00:22 are under the power of your voice amen
00:26 amen and amen today we’re gonna look at
00:33 the Epistle to the Thessalonians from
00:36 all the key taught to the Church of the
00:43 Thessalonians was comfort the Church of
00:49 the test selonians was actually quite
00:54 okay according to the Epistle glute
00:57 essence comfort is the key thought the
01:01 key verse of the first epistle to the
01:06 Thessalonians its first Thessalonians 1
01:10 verse them waiting for his son from
01:14 heaven who came back from the dead even
01:17 Jesus our Savior from the wrath to come
01:20 when we will say we’re waiting on the
01:23 Lord realize if you’re just as revealed
01:31 in the spirit if you’re asking the Lord
01:35 for something and you’re not getting it
01:38 you’re not getting it is because you
01:43 have not for you ask not and when you
01:47 ask you ask a Miss you ask for the wrong
01:51 thing because the thing you should be
01:53 asking for is not things of this world
01:55 but to know him who sits on the throne
02:00 hallelujah that is the revelation of the
02:03 spirit that is the revelation on the
02:05 spirit so you can only be waiting in
02:07 peace if you are waiting for the second
02:10 coming
02:11 first Thessalonians one first then
02:13 waiting for his son from heaven who came
02:16 back from the dead even Jesus our Savior
02:18 from the wrath to come so either you’re
02:22 asking for something wrong if you’re
02:25 waiting for something to happen on this
02:26 world you’re asking for the wrong thing
02:29 for if you were in communion with him he
02:33 will tell you how to do it if you are in
02:36 communion with him he will tell you this
02:39 is not for you you’re not going to get
02:41 it if you were in communion with him he
02:44 will tell you you will get it but not
02:46 now in such and such a thing by such as
02:50 such a person for the Lord is explicit
02:54 knows all gives details of everything
02:57 and the Lord is not confused and does
03:00 not confuse you does not want you to
03:02 have a wrong idea so in the Bible when
03:07 the word of the Lord is speaking about
03:08 waiting we are waiting for salvation we
03:14 are waiting for death day when all are
03:18 rewarded all are rewarded for he came
03:22 already he came already and did what he
03:27 had to do showed his love show the love
03:30 of the Father and at the end he said it
03:33 is done and gave the Holy Spirit sent
03:38 the Holy Spirit dois would receive him
03:41 amen amen and amen so now we are waiting
03:45 for when he comes in clouds of glory and
03:48 gives a reward to each and every one
03:51 according to their work according to
03:55 what they have done first Thessalonians
03:56 one first then waiting for his son from
04:00 heaven who came back from the dead the
04:02 resurrected Lord even Jesus our Savior
04:06 from the wrath to come our Savior from
04:11 the wrath to come
04:14 from that reward for a reward is not
04:18 always something positive it is just a
04:21 payment for what you have done in the
04:26 first epistle to the Thessalonians
04:28 Christ is depicted Christ is presented
04:33 as the coming Lord coming Lord the
04:39 conclusion if we have to summarize
04:44 Thessalonians first Thessalonians it
04:47 would be that the coming of the Lord
04:49 Jesus is imminent he soon to come soon
04:55 but let us realize that a breath is like
05:00 10,000 years and ten thousand years is
05:03 like a breath to the Lord the hope of
05:07 his return is the great hope and
05:10 inspiration and comfort of the true
05:13 Christian waiting on the lord I am ever
05:17 waiting watchful and waiting on the Lord
05:22 and i’m not talking about things of this
05:25 world i’m not talking about fulfillment
05:28 of promises i’m talking about his second
05:31 coming for at the appointed time the
05:35 Lord makes everything known to me that I
05:38 must do when I have the through mind of
05:41 Christ when I’m in communion with our
05:44 Lord which we seek to be in communion
05:46 with continuously over everything he
05:51 immediately tells you what to do he
05:53 immediately tells you this is right that
05:55 is wrong to this he’s always there but
06:00 we must be in communion with him and our
06:03 weight is our hope is our fate and our
06:07 hope of his return to create hope the
06:12 inspiration the thing that quickens us
06:15 and makes us do his work the comfort
06:19 from all elements from all troubles of
06:23 the true Christian there’s that word
06:25 again
06:27 Paul continuously talks about true and
06:32 so I hope everyone picks up that if
06:36 there’s a true there is a not so true
06:39 the true Christian the true believer in
06:44 Jesus Christ because that’s what the
06:46 question is right follower of Jesus
06:48 Christ the true disciple of Jesus
06:50 squares in 1st Thessalonians he starts
07:02 out by showing them how much they were
07:05 on his mind that he was always given
07:09 thanks for them and keeping them up in
07:11 praying
07:18 and he also states something interesting
07:21 that was not stated in this way in other
07:26 business and that is how how how much he
07:34 believed how clear it was to him that
07:45 their conversion to God was in truth and
07:49 in sincerity of their faith that it was
07:56 a true conversion to go first
08:03 Thessalonians the Thessalonian Church is
08:06 depicted as a model church it is there
