    The Thessalonians

     | 1,948 views

    On of the things that hurts the Lord’s work is that sometimes people join the church who are not sincere in their relationship with the Lord.

    These join for wrong reasons. For example, if you ask people what kind of church they are looking for, some answers will be: • “Well, I do not really like that church, but I probably will join the one down the street because it is convenient.” • “I am looking for a church with a good youth ...read more

    Dealing with people means adjusting to a variety of responses. Some are just nasty, bitter, agitators; others more open-minded/gracious. Some are open to the Gospel, others become adversaries, while others do not embrace the Gospel but are not hostile.

    A Contrast in Heart Attitudes (Acts 17:1-15) 1. “On a highway in Indiana, about 20 cars were trailing behind a slow driver in the passing lane who wouldn’t change lanes.

    The Thessalonians # 2 (2 Of 2)

    In a previous message we learned how Paul brought the gospel message to the Thessalonians.

    For three Sabbath days he preached nothing to them but that Christ • Came. • Suffered. • Died. • Rose from the dead. • Was the Son of God. We find that churches are not spiritually strong that are built on a music program, as important as that may be, nor on a youth program, as important as that ...read more

    The Thessalonian church was a shining example of believers in ministry and gospel outreach. They had all the fruits of the Holy Spirit as we see in the verses of Chapter 1. They radiated faith, hope, love, and steadfastness. They waited patiently for the Rapture.
