    NOW COMFORT AND EDIFY ONE ANOTHER WITH THIS 3



    “Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.”

    1 Thessalonians 5:11 (KJV)



    Beloved, the news of the coming of Jesus our Lord must be your comfort (encouragement, urge, and a summon to remain unwavering in faith).

    As I said in the previous episode, the right testimony and understanding of the blessedness of the coming of our Lord Jesus comforts and edifies the believer.

    This comfort and edification are necessary because it strengthen the faith of the believer.

    To edify simply means to build up. It’s from the Greek word “oikodomeō”, a combination of two Greek words, “oíkos” (“a house”) and “domeō” (“to build”). The word literally means “to build a house, a home or an edifice”

    Therefore, to edify one another is to build up one another. To edify one another is to embolden one another by helping them to stand strongly and be sturdy. 

    The glorious news of our Lord Jesus’ death, burial, resurrection, ascension, and return should strengthen, inspire, encourage, urge, embolden, and enlarge the faith of every believer.

    The first-century Church found joy in the Lord Jesus. They were often instructed to rejoice in the Lord.

    Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice (Philippians 4:4).

    They looked forward to His coming with great hope.

    “…we look forward with hope to that wonderful day when the glory of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, will be revealed.” Titus 2:13 (NLT)

    They knew that the coming and appearing of the Lord Jesus shall also be for his glorification.

    This has to be your confidence and hope as well.

    “Look with wonder at the depth of the Father’s marvelous love that he has lavished on us! He has called us and made us his very own beloved children. The reason the world doesn’t recognize who we are is that they didn’t recognize him. Beloved, we are God’s children right now; however, it is not yet apparent what we will become. But we do know that when it is finally made visible, we will be just like him, for we will see him as he truly is. And all who focus their hope on him will always be purifying themselves, just as Jesus is pure“. 1 John 3:1-3 (TPT)

    If only you shall behold His coming, you shall be urged to even live out His life now with joy.

    The testimony of the coming of Jesus must not shrink your heart in fear

    The testimony of His return must enlarge your heart and build you up in faith. 

    You must become deeply rooted and well built in boldness by this truth.

    Hallelujah!

    NOW COMFORT AND EDIFY ONE ANOTHER WITH THIS 2



    “Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.” 

    1 Thessalonians 5:11 (KJV)



    The news of the coming of Jesus has always been news of encouragement and comfort to the Church.

    In this same first epistle to the Thessalonians, Paul the apostle used the news of the coming of Jesus as comfort to those whose loved ones had fallen asleep (or died in Christ).

    Those who die without Christ have no hope. And this is not the same with the believers. For those who fall asleep in Christ have hope. Therefore, as believers, we don’t become sorrowful as the people are without hope. We comfort one another with this glorious news of the coming of Jesus. (See 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18).

    The ultimate good news of the coming of Jesus is that all believers shall be together with the Lord in a more palpable and experiential way.

    The continuous reminder of the coming of the Lord must be comfort to the believers, knowing that we have far greater moments of glorious manifestations of the divine life ahead.

    The coming of our Lord is the news that we shall live forever, both those who are alive and those who are asleep in the Lord.

    The right testimony and understanding of the blessedness of the coming of our Lord Jesus comforts and edifies the believer.

    This comfort and edification are necessary because they strengthen the faith of the believer.

    More than ever, believers in today’s world need to have clarity of the testimony of the coming of Jesus. Amidst the increase in deception, spiritual, physical, and psychological attacks against the faith, believers must set their hope not only in the news of the resurrection of Jesus. Believers must be comforted that, as we were made alive and raised together with Christ, even so shall we live together with Him in all eternity.

    This is our hope!

    And this is our comfort.

    In 1 Thessalonians 5, you will find two Greek words translated as comfort.

    – “Parakaleō”
    and
    – “Paramutheomai”

    In verse 11, Paul the apostle chose the Greek word “Parakaleō”.
    Parakaleō (translated as comfort) means more than to soothe.

    It’s made up of two words, “Kaleō” (to call) and “Para” (side of or alongside).
    The word literally means to call alongside or to call or summon a person to your side.

    The meanings of “parakaleo” include to entreat, to appeal to, to summon, to comfort, to exhort, or to encourage. It means to urge someone to take an action. At the root of this word, conveys the idea of enabling a person to meet some difficult situation with gallantry and confidence.

