    Paul writes to encourage these new believers that Jesus was coming back for those who were trusting in Him, and for those who had died trusting in Him. They did not need to have hopeless sorrow over their departed loved ones who died knowing Jesus

    Encouraging Words for Troubled Times 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18 Intro: To the average person you might meet downtown or on the street, the idea that Jesus is coming back for all who believe in Him is a crazy one!

    There are six things I want to point out about these 3 verses. The events of the Lord’s return and of the resurrection are clearly spelled out in these verses.

    Last Wednesday in 1 Thess. 4: 13-15, Paul told us he didn’t want us to be ignorant about those who have fallen asleep. He basically told us that it was OK to grieve over the loss of our loved ones, but he said not to grieve as one who has no hope. He assured us that our loved ones who have died ...read more

    There should be clear differences between Christians and the world. This sermon looks at how the word hope differs between Christians and the world. Christians have real hope and the world has false hope.

    Things That Make Christians Different From The World: Hope Hope is a remarkable word in our world and in the world it can mean anything from I sure do hope that it rains today to I hope I win the lottery today to I hope that I’m saved or I hope that I’m going to go to heaven.

    This is a study of the Rapture in the book of Revelation. This is a controversial subject but takes a conservative approach to understanding the book.

    Note: I used many sources to study this book, one of my favorites is Revelation: God’s Word for the Biblically-Inept by Daymond Duck and some out of different study bibles. Title: The Rapture Theme: To help us to understand the rapture more. Text: 1 Thes 4:13-18, Revelation 1:19 1 ...read more

    Jesus, on His return: 1. He will return, 2. No man knows when, 3. We always need to be ready. #3 is often overlooked. ALWAYS BE READY, and also beware of incorrect predictions, while we compassionately pray for those involved.
