The 2012 Northern Virginia Conference was on The Mountaintops of Scripture, giving a dispensational overview of the Bible.
The goals of this study are three-fold: first, to help the Bible student “think through” the Bible story along the lines of God’s promises and their fulfillment in the Person and work of our Lord Jesus Christ. The second objective is for us to gain a sense of how to “rightly divide” the Word of God, according to its own inherent pattern. In so doing, we are able to see its unity and minimize supposed contradictions. Finally, this overall grasp of Scripture will enable us to “tell the story” to others, keeping the focus where it belongs—on Jesus Christ the Savior.

1 Thessalonians #12

1 Thessalonians #12

God the Father made us qualified to share in the Inheritance of Jesus Christ; Common thread throughout 1 Thessalonians: Jesus Christ is coming back! 5 Crowns(stephanos) are offered to believer as an incentive to press on to spiritual maturity: 1) Crown of Joy; 1Th 2:19; Phi 4:1; 2) Imperishable Crown; 1Cor 9:24-27; 3) Crown of Life; Jam 1:12; Rev 2:10; Eph 1:3; Joh 10:10; 4) Crown of Righteousness; 2Ti 4:6-8; 5) Crown of Glory; 1Pe 5:1; often called the 'minister's crown'; but ALL of believers have a ministry that they can be faithful to! Crowns are a part of inheritance; Rom 8:14-17; If you want to be a joint-heir; you are going to suffer; Mat 25:14-30

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.
