Sermons About 1-thessalonians
We Study to Remember
What goes through the mind of an apostle? We can never know for certain - aside aside from what is written in the Bible that is. Yet what we have in the Bible is only "half" of the conversation. In other words, we think so much more than we speak or write. Yet by looking at the text of 1 Thessalonians, taking insights from the historical background of the first century, and considering information contained in the book of Acts, we can deduce some concerns Paul may have had about the young "church" in Thessalonica.

We Study To Be An Example
Context is King. If we ignore context we can make the Bible say anything we want. For example, I can command you to do something most think is an "un-Christian" thing to do - all by using Scripture...“Judas went out and hanged himself; do likewise, and what you do, do quickly” (Matt27:5b; Lk3:11; Jn13:27b). All from Scripture; obviously not godly activity - context is vital. How does context impact what Paul writes in the opening chapter of 1 Thessalonians?

Proper Gospel Response
What should we expect to happen when we practice Proper Gospel Ministry? In this message we learn that we should first of all expect people to receive the message as the Word of God, and become imitators of the church. Second, we should expect rejection. As we give out the message of Christ people will try to silence us, even as the Jews tried to silence Paul and the other Apostles. How have you responded to the Gospel message? How is the world responding to the message your giving? Are you even giving a message?
