"Heirs of the Kingdom" have privilege, responsibility, and accountability (Mar 13:33–37). "Heirs" is a term that deals with discipleship, not justification/salvation. As we shall see, every child of God is an heir. The question before us is this: How much will I inherit, and will it really matter that much? Every member of the Royal Family has a share in the Royal Inheritance. Again, the question of our study is, “how much?”

1 Thessalonians #1
Scripture References: 1 Thessalonians 1:1-10, Acts 17:1-10, Acts 16:30-31
From Series: "1st Thessalonians - 2006"
The Thessalonians were persecuted for their faith. Paul's first letter to them provides comfort, reminding them of the details of Christ's return for His Church ("The Blessed Hope") and providing practical spiritual lessons for living.
