Sermon Outline

A WALK THAT PLEASES GOD

1 Thessalonians 4:1-8


The Christian life can be compared to a walk – this is one of Paul’s favorite word pictures.

  • Ephesians 4:1, 4:17; 5:2, 5:8, 2 Corinthians 5:7


We must be sure to “walk in the light” for the enemy has put traps and detours in our paths to trip us.


Here are several ways that we should walk as we seek to please the Lord.


Continue to make spiritual progress (v.1)






Avoid succumbing to the culture of the day (vv.2-7)






Consider an eternal principle (v.8)
