The Word Working In You #2
Transformed lives are the best witness (1Th 1:7-9). Example of thanks for believers who God has placed in our lives. Working faith result in a serving love (2Co 5:14). The best leaders are good followers. A faith that lives will be in our sphere of influence as a trumpet blast that can't be ignored. God has delivered us from ALL wrath (1Th 1:10). Ruth has transformed into a labor of love (Rut 2:1-12). The "ethos" of Paul (character - 1TH 2:1-6). Note the phrase "as you know" (1TH 2:1-2, 1TH 2:5, 1TH 2:9-10). The "pathos" of Paul (compassion - 1TH 2:7-9). Combines both sympathy and empathy. The "Logos" of Paul (content - 1TH 2:10-12).

From Series: "1st Thessalonians - The Word Working in You - Uniontown PA 2007"
The Word Working in You' is a study in 1st Thessalonians recorded at Uniontown PA on 19-20 October 2007. The primary focus of the 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.
