THE WORD OF GOD

Text: 1 Thessalonians 2

DEEP COMMITMENT TO PREACH THE WORD OF GOD

The Apostle Paul was deeply committed to preach the Word of God! He faithfully proclaimed the Gospel that had been entrusted to him. 

Paul ministered in Thessalonica and founded another church there. The brethren in Thessalonica were enamoured of the Word of God!

13 For this reason we also thank God without ceasing, because when you received the word of God which you heard from us, you welcomed it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which also effectively works in you who believe. 

14 For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God which are in Judea in Christ Jesus. For you also suffered the same things from your own countrymen, just as they did from the Judeans.    1 Thessalonians 2:13-14
