1 Thessalonians 1:1-10
1Paul, Silas and Timothy, To the church of the
Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord
Jesus Christ: Grace and peace to you. 2We always
thank God for all of you, mentioning you in our
prayers. 3We continually remember before our
God and Father your work produced by faith,
your labor prompted by love, and your endurance
inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.

1 Thessalonians 1:1-10
4For we know, brothers loved by God, that he
has chosen you,5because our gospel came to
you not simply with words, but also with
power, with the Holy Spirit and with deep
conviction. You know how we lived among you
for your sake. 6You became imitators of us
and of the Lord; in spite of severe suffering,
you welcomed the message with the joy given
by the Holy Spirit. 7And so you became a
model to all the believers in Macedonia and
Achaia.

1 Thessalonians 1:1-10
8The Lord's message rang out from you not
only in Macedonia and Achaia--your faith in
God has become known everywhere. Therefore
we do not need to say anything about it, 9for
they themselves report what kind of reception
you gave us. They tell how you turned to God
from idols to serve the living and true God,
10and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom
he raised from the dead--Jesus, who rescues
us from the coming wrath.

prompted by love, and your endurance inspired
by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. 4For we know,
brothers loved by God, that he has chosen
you,

1 Thessalonians 1:3-6
5because our gospel came to you not simply
with words, but also with power, with the
Holy Spirit and with deep conviction. You

6You became imitators of us and of the Lord;
in spite of severe suffering, you welcomed the

CONCLUSION :
If you would remain positive, you will
become MODELS not only to the
believers but EVERYWHERE! – verse 7-8

The Thessalonians are commended for their faith, love, and endurance inspired by hope in Jesus Christ. They imitated Paul, Silas, and Timothy by welcoming the gospel message with joy despite suffering, and became a model for other believers. As a result of their faithful reception of the message, the Thessalonians' faith became known throughout Macedonia, Achaia, and beyond. They turned from idols to serve the living God and to wait for his Son, Jesus, who rescues believers from coming wrath.

Recognise The Supremacy Of Christ

This document contains excerpts from a sermon or teaching on the supremacy of Christ based on the book of Colossians. It discusses how Christ is sovereign over all creation as its creator and sustainer. It also explains how Christ is sovereign over the church and over death through his resurrection. Finally, it discusses how Christ reconciles all things to God through his death on the cross, and how believers can have hope for the future if they remain steadfast in their faith in the gospel.

1 Thessalonians v. 2

Dr. Bella Pillai

The document summarizes key aspects of Paul's first letter to the Thessalonians. It discusses Paul setting a true Christ-like example for the believers through thankful prayers, work of faith, labor of love, and steadfast hope. Paul also established tender relationships with believers like a nurse, father, and brother to encourage and strengthen their faith. Paul provided a transforming hope by outlining believers' life of hope, love from hope, and limitless future in hope upon Christ's return. The letter also offers tips on having an alert yet patient attitude and avoiding evil.

Gospel Boot Camp part 1 (Basic Training)

Paul introduces himself as a servant of Christ Jesus called to be an apostle. He discusses how the gospel was promised beforehand through prophets in the Holy Scriptures regarding God's Son Jesus, who was descended from David and declared with power to be the Son of God by his resurrection from the dead. Through Jesus, Paul and others received grace and apostleship to call people from among all nations to obedience through faith, including the Romans. Paul is obligated to preach the gospel to both Jews and Gentiles because the gospel is God's power for salvation to all who believe, as it reveals a righteousness from God through faith.

Serve Christ With Purpose

All Peoples Church and World Outreach

Paul faces pressures in serving Christ but finds joy in suffering for the churches. His purpose is to proclaim the gospel, present the whole truth of Scripture, and bring believers to maturity by teaching, admonishing, and contending with all his energy. He wants to encourage believers and enlighten them with a full understanding of Christ so they may know the mystery of God. Maturity is a process that requires effort, discipline, and growing in grace through Scripture.

