2 Thessalonians 3:6-18
  • We should pray for our brothers and sisters in Christ.
  • We should have peace with 1. God; 2. Church; 3. Fellow Believers'.
  • We should be a peacemaker by having peace within ourselves.
  • We should withdraw from a disorderly brothers and sisters. They could draw you away from God.
  • If a brother/sister who has a problem with sin then those who are spiritual can confront them..... lovingly
  • We should be reconciled by God and the church.
  • Matthew 18
  • We should 'note' them and withdraw from them.
  • No one should be proud of living in sin.
  • We shouldn't gossip!
  • vs. 11 - "For we hear that there are some who walk among you in a disorderly manner, not working at all, but are busybodies."
  • We should glorify God with our body.
  • 1 Corinthians 5
  • We should make ourselves an example.
  • Paul was a role model for following Christ.
  • We should try to be like Paul and be a role model in following Jesus Christ.
  • We should be willing to do whatever is necessary to serve God fully!
