Sermon Overview
Paul’s grateful prayer for the Thessalonians continues. Having expressed the circumstances and considerations of prayer, Paul focuses now on the last of the final quality of prayer that compels thankfulness, its causation. In today’s lesson, we will look at two out of three causes for prayer: Sovereign Election and Scripture’s Power.
- Prayerful Circumstances (1:2a)
- Prayerful Considerations (1:2b-3)
- Work of Faith
- Labor of Love
- Steadfastness of Hope
- Prayerful Causation (1:4-10)
- Sovereign Election (1:4)
- Scripture’s Power (1:5)
- Salvation’s Evidence (1:6-10)
