Today, with God's help, we'll move on in our study of Thessalonians. The two Letters were sent to a church long ago in a place far away. But they are not artifacts, of interest to historians only. They are the Word of God and speak as directly to us as they did to the people way back then. The ... More >>>

Save File: MP3 - WMA - Sermon Notes | |
In the Book of Revelation, our Lord rebukes a church for losing its first love. The people were solid in other ways, but the bloom of their love was off the rose. They didn't hate each other; they weren't splitting into factions; and they still had the shell of brotherly love. But that's all they ... More >>>

Save File: MP3 - WMA - Sermon Notes | |
The topic of today's passage is Pleasing God.

| | Study in Thessalonians - Sermon 8 of 13 | |
27 Minutes 13 Seconds |
Save File: MP3 - WMA - Sermon Notes | |
The Thessalonians were keenly interested in the Second Coming of Christ. We know they were because Paul wrote more to them about it than he did all of his other books put together.
