Fusion: week of 7/2

FAMILY THEME: WALKING IN GODLINESS

1 Thessalonians 4:1-12

The way we handle ourselves in relationships with others shows

the world where we stand in our relationship with God.

1.  Delight God With Your Body

     (1 Thessalonians 4:1-8)

     Paul urged the Thessalonians to follow God's will in how

     they used their bodies so they could live up to the holy

     calling of God.

 
2.  Delight God With Your Relationships

     (1 Thessalonians 4:9-10)

     The Thessalonians were doing a good job loving each other,

     but Paul encouraged them to continue and increase their 

     love for all Christian brothers and sisters.

 
3.  Delight God With Your Productivity

     (1 Thessalonians 4:11-12)

     A life that is pleasing to God is also a productive and 

     independent life.
