Feb. 16 “The Miracle: Hope in Death”
1 Thessalonians 4:13-18
As people of faith, we have hope in death because of the amazing miracle of Jesus’ death and resurrection.
Faith in Uncertain Times
1 Thessalonians
We live in uncertain times. Wars rage, our nation is deeply divided, and as Christians, we find ourselves in a culture that is increasingly resistant to our faith. In the book of 1 Thessalonians, the Apostle Paul writes to a church that was also dealing with uncertain times. The Thessalonians lived in a world that was hostile to their faith, enduring persecution and even violence at times. As new believers, they also grappled with confusion about their doctrines and faced the divisive influence of individuals sowing discord among them. Yet, unlike most churches Paul wrote to, he offered the Thessalonians no correction, only encouragement and praise. The Thessalonians provide a great model to learn from as we seek to live our faith in these uncertain times.
