1st Thessalonians – The Word Working in You – 2007
The primary focus of Paul’s epistles to the Thessalonians, written A.D. 50–51, is Christian living in light of eternity, which results in balance. The “bookends” of 1Th 1:3 and 1Th 5:8 reveal the book’s theme—the well-balanced Christian life. The book also teaches that God’s Word works through faith. Interestingly, this epistle is closely related in content to the Old Testament book of Ruth, which provides a perfect biblical illustration of the practical truths of this book.

God wants us to grow up (Eph 4:13-16). Children (infants) can be deceived (Eph 4:14, 2Co 11:3). Unity results from knowledge of Jesus Christ. We're to speak the truth in love (Eph 4:15, Eph 5:18-19, Col 3:14-17). When we do we serve the body and the head, Jesus Christ, better.
More than any book Ephesians reveals the blessings from God based on our relationship with Jesus Christ by grace through faith. Eph 1:3 is the a key verse. Other key verses by chapter include Eph 2:8 Eph 3:19 Eph 4:1 Eph 5:18 and Eph 6:10-11.
