The Study in Thessalonians (02/08 - 15th

We have had handouts and hope that each of you is filling those in each week. A great review and preparation for the next week. This past Sunday we contrasted the Day of the Lord and the Rapture. We should rejoice to know that we - as born agains - will be Raptured when the Lord returns in the air for His Bride!!! The Thessalonians believed the wrong person and mistook that they were living in the Tribulation. They neglected the important things and Paul wrote to them in the second letter to encourage and to inform them of truths they were overlooking. Paul prayed for them just as we should be praying for one another.

11:00 A.M. FBCA LOCATION: A16
…an invitation for you!
Sunday School is one of those wonderful opportunities that the local church offers to sit down with others and listen to the Word of God being presented. Praise the Lord, He uses all kinds of personalities and gifts to share His Truth. In small group, you have the freedom to speak up and ask questions, give the teacher feedback and at the same time get to know other people. Even with the busy world of activity, work and other responsibilities, we need friends and fellowship!

Bernadine teaches a ladies class in Room B101 (That’s Bldg. B – behind the Chapel building), at 8:00 A.M. Yep, that’s early, but you may find it is well worth it. Sleeping in is an idea that we invite easily with the hectic lives we all live. Yet, I have found that my investment in the lives of other women causes me to rise early on Sunday…leave my house in Atlanta at 7:20.

Wes and Bernadine attend the 9:30 worship service and then co-teach at 11:00 in A161. Doing double duty and getting to church so early is not sacrificial…it is rewarding, a blessing, a calling, and fulfills a desire to share these sunset years with others. (Actually, Wes is teaching a special class for the next 11 weeks…dealing with TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS). Our assistant teacher, Jeff LeBlanc will be teaming with me while Wes is away.

We would welcome our meeting as a gift! Although you do not know us, we would love to share our life with you through the friendship we can form through small group for Ladies or the class that Wes and I co-teach!

Blessings, Bernadine and Wes

Lessons:
The Blog is long with many lesson notes, but you can scroll through quickly and pick your areas of interest...click on OLDER POSTS to view the second page.

These lesson notes could be very helpful if you consider that you, too, will disciple others: "And the [instructions] which you have heard from me, along with many witnesses, transmit and entrust (as a deposit) to reliable and faithful men who will be competent and qualified to teach others also." II Tim. 2:2
The notes print out nicely and would make a helpful, handy notebook for future reference.
