Sermon Outline

THE WAY CHURCH OUGHT TO BE

1 Thessalonians 1:1-10


When a church does things the way they ought to be done, what does it look like? When a church is what it should be, what are the characteristics and qualities it must possess? We see that kind of church here in 1 Thessalonians.



Their Character (vv. 1-3)

● Faith that endures


● Love that excels


● Hope that expects




Their Calling (v. 4)





Their Conduct (vv. 5-8)





Their Confidence (VV. 9-10)





Conclusion:

This is the way church ought to be…. Possessing godly character that points to our genuine call to salvation….That leads to faithful conduct that places confidence in the one true living God!