    When Paul the apostle chose this word, in 1 Thessalonians 5:11, he didn’t mean to say as believers, we should soothe one another on the grounds of what the Lord has accomplished.

    He was charging the believers to urge one another to act according to the glorious hope of what our Lord Jesus has accomplished and the glorious news of the great day of His coming.

    We are to march on through the storms of this world with great confidence of hope. The same word translated as comfort was also translated as “beseech” in Romans 12:1 (King James Version).

    Which means to comfort one another is also to beseech one another to take a strong stand in the hope of the coming of our Lord Jesus.

    The knowledge of the coming of our Lord Jesus supplies an impenetrable strength as that of a great army to a believer.

    These things we have been discussing make you unwavering in your journey of faith. Set your heart on them.

    Jesus is coming again, and be comforted (urged) as you continuously shine forth the light of the glory of our Lord Jesus in your sphere.

    To believe and walk with the Lord is not an empty fable.

    To believe and give attention to fulfill the ministry the Lord has entrusted to you is not shadow boxing. This is the manifestation of your destiny; remain resolute.

    Hallelujah!

    NOW COMFORT AND EDIFY ONE ANOTHER WITH THIS 1



    “Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.” 

    1 Thessalonians 5:11 (KJV)



    The Church, from her inception, has suffered hostility, threats, political persecution, philosophical persecution, and both mental and physical torture.

    All these are attempts to crush and destroy the mission of the Church.

    Take note:
    The Church is the aggregation of all the saints in Christ.
    Therefore, don’t think of the Church as an institution separated from you. You are part of the very constitution of the Church. The Church is the body of Christ, the herald of God’s eternal purpose. The city is set on the hill, giving hope to a hopeless world. The Church is the torch of God in a world overwhelmed by gross darkness. It is the divine salt pack that preserves and gives taste to the earth.

    This is why the adversary has always seen the Church as a threat.
    There have been attempts to destroy the Church through heretical and deceptive doctrines.

    Matters that are to bring hope to the Church were diluted with error. And it’s with the intention to corrupt the hope of the saints and produce fear in their hearts.

    Over the centuries, the news of Jesus’s coming has been seen as news of doom for all mankind. 

    However, the coming of Jesus is a day of hope, joy, and the full manifestation of glory for those in Christ.

    If you have followed these episodes on 1 Thessalonians 5, you should be established in this certainty: the believer is not appointed for wrath but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus, who died for us.

    Paul the apostle addressed the matter of the coming of our Lord Jesus to comfort the hearts of the saints.

    No matter how the people of the world will mock, persecute,  or attack the Church, we must be comforted with the reality that our Lord cometh.

    Take a look at verse 11 of 1 Thessalonians 5, again:

    “Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.”

    The sentence begins with “Wherefore”, the Greek word is “dio”, which simply means, “therefore”, or for which cause or consequently.

    The word “dio” or “Wherefore” as used in the verse is a logical connector. It introduces an explanation that emphasizes the logical outcome or necessity of an action or belief.

    Paul the apostle used “wherefore” in the verse to draw an inference from what he had previously stated.

    This explains that as believers we are to comfort and edify one another on the grounds of this truth that:
    – God has not appointed us to wrath.
    – He has appointed us to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus, who died for us.
    – And that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with the Lord Jesus.

     No believer is to threaten another believer with the coming of Jesus. 

    Instead, we are instructed through the epistles to comfort one another with the news of the coming of Jesus.

    Hallelujah!

    Beloved, don’t choose fear, anxiety, doubts and worry. Let the peace of God have its full dominance in your heart. To engage and supply the PERFECT PEACE of Christ, you have to PRAY and make SUPPLICATION with THANKSGIVING amid every storm. Selah!

    THE HOPE OF SALVATION FROM THE COMING DESTRUCTION



    “For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus” 

    1 Thessalonians 5:9 (KJV)



    It is not the dream of the Lord that all men will perish. The Lord rather wants all men to be saved (1 Timothy 2:4). This is why He came to die for the sins of men, so that He will make His salvation available for all men.

    All those who believe in the Lord Jesus have received eternal salvation which cannot be lost. 

    To be saved is also to be delivered by the Lord from eternal condemnation or perdition (John 3:16).

    However, those who remain in darkness are those who reject the Lord and, through their unbelief, expose themselves to the wrath of condemnation and destruction.

    The coming of the Lord saves us (who are already saved in Him) from the slavery of corruption. We looked into this in the previous episode.

