Model and Example
Bible Text: Thessalonians 1, Hebrews 13:2, James 1 | Speaker: Eldon Cook | Series: Lessons from Thessalonians | The Thessaloniki church was an example to the churches then and today. They were an example in 4 key areas: Hospitality, Turning to God, Obedience, and Waiting.
Show hospitality reaching out to strangers.
Turn to God stop focusing on your flaws, your limitations. Start turning to God and the idols of this world will fall away.
Obedience starts from our hearts out of love. i.e. Moses striking the rock in disobedience. Look into God’s word like a mirror; study; adjust; obey the word as you are changed you into the image of Christ.
We need to be waiting with anticipation and exceptions for the return of Christ.
