Further Study: Friends Forever

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 9, 2012 by SSNET StaffMay 27, 2015avatar

“The arrival of Silas and Timothy from Macedonia, during Paul’s sojourn in Corinth, had greatly cheered the apostle. They brought him ‘good tidings’ of the ‘faith and charity’ of those who had accepted the truth during the first visit of the gospel messengers to Thessalonica. Paul’s heart went out in tender sympathy toward these believers, … Continue reading –>

Thursday: Paul’s Renewed Prayers (1 Thess. 3:11-13)

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 8, 2012 by SSNET StaffMay 27, 2015avatar

The second coming of Jesus is a powerful incentive to spiritual growth. Every act of abuse or oppression will be brought to justice. Every act of love or kindness will be recognized and rewarded (see, for example, Matt. 10:42). That means that every act in this life, no matter how small, has meaning in the ultimate scheme of … Continue reading –>

Wednesday: The Result of Timothy’s Visit (1 Thess. 3:6-10)

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 7, 2012 by SSNET StaffMay 27, 2015avatar

Read 1 Thessalonians 3:6-8. Timothy was sent to encourage the Thessalonians. What aspects of Timothy’s report brought joy and encouragement to Paul? That is, what did Timothy see in the Thessalonians that Paul thought was so good? The “but now” of verse 6 is very emphatic. Paul did not waste any time before sitting down to … Continue reading –>

Tuesday: Timothy’s Substitute Visit (1 Thess. 3:1-5)

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 6, 2012 by SSNET StaffMay 27, 2015avatar

Read 1 Thessalonians 3:1-5 and Matthew 24:9-22. In what larger context does Paul see the sufferings of the Thessalonians and himself? Paul is so distressed about his absence from the Thessalonians that he decides to forgo the companionship of Timothy in Athens in order to get firsthand news of their situation. His intense longing for them leads him … Continue reading –>

Monday: Paul’s Hope and Joy (1 Thess. 2:17-20)

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 5, 2012 by SSNET StaffMay 27, 2015avatar

In the fourteen verses that run from 1 Thessalonians 2:17 through 3:10, Paul offers a chronological account of his separation from the Thessalonian believers. The theme of friendship runs throughout the passage. These Thessalonians are not just parishioners of Paul; they are truly friends. The entire passage pulses with deep emotion. Paul wants all of his later … Continue reading –>

Sunday: The Judean Example (1 Thess 2:13-16)

Sabbath School Net Posted on August 4, 2012 by SSNET StaffMay 27, 2015avatar

First Thessalonians 2:13-16 reads on the surface like a digression from the previous themes of pleasing God and caring for the new believers (1 Thess. 2:1-12). But verse 13 continues the theme of how the Thessalonians responded to the apostles and the gospel that they brought to Thessalonica. With verse 14, Paul returns to the … Continue reading –>
