This Lord’s Day, we continue observing the main character in the Old Testament book bearing his name – JOB. In looking at the character of this godly man and now, his possessions and how he handled them, we learn the necessary spiritual foundations necessary if we are to suffer will for the glory of God.

This Lord’s Day evening, Pastor Jim returns to his sermon series in 1 Corinthians 13 – the life of love – looking at the negative trait of love that is not resentful. We will look at the destructed nature of what a resentful heart truly is – unforgiving and gripped in bitterness.
This Lord’s Day, we meet the main character in the Old Testament book bearing his name – JOB. Who Job was in his relationships with the world and his God models for us the firm foundation necessary in a life that builds a solid theology of suffering. His character is what enables God’s children to endure, even spiritually prosper, in those difficult seasons of affliction and pain God calls us to.
This Lord’s Day, we begin a journey through the oldest book in the Bible; the Old Testament book of Job. We will be confronted with the issues of suffering – responses to suffering, Satan and suffering, and ultimately learn a lot about ourselves and our sovereign God in suffering
We conclude our journey through this wonderful New Testament letter showing us what a church is to be like in living out first love for the Lord Jesus. The Apostle Paul brings his letter to a close with a beautiful prayer pointing believers to the glorious work of God in the lives of His people from eternity past to glorification in heaven.
Christianity is relational. From the Garden of Eden before the fall, through the fall, after the fall and eternity, we were created for relationship with God and one another. Through the Gospel, relationships are redeemed. The church at Thessalonica is a model of what Gospel-produced relationships are to be with other believers and the Lord. This Lord’s Day we continue with marks of spiritual maturity in one’s relationship with the Lord – walking in the Holy Spirit by obedience to His Word.
