The Credibility of Love
If we are going to make an impact on the people around us with the life-saving gospel of Jesus Christ, we are going to have to invest our lives in them and serve them in love. We are going to have to put our stuff aside and intentionally reach out to them and give of ourselves to them, so that they can see that we actually care. If they know that we care they will listen to what we have to say.
The dying thief
See how Jesus Christ fulfilled the role of High Priest of God's people as predicted by Isaiah 700 years before, particularly in the life of a dying thief who had nothing to bring but a plea for mercy.
First Corinthians 9
Every Christian is called to make disciples, so what are you doing to win people for the Gospel of Christ Jesus?
The Credibility of Endurance
Paul and his team had boldness to continue to preach the gospel even in the midst of dangerous circumstances and by doing so they destroyed the slanderous accusations brought against them by the Jews and proved to the Thessalonian church that both their ministry and the gospel they proclaimed was credible. With present day stereotypes and slander against Christianity, we too need to show that the gospel is credible and one way is by overcoming our timidity and fear and continuing to share even when circumstances get tough.

The Role of the Holy Spirit
How We Are to Communicate with the Dead
In these last words of an apostle, who will soon be executed for the convictions of his faith, Paul instructs young Timothy through the guidance of the Holy Spirit to not engage in word wars (v. 14). Church was never meant to be a theological Berkley where every man gets equal air time to espouse what he thinks about metaphysical truth. We are not a people who evolved out of a melting pot of religious ideas. We are a people who are born again through the cleansing effect of God's divinely revealed word. By the power of His Holy Spirit we were created anew in Christ; not as a people of psychology or philosophy, or human speculation, but a people of the word. Which is why we diligently work to rightly handle every verse of Scripture (v. 15). Thus verse 16 ... we avoid irreverent babble, worldly chatter, the speculating ideas of Darwin, Spencer, Skinner, Freud, L. Ron Hubbard, Joseph Smith, or Charles Taze Russell because once you mingle the faulty rhetoric of fallen man with the divinely revealed truth of a holy God, the result is always heresy and it spreads like gangrene (v. 17) causing people to swerve from truth (v. 18) resulting in dishonorable vessels (v. 20) that the Master of this great house cannot and will not use because a steady diet of error is displeasing to a holy God of truth. Thus vessels for honorable use have to be clean ... head (v. 21) and heart (v. 22) then in today's text he deals not with the what of verse 16, or the why of verse 21, but the how of verses 23ff how we are to communicate with spiritually dead men.
Ready to Make an Impact
Most of us want God to use us to share the gospel with those who are spiritually lost, but most of us would also say our impact is far less than what it should be. We often don't think about the spiritual condition of the people around us and when opportunities come, we often let them slip away. In 1 Thessalonians 1:6-10 we can see how God was using the young Thessalonian church to make a significant impact in their world with the gospel and what it was about them that prepared them to be used by God wherever they were and whatever they were doing.
