1 Thessalonians 1:4-10

Rev. Hal Farnsworth

The healthy, vibrant, and thus effective church, is one that is committed to God’s mission to gather the nations. The Thessalonian church stands out as one that was clearly on this mission. In chapter one we see just how effective they were, 8 The Lord’s message rang out from you not only in Macedonia and Achaia—your faith in God has become known everywhere. In this text we discover some very important keys, when implemented, with the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit, will enable the local church to be a blessing to those inside and outside the church.
