The Lord's message rang out from you not only in Macedonia and Achaia — your faith in God has become known everywhere - 1 Thessalonians 1:8
What kind of reputation does your church have? What is your dream for the congregation you attend? So many of us have such short-sighted goals for our churches. The church at Thessalonica was only a few months old and its reputation for sharing their faith had become known all over the Roman Empire. Now that's the kind of reputation I want the congregation I work with to have! How about you?
Facts about Repentance
It is God’s Command – Acts 17:30
Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent,
God waits in for repentance – 2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance.
Circumcision’s Significance
Genesis 7:10
And it came to pass after seven days that the waters of the flood were on the earth.
Zeal
The zeal of the Lord – 2 Kings 19:31
For out of Jerusalem shall go a remnant,
And those who escape from Mount Zion.
The zeal of the Lord of hosts will do this.’
Zeal has consumed me – Psalm 119:139
My zeal has consumed me,
Because my enemies have forgotten Your words.
He shall stir up His zeal – Isaiah 42:13
The Lord shall go forth like a mighty man;
He shall stir up His zeal like a man of war.
He shall cry out, yes, shout aloud;
He shall prevail against His enemies.