    Though the coming of the Lord brings us salvation from the slavery of corruption, in 1 Thessalonians 5, Paul the apostle focuses mainly on the Salvation from the coming destruction.

    The verse 3 of 1 Thessalonians 5, clearly stated that those who are in darkness shall experience sudden destruction.

    The coming of the Lord will definitely not be a time of comfort for those in darkness. It’s a time when the judgment of condemnation becomes a practical experience for them.  

    This coming destruction is God’s judgment of this rebellious world. God’s interest is not really to judge the world or to judge men. That is why I began this discussion by stating expressly that God wants every man to be saved. God’s interest is to judge rebellion.

    As part of God’s desire not to judge men, He compels many believers to go out there into all the world to teach and persuade men with the gospel of our Lord and Savior Jesus.

    The rebellion God wants to destroy is the devil and His cohorts. The coming of the Lord is also part of God’s program and appointed time to fully destroy the devil. He destroys His works through His death and resurrection. But now God wants to ultimately bring evil to its end.

    To walk in unbelief is to take the sides of the adversary. Why would you want to be on the losing side?

    Why won’t you be part of those who are fighting for the interest of God?

    Satan takes delight in destroying the world. He doesn’t want to go down alone. No one should take the side of Satan.

    All those who are on God’s side shall experience salvation also from the coming destruction.

    Beloved, refuse to be deceived by the adversary. His interest is your destruction and the destruction of the world. God’s desire is your experience of salvation from the coming destruction.

    He has not appointed you to wrath but to the gaining of Salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for you.

    If you are in Christ, you are not designed to be the object of God’s displeasure. The Salvation of the Lord is your stronghold.

    Remain watchful and sober as you behold the coming of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.

    THE HOPE OF SALVATION FROM THE SLAVERY OF CORRUPTION



    “For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus”  

    1 Thessalonians 5:9 (KJV)



     
    Faith, love, and hope are the three basic structures of the Newness of life in Christ. As I have previously discussed, these three items, or basic structures, are armors to protect our hearts and thoughts.
     
    As the coming of the Lord draws near, we are to remain watchful as soldiers at war and be sober even as we put on the three basic structures of the Newness of life as our armor and safeguard, amidst the toxic projectiles of the world.

    As people of the day and of the light we are instructed to live this way to have a practical experience of the Lord’s intentions at His coming.

    Paul the apostle, doesn’t want the believers to assume that, because they are in the light they can live according to their own terms. The people who are of darkness don’t know what to do to be ready for the enjoyment of the Lord’s coming.
     
    The comfort of being in the light is to understand what Christ has accomplished for you and to have the instructions which will safeguard your heart and thoughts from the deception of this world, as you behold the Lord’s coming.
     
    From the earlier verses of 1 Thessalonians 5, it is clearly stated that those who are in darkness shall experience sudden destruction. (Verse 3).
     
    The coming of the Lord will definitely not be a time of comfort for those in darkness. It’s a time when the judgment of condemnation becomes a practical experience for them. It is not the dream of the Lord that all men will perish. 
     
    The Lord rather wants all men to be saved. However, those who remain in darkness are those who reject the Lord and expose themselves to the wrath of condemnation and destruction by their unbelief.
     
    All those who believe in the Lord Jesus have received eternal salvation which cannot be lost. This salvation is the deliverance of the Lord from eternal condemnation or perdition (John 3:16). And we received this Salvation through the Lord’s death and resurrection.

    The gospel preached by the apostles of our Lord Jesus was emphatic and loud on the reality that once we are saved by the Lord Jesus, we have been forever saved for eternity and shall never perish or be condemned.

    Therefore, through Christ’s finished work in His death, and resurrection we have obtained a glorious salvation, which is eternally secured by His faithfulness.
     
    Since we have obtained this Salvation in Christ, why are we appointed to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ? (as you read again from the opening verse above)
     
    The coming of the Lord saves us (who are already saved in Him) from the coming destruction and the slavery of corruption.
     
    What is the slavery of corruption?
     
    When God completed His work in creation, everything was good. Nothing was corrupted.
     
    “God saw everything that He had made, and behold, it was very good and He validated it completely. And there was evening and there was morning, a sixth day.” Genesis 1:31 (Amplified Bible)
     
    However, corruption crept into the world through the sin of unbelief. Even as of the days of Adam, every deposit of God into man began to decay (or experience oldness), even in the natural creation, including the human body. Through the sin of unbelief, man subjected all that God has entrusted to him to corruption.
     