Part-3 :The Holiness of God : His Holiness in me

Live A Christ-Like Life

The document discusses living a Christ-like life through humility, obedience, and faith. It encourages setting one's heart and mind on Christ, putting off sinful desires, and putting on virtues like compassion, kindness, and forgiveness. Believers are called to let the peace of Christ rule in their hearts, dwell on His word, and do all things in Jesus' name with gratitude. Living this way involves imitating Christ's humility, obedience, and enduring the cross for purification of sins and giving repentance and forgiveness to others.

Sanctification, Become Who You Are

Paul writes a letter to the church in Colossae to encourage them and refute heretical teachings. He thanks God for their faith, love, and fruitfulness since hearing the gospel. Paul has been continuously praying for their spiritual wisdom, understanding, and growth so that they may please God and bear fruit. His goal is to encourage and unite the believers in their knowledge and understanding of Christ.

Names of God part 14 (Abba, Father)

These passages from Romans 8 discuss the role of the Holy Spirit for Christians and the identity and privileges of being a child of God. They state that those led by the Spirit are not controlled by sin but live righteously. The Spirit testifies that believers are adopted children of God who can call God "Father" and will inherit eternal life and glory. Being God's children through the Spirit means freedom from condemnation and a place in His family.

Pre Encounter Lesson 1: Four Wonderful Opportunities

Rhea Deligero

This document outlines four opportunities provided through encountering God: 1) The opportunity to encounter God and be restored when seeking Him with all your heart. 2) The opportunity to be reconciled with God by acknowledging and repenting of sins. 3) The opportunity for restoration through Christ's death for our sins. 4) The opportunity to receive God's provision and become His children through faith in Jesus. The document encourages applying these truths by having an encounter with Christ, repenting of sins, and receiving God's redemption and provision.

M2013 s51 adoption 8 18-13 sermon

James Bradshaw

This document summarizes a sermon about adoption based on Galatians 4:1-7. It discusses how: 1) Before Christ, humanity was held in bondage like slaves or children, limited until spiritual maturity. 2) God sent Christ at the appointed time to redeem those under the law's bondage, so that through faith people could be adopted as sons with all the rights and privileges of sons. 3) By accepting this redemption and separating from the world, believers can call God their Father and inherit eternal life as his heirs, no longer slaves but adopted sons.

10 Transformative New Year Prayers

Pray For Enlightenment

It encourages thanking God for the faith of believers and praying to understand the hope of God's calling, His inheritance in believers, and His great power, as described in Ephesians 1.

Holiness as a State or Condition

El Shaddai Christian Church

1. Holiness is described as both a state or condition that Christians are in as well as a process of becoming more holy. 2. When a person becomes a Christian, they are made positionally holy but still have work to do in becoming practically holy as the process continues until fully realized in heaven. 3. Staying holy requires depending daily on God and avoiding sin, with a focus on sexual purity and living a clean life pleasing to God.

Living Hope - 21 April 2019 - Bruce McCallum

The document contains passages from Isaiah 40:31, 1 Peter 1:1-7, and commentary on the key themes. It summarizes that Christians have hope because: 1) God chose them before they chose Him. 2) God always treats them with mercy, no matter their mistakes. 3) God has put eternity in their hearts. 4) God's power will protect them. 5) God uses their difficulties and trials to grow their living hope in Him.

