at the necropolis today.

  3. The council of Laodicea states in cannon 29: “Christians must not judaize by resting on the Sabbath, but must work on that day, rather honouring the Lord's Day; and, if they can, resting then as Christians. But if any shall be found to be judaizers, let them be anathema from Christ.”