    This is how the principle or second law of thermodynamics came into being. The law of thermodynamics states that “when energy is being transformed from one state to another, some of it is turned into heat energy which cannot be converted back into useful form.”
     
    See this:
     
    “And he called him Lord, saying, “Lord, you formed the earth in the beginning and with your own hands you crafted the cosmos. They will both one day disappear, but you will remain forever! They will all fade like a worn-out garment, And they will be changed like clothes, and you will fold them up and put them away. But you are ‘I AM.’ You never change, years without end!” Hebrews 1:10-12 (TPT).
     
    Apostle Paul explains this further in his epistle to the Romans:
     
    “The entire universe is standing on tiptoe, yearning to see the unveiling of God’s glorious sons and daughters! For against its will,l the universe itself has had to endure the empty futility resulting from the consequences of human sin. But now, with eager expectation, all creation longs for freedom from its slavery to decay and to experience with us the wonderful freedom coming to God’s children. To this day we are aware of the universal agony and groaning of creation, as if it were in the contractions of labor for childbirth. And it’s not just creation. We who have already experienced the firstfruits of the Spirit also inwardly groan as we passionately long to experience our full status as God’s sons and daughters—including our physical bodies being transformed.  For this is the hope of our salvation.
    But hope means that we must trust and wait for what is still unseen. For why would we need to hope for something we already have? So because our hope is set on what is yet to be seen, we patiently keep on waiting for its fulfillment.” Romans 8:19-25 (TPT)
     
    Oh, glory to God.
     
    We have this hope that at the coming of the Lord Jesus, the glory of our sonship shall fully manifest. In that, just as through the sin of unbelief, creation and the entire universe were subjected to vanity and corruption, creation shall be freed from the slavery of corruption at the coming of our Lord Jesus.
     
    It is not only the stars, the moon, the plants, and all creation that are groaning together. Even the saved ones groan that we shall experience the glorious transfiguration in our natural bodies.

    Though there is anxiety in creation, those who have received eternal salvation, have a living hope in our Lord Jesus, knowing that at His coming we shall be changed.

    Beloved, as we are eternally saved through our faith in the finished work of our Lord Jesus, we also look forward to obtaining a glorious salvation of our physical body completely from every corruption, at the coming of our Lord Jesus.

    THE BREASTPLATE OF FAITH AND LOVE 2 –

    THE BELIEVER’S THREEFOLD CORD ARMOR 3



    “But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.”

    1 Thessalonians 5:8 (KJV)



    The deceptive strategy of the devil is to weaken the confidence of your heart towards the Lord’s coming.

    He has never changed his strategy, because that is his greatest and most effective weapon.

    However, God has given us more abounding gears for our defense.

    Yours is to put them on.

    God has given you faith and love (which produces His righteousness) as breastplate. Some believers are waiting for God to dress them up with this defensive armor.

    As God has made provision for this armor, your responsibility is only to put them on.

    Clearly, the misconceived thoughts of the Lord’s coming may create anxiety or fear. Paul the apostle didn’t want the saints to live in fear. He didn’t want their heart to be troubled. This is why he admonished them to remain sober and to put on the breastplate of faith and love.

    To put on the breastplate of faith and love is to walk in the confidence of God’s grace and love towards you.

    Jesus before His death and ascension, spoke these words to His disciples:

    “Do not let your heart be troubled (afraid, cowardly). Believe [confidently] in God and trust in Him, [have faith, hold on to it, rely on it, keep going and] believe also in Me.” John 14:1 (Amplified Bible)

    The solution to a troubled heart or fear is faith in the Lord.

    Instead of being worried or surrendering to your fear of the times, live in the confidence of Jesus’ love towards you.

    You came to Christ and received His righteousness by faith in Him. You continue to walk in the consciousness of faith by faith and love towards God. Your love towards God is also a result of the richness of His love towards you.

    “In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation [that is, the atoning sacrifice, and the satisfying offering] for our sins [fulfilling God’s requirement for justice against sin and placating His wrath].” 1 John 4:10 (Amplified Bible)

    Your life in Christ should be lived according to the supply of God to you and not according to your self-engineered efforts.

    The daily happenings around you are designed to engender anxiety in your heart. However, you become insulated when faith and love abound in your heart.

    The love of God in your heart is the greatest force that protects you and resists every projectile of the adversary.

    Don’t live by what you feel. Live a life of faith towards God and according to the expression of His love.

    Hallelujah!
