The second letter of Thessalonians was written weeks or even months after the first letter was written. The main goal of the letter was continue to ground them in their faith. False teachers had entered into the church spreading confusion about the Day of the Lord. They believed what was said and began to behave accordingly. Some had quit their jobs in anticipation of the Lord’s coming. Tonight we...

One of the distinctive marks of those that have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ is a desire to serve him. When Paul wrote his first letter of encouragement to the Thessalonians, he noted that their trust in Christ caused them to turn from idols to serve the living and true God. (1 Thessalonians 1:9)  Before Christ, our lives were consumed with serving idols of money, pleasure, self, prom...

The common experience of humanity without the knowledge of God is to be tossed to and fro by ever wind of doctrine, that is every new teaching that man produces. Solomon said that there is no end of the making of books. (Ecclesiastes 12:12) The internet is full of information that has been proposed as credible only to be discovered upon practice to be very unreliable. Where can we turn in this a w...

The nation of Israel was camped at Mt Sinai after God delivered them from the bondage in Egypt. For unclear reasons, Moses’ wife and two sons were back home in the land of Midian with Jethro, Moses’ father-in-law. The news of God’s mighty acts against Egypt had made it all the way to Midian. Jethro was amazed by what he heard and so he planned to visit Moses in order to learn more and to reunite M...

The reign of Uzziah, king of Judah, was marked by historic blessing and success. He was ruled for more than five decades and the Lord prospered him in every way imaginable. Under Uzziah, Jerusalem and Judah flourished and were safe. However, his story ends tragically and his pride was the reason. All around us pride is promoted as acceptable. Wherever it is found, pride is an abomination to God. W...

An underlying and often unnoticed symptom of pride is not to seek after the LORD. It is a symptom can go months, years and even a lifetime without being resolved. A person can be saved, serving Jesus, faithfully gathering with other believers at church and yet not personally, daily seeking after the Lord. While it may not be obvious to oneself or others, it is obvious to God. Today we will see how...

The night before His death on the cross, Jesus broke bread and handed it to His disciples in the upper room. He was establishing a memorial that His that would help His church to always remember who He was and the price He paid for our redemption. He had already declared Himself to be the bread of life. At the cross, He would be broken for us so that we might have eternal life and an unending supp...

We live in a culture and society that celebrates what God condemns. Perhaps this is not more vividly illustrated than the month of June in our country that is designated as Pride Month. Like Lot, our souls are vexed as we see the displays in Walmart, the headings in your Google calendar, the commercials on TV, the rainbow painted streets, the elected officials making obligatory statements, the div...

Jesus did not call the wise, wealthy, educated or the popular to be ones who would carry on His mission after He ascended to heaven. He called ordinary people like fishermen, tax collectors, persecutors and doctors. Too often, we think that the Great Commission will only be accomplished by those with obvious callings, capabilities and resources. However, this is not the case in the advance of the...

Peter tells us that God is “… not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance .” (2 Peter 3:9)  It the work of getting the Good News to all the world, God uses men and women from many different places and backgrounds to accomplish His mission. Tonight we will see how God used a dedicated couple and a powerful preacher together further the Gospel. We will also see how God...

God has been teaching our church family that the great commission of Jesus Christ is for each of us. We are responsible to take the Gospel to the world in this generation. Our path is through Kettering to the uttermost parts of the earth. If this is to be accomplished, we must all participate in the going. To this end, let's consider a simple principle of life with powerful application to our...

There are many wonderful examples of mothers in the Bible that God has given to us for our benefit. There is the sweet surrender of Mary the mother of Jesus (Luke 1:38), the strong resolve of Jael who defeated the Assyrian general (Judges 4) and the steadfast faith of the widow of Zarephath who fed Elijah not knowing where she would get more food for herself and her son (1 Kings 17). However, ther...

Jesus has fed the multitude with just five loves and tow fish near the shore of the Sea of Galilee. Perceiving that the religious leaders were about to make a move to take Him, Jesus sent His disciples on a head to Capernaum while He went up into a mountain to be alone. As the night progressed a storm arose on the Sea and the disciples thought they were in danger. He went to them by walking on the...

Our world suggests that primary purpose of parenting is to raise children who can function in society as adults and make positive contributions to it. Many parents prioritize achieving financial independence and career satisfaction as goals for their children. While achieving these goals may be good, biblically minded parents will have a higher goal for their children. Let’s consider the life of L...

As we consider Biblical principles for families, it is easy to focus the season of life that includes raising children. However, the God’s Word gives us many illustrations about the grand parenting and what we would call the retirement season of life. Until we stand before God and give an account of our service to Him, we can and should thrive in our relationship with Him and our responsibility to...
