We learn here how Paul blessed the Thessalonians for their faithfulness and their concern for each other. He also requested their prayers for him as he would against much opposition go on to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He also then as we should today beware of the people we allow into our lives; people that make it obvious that they don’t reverence and acknowledge God. When people in our lives begin to follow the rudiments of the world by turning away from the gospel instructions for living as children of God release those people from our lives and hold onto the teachings of Jesus Christ that on the day Jesus stands in the clouds and call the righteous unto him we will be chosen. Be mindful of who you allow in your life.

All that have received the love of God by baptism of the Holy Ghost should be mindful of what we hear and from whom we hear it. Living in obedience to the gospel of Jesus Christ is encouraged and to avoid contrary teachings to the gospel. Praying to God in the name Jesus, living in obedience to scripture, and doing good to all men, but especially to them of the household of faith is what pleases God.

We should learn how we are admonished from experience how to treat others; whether believers or not. Persons that have supervision over others should be very mindful of the wisdom of Jesus Christ; as you would that others do unto you do ye also unto them. When we remain faithful in prayer and demonstration of the gospel of Jesus Christ we please God and his favor will envelope us.

The apostle cautions the Philippians against judaizing false teachers, and renounces his own former privileges. Using the wisdom demonstrated by Paul we today should be cautious when others try to get us to turn away from the truth God has allowed us to understand when they won’t repent and let God save them. Paul’s earnest desire to be found in Christ; also his pressing on toward perfection is what the church of Jesus Christ is for. To teach and and explain that the church teaches what Jesus said, seek ye first the kingdom of God and the things shall be added and not pursue the carnal above the spiritual and as he recommends his own example to other believers so should we.

All Christians are admonished to respect everyone in every facet of life and should put on spiritual armour against the enemies of their souls. The fight we fight is not against man. It is a spiritual war that requires spiritual battle armor, described here in scripture. Notice that the armor covers the front of the body; because sanctified, regenerated believers don’t turn and run in battle. For those that give up and turn back to what brought them out of will have no protection against the wiles and fiery darts of the enemy. This is how the great falling away is taking place.

The Apostle Paul in this letter to the church of our Lord, Jesus Christ in Galatia sought to admonish them to be reminded of how God can change a person for the better. Paul reminds the people of how God changed him; in spite of all the opposition he had against the promotion of Christianity. When God decided to reveal His son in him Paul is saying is when the real change in thinking and understanding took place in him. It still happens today to as many as will see the Lord in sincerity and in truth.

Here we are blessed to have the wisdom of God as to how we are to conduct ourselves amongst non-believers demonstrating the personality of God. We are not to boast ourselves and be glory seekers. We are not to compare ourselves one with another but perform the holy and righteous commands of God; as did Jesus Christ, followed by his hand picked apostles, including this apostle, Paul. All glory belongs to God.

Here we should learn the wisdom from God through the church of the Lord Jesus Christ by Apostle Paul, of what we should be reminded of every day. That is, as God raised Jesus from the dead, so also all that shall receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost shall be raised by God and shall be in eternity with our Risen Lord and our God that chose us.

We are admonished by the apostle and reminded that we cannot please God living contrary to his instructions. But, if we live by his word, we know and have assurance by the in dwelling of the Christ of God; that in that great day when Jesus shall descend in the clouds with the trump of God, coming to get the righteous ones of God, we will be able to go back with him.

This is a demonstration of how, “If God be for you he is more than the whole world against you”. “Since God is for you, who can be against you”. As God, according to Paul’s many testimonies, demonstrated his presence by delivering Paul out of them all; until God’s determination that Paul had successfully completed his course and had kept the faith, even so now God is with us; if we trust him.

This is Jesus, praying to the father on behalf of the original disciples that were made Apostles. He pray to the father to keep the apostles encouraged as they will go out to minister, against great opposition and not to give up when confronted with adversity. He told the father that the words that the He gave Him He gave them to his disciples, and they received them. Also that He sent them out as sheep in the midst of wolves. He also prayed to the father, for those that would receive the word from those apostles and from generation to generation. He prayed for us.

God reaches out to everyone with his love, his word, and his desire for their salvation. However, Jesus makes the point here that more people live their lives enjoying and giving heed to the secular pleasures of this world, that hinders; than those that give diligent heed to God’s promises, his mercy, his grace, his compassion, and his kindness; from whence comes salvation. Many hear God’s plan of salvation but don’t live so.

This passage the scriptures helps us to understand that the Lord Jesus was teaching his disciples to understand what they hear, and from whom they hear it. We have the gospel of Jesus Christ to lead us, direct us, to correct us and reprove us. Nevertheless, he further went on to say to them that following the tradition of men almost always that follow the tradition of men almost always brings on a certainty to fail, and not be able to do what God has charged us to do as His chosen. Those who refuse to obey the gospel of Jesus Christ and merely honor the Lord with their lips and not with their hearts will end up in the lake of fire.

God gave the Levites instructions to teach the people, His laws and His judgments, and His statutes. But God was angry then and also now because spiritual leaders were not and are not doing their assignments appropriately, which provokes God to anger which causes Him to release His judgments, His fury, His anger, and His wrath in the land. There must be true repentance, and genuine return to God, to live by His instructions.

As It was then and is now, Satan does not rest from trying to oppress and distress the church, the professed people of God, from walking according to the desire of God. Even now, as it was then the church was in a great struggle when it came to and now comes to obedience. Satan will rest some times from oppressing God’s people further, because they don’t seek God in sincerity. Nevertheless, once more and again God prepares to rescue and forgive his people from their sins.

Consistency is one of the greatest attributes of God. He always has warned before he sending destruction and devastation. Destruction and devastation would only only visit the people of God after constant disrespect and and disobedience to him. He did then and still now has proven that when the people that he blessed and prospered exercise repentance and obedience to the word and will of God he will turn away his wrath and indignation and bring restoration and restitution to his people.

What we should learn from this message is that we should be patient and wait to understand our leading from the Lord. Then do what he tells us. That wisdom is in the scriptures. He lets us know here that even though the enemy may for a time ride over us and take advantage of us; the day will come that the Lord will deliver us by exacting his judgment and indignation against the enemy of his people. Deliverance is in Zion, the church of our risen Lord; Jesus the Christ of God.

Again here we see the agape’ love of God in action. Even though God punishes wrong, even with his people, but when the adversary rises up against them to suppress them even more, God will, when He decides, come to their rescue. Satan is relentless at manipulating God’s people. He uses people against people. But don’t worry you righteous ones, God is on the move; be patient and see his deliverance. The willing, the humble, the obedient, shall eat the good of the land and God will withhold no good thing from His beloved.
