    What the Apostle Paul is doing in this passage is informing the Christians at the Church of Thessalonica that they should and must develop a habit of prayer…and never break that habit!

    Paul's welcome in Thessalonica was less than favorable. Although he had been ill-treated while there, being forced to flee for fear of harm, his commitment and love for the church never diminished.

    Greetings to the Church 1 Thessalonians 1: 1-4 In the book of Acts we discover Paul receiving the Macedonian call, Acts 16: 8-10. This led Paul initially to Philippi and then on to Thessalonica. In that day, Thessalonica was the prominent seaport and capital city of the Roman province of ...read more

    The Heart Of God's Man (Part 1) Series

     | 3,337 views

    The heart of a pastor is unique. In this enlightening text, Paul shares his heart for the church in Thessalonica. Through his candid and honest words, we find a description of what a pastor's heart should contain.

    The Heart of God’s Man (Part 1) 1 Thessalonians 3: 1-13 The heart of a pastor is a very unique thing. He feels many of the same emotions anyone else does. It isn’t that the pastor is given something that is impossible for others to possess, but his heart is special because it is different. I ...read more

    Paul had begun to share the burden of his heart with the church in Thessalonica. Although absent from them, his care and love for the church remained strong. The remainder of this chapter continues to reveal Paul's heart for them.

    The Heart of God’s Man (Part 2) 1 Thessalonians 3: 1-13 (6-13) In our last study we began to consider the heart that Paul had for the church and the work that God had called him to. Just as a reminder, let’s quickly review Vv.1-5. I. The Investment of the Pastor (1-2a) A. His Forbearance (1a) – ...read more

     | 3,226 views

    The Church at Thessalonica was struggling with the idea of Christ Second coming and their loved ones that had gone on before them. Paul in this text, gives them comfort on the coming of Christ.

    The Comfort of His Coming 1 Thess. 4:13-18 Intro The pagan world in Paul’s day had no hope of life after death. The believers in Thessalonica were concerned about their loved ones who had died. What if the Lord should return? Would their deceased loved ones miss out? Will those who are alive ...read more

    The message this Sunday will look at our attitude towards God’s word, and how we approach it, because that is what determines its effectiveness in our lives. We will look at this through Paul’s missionary travels to Thessalonica and Berea.

    The Tale of Two Cities Acts 17:1-15 ** Watch at: https://youtu.be/XGSvRuwVCGo Now, when I came up with the title of today’s message, my immediate reaction was towards the book written by Charles Dickens back in 1879, and the two cities were Paris and London.

    We Need To Commend Ourselves More Often.

     | 4,509 views

    Do we deserve God's commendation for our services to him. Well based on Paul's converts at Thessalonica, I would say we do, because we love to serve the Lord in an age where it is unpopular and irrelevant, and to think of others before our ourselves.

    This sermon was delivered to St Oswald’s in Maybole, Ayrshire, Scotland on the 19th October 2014 (a Scottish Episcopal Church in the Dioceses of Glasgow and Dumfries). Summary: Do we deserve God's commendation for our services to him. Well based on Paul's converts at Thessalonica, I would ...read more

    Paul reassures the believers in Thessalonica who were afraid that those who had died would miss the Second Coming as he writes of the Return, the Resurrection, the Rapture and the Reunion.

    OUR BLESSED HOPE - THE SECOND COMING OF JESUS There’s often an interesting background to what we read in Paul’s letters to the young churches he had founded. The verses we’ve just read (1 Thess 4:13-17) are his response to a misunderstanding that had caused grief to the new Christians at ...read more
