In WWII some English parents were separated from their children in the midst of conflcit. Imagine their distress and concern for the well being of their children! Dr. John reminds us that Paul felt the same way about the Thessalonians. Satan was at war with the church. Paul's confidence was in the sure victory of Jesus Christ.Remaining Steadfast in Distressing Times: We live in distressing times. There is a thin veil that has been placed over our eyes most of the time, causing us to forget that death and destruction are right around the corner. And then there are seasons when that veil is torn from our eyes, and suddenly, fear surrounds us. We are no longer blinded to the dangers of sickness, wars, death, and so many other things. On this side of eternity, our reality seems dreary. But even in difficult times, there is hope to be found! Join Dr. John Neufeld in this 15-message series called Remaining Steadfast in Distressing Times that will dive into 1 Thessalonians, as we study the early Church and learn what they did to remain steadfast through hardship.
