In Light of Our Future

Paul continues reminding Thessalonica regarding what He taught them about Christian ethics and the hope of the Rapture of the Church as motivation for Godly living today. 1. Christian ethics are centered around Jesus’ character and nature. 2. Love is the ongoing command of every Christian who claims to follow Christ. 3. Live for Jesus today, because He hasn’t promised us a tomorrow.

Expectations

Paul's letter to Thessalonica continues with a reminder of the promises God has actually made to us and what we should hope for rather than to confuse them with the things we want. 1. God promised that we would suffer for His sake in this world. 2. God promised that He will finish the work He started. 3. God promised to never leave us or forsake us.
