1 Thessalonians 4:1-18
He exhorts them to go forward in all manner of godliness
1 Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more.
2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.
3 For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:
4 That every one of you should know how to possess his vessel in sanctification and honour;
5 Not in the lust of concupiscence, even as the Gentiles which know not God:
to live holily and justly
6 That no man go beyond and defraud his brother in any matter: because that the Lord is the avenger of all such, as we also have forewarned you and testified.
7 For God hath not called us unto uncleanness, but unto holiness.
8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us his holy Spirit.
to love one another
9 But as touching brotherly love ye need not that I write unto you: for ye yourselves are taught of God to love one another.
10 And indeed ye do it toward all the brethren which are in all Macedonia: but we beseech you, brethren, that ye increase more and more;
and quietly to follow their own business
11 And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;
12 That ye may walk honestly toward them that are without, and that ye may have lack of nothing.
and last of all, to sorrow moderately for the dead
13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
And unto this last exhortation is annexed a brief description of the resurrection, and second coming of Christ to judgment
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
Be blessed

Welcome
WELCOME and Peace to all who enter peaceably!
Welcome to our new members, I'm sorry that I haven't taken the time to welcome each of you individually but we're glad you're here.
I haven't walked away from the group. I'm not giving up the group. My sister and I have been working hard and pretty much non-stop since May 2018. I am working on making more time so that I can pick up my art as well as pick up on our teachings. Please be patient with us and feel free to speak. We don't bite! We would love to hear and share your testimonies, your words of encouragement, your words of correction and anything that God lays on your heart to share.

Quick Notes
Hello everyone,
I would like to start off by saying I am sorry! I have dropped the ball on keeping this group updated due to life picking up but I made a commitment to spread the Word so I will try to do better.
Secondly, I would just like to remind you all that life and death is in your own mouth. No matter what a situation is looking like, find the good. If you are negative, you will maintain a negative mentality- even when God is blessing you, you would find something to complain about. Let's be thankful and positive this year!
Let's also remember that we are serving the living God and He is our protector. Use wisdom in what you do and
Gifts
Jesus has given us all gifts to use and glorify him with.Jesus loves you no matter what you've done or who you are.