The reason for christmas

Pio "Boyvee" Jr. Velasco

This document discusses the reasons for Christmas according to several Bible passages from Luke, John, Galatians, Genesis, Romans, and other books. It provides 10 reasons: 1) To redeem us from the curse of the law, 2) So Abraham's blessing will come to us, 3) So we will receive adoption as God's children, 4) So the Holy Spirit will live in our hearts, 5) To transform us from slaves to heirs, 6) To seek and save those who are lost, 7) To call sinners to repentance, 8) To take away our sins, 9) To save sinners, man, and the world, and 10) To reveal that God is for us. It concludes

Salvation

AndreHSimarmata1

Salvation in Christianity involves reconciliation with God through Jesus Christ's sacrificial death on the cross. All people need salvation because we have all sinned and fallen short of God's glory. To receive salvation, one must confess with their mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in their heart that God raised him from the dead. While faith alone saves us, true faith will produce good works and spiritual maturity. Our salvation ultimately comes from God's mercy and grace, not from any righteous acts on our part. We are to continue working out our salvation with fear and trembling. Children can receive salvation as the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as them.

For the Common Good

This document discusses building up the body of Christ through participation, partnership, and using spiritual gifts. It emphasizes that as members of Christ's body, we each have different gifts given by the Holy Spirit for the common good. It encourages readers to arm themselves with Christ's attitude, live for God not sinful desires, and use their gifts to serve others faithfully as they build up the church in love. The goal is for God to be praised through our united service as we go forward in hope, faith, and love.

JAMES 8 - JESUS' WORKS, YOUR WORKS - PTR ALVIN GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICE

The document discusses the relationship between faith and works. It summarizes the perspectives of James and Paul, arguing that they do not contradict each other. James emphasizes that true faith is demonstrated through works, while Paul emphasizes that salvation comes through faith alone, not works. The document identifies three types of faith: dead faith with no works, demonic faith that knows facts but does not transform lives, and dynamic faith that is demonstrated through obedience and good works. It concludes that Christians are saved by grace through faith to do good works, not by works themselves.

ATTACHMENT 4 - SIS. DONNA TARUN - 6:30PM EVENING SERVICE

The document discusses Paul's teachings on marriage, singleness, and sexuality from 1 Corinthians 7. Some key points include: Paul says it is better for people to remain unmarried so they can devote themselves fully to God, but if they cannot exercise self-control, it is better to marry. He also teaches that marriage should be between a man and woman, divorce is discouraged, and both married and unmarried people should remain in the situations they were in when they became Christians. The purpose of singleness is to live without distractions in order to devote full attention to God.

This document discusses biblical passages about marriage from Ephesians 5:22-33. It provides commentary on what it means for wives to submit to their husbands and for husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church. For wives, submission does not mean they are less valuable or intelligent, but takes their cue from the Trinity where the Son submits to the Father. For husbands, loving their wives as Christ loved the church means taking responsibility for the family's well-being, being a good head that respects authority, and cherishing their wife unconditionally like a gardener cares for a garden. The overarching message is that marriage should reflect the love and devotion between Christ and the church.

eaglepointcf

The document discusses the nature of joy from a biblical perspective. It explores joy as described in the Old Testament as being bright, exuberant and the result of fellowship with God. The New Testament describes joy as a grace and favor that results from recognizing God's grace. True joy comes from abiding in God's love by obeying his word. The early church was characterized by praising God with glad and sincere hearts. Believers can have joy even in persecution, sacrifices, service and trials as their faith is refined.

Sanctification

Bible Preaching

Sanctification is the process by which God separates believers from sin and dedicates them to his service. It is effected by God, Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Believers are sanctified through the atoning work of Christ, the word of God, and by being in Christ. Sanctification leads believers to mortify sin and pursue holiness. Ministers should pray and exhort believers to progress in sanctification, as it is necessary for inheriting God's kingdom. In the Old Testament, various people and objects were sanctified or set apart for holy use as a type of sanctification.

The disciples were unable to cast out a demon and asked Jesus why. Jesus responded that it was because of their small faith, saying that even a tiny amount of faith could move mountains. Jesus then told a parable about a prodigal son who wasted his inheritance and returned home seeking forgiveness. The father welcomed his son back with open arms and celebrated his return, angering the older son who was jealous of the welcome. The parable teaches about God's forgiveness and mercy for those who repent.
