GAINING PERSPECTIVE
1 Thessalonians 2:1-2

​We all have problems and experienced setbacks. Depending on our perspective, we either get depressed or have hope, get bitter or get on rejoicing. The same difficulty solicits two different responses subject to how we look at the problem on hand. In his ministry, the Apostle Paul has his fair of trials, problems, and tribulations.

In Thessalonians 2:1-2, he was narrating his experience in planting churches in the region of Macedonia (Acts 16-17). In acting on the vision he received, he right away encountered some series unimaginable testing and persecution. Humanly speaking, we can say his ministry was a total failure… a waste of his time and effort. But Paul confidently declared that his ministry was “not a failure”. Why so? Because he has a clear perspective. He has a clear grasp of “capital R-Reality”. He did not dwell on his “small r-reality”. Paul pointed out that:
1. Suffering does not spell failure
2. Opposition does not mean defeat
3. Problems does not denote it’s the end

There are some key features that we see in Paul’s perspective in ministry.
1. He knows the distinction between “entitlement” vs. “grace”
2. He knows the definition of real “success” vs. “failure”
3. He knows that all that is done for the Lord is never “in vain” (1 Cor. 15:58)

Hence, Paul is more resolved than ever despite the difficult challenges he experienced ad continue to experience. He sees clearly the “what is” from “what appears to be”. He thus continues to press on and work even harder.

He did not simple “look at”, he knows how to “look through”. And that is what we mean by perspective.

SIGNS OF A CHURCH ALIVE
1 Thessalonians 1:6-8

All of us are influencing and are being influenced, whether we know it or not, whether we like it or not. This is the reality of our human existence. Reality tells us that we consciously or unconsciously follow people’s example, whether good or bad. Reality also tells us that other people emulate us, for better or for worse. A crucial question we need to ask is: “who is my model?” And “what are we modeling?”

When the Thessalonians Christians came to faith in Christ, they have chosen to emulate the example of the apostles and the Lord. They opted to mimic Christ and the missionary team by enduring persecution joyfully, and by proclaiming the Gospel far and wide. Because they were determined to follow such positive examples, they, in turn became positive examples (models) themselves.

​A church that is alive, as we have learned in the preceding passage (vv. 2-5), always exhibits “vitality”. Today, we learned that a church alive always have a good model (influence) to follow, in turn, it becomes a positive model (influence) that others follow.

​Influence, like a sweet perfume, cannot be contained.

CHURCH ALIVE: VITALTY
1 Thessalonians 1:2-3

​If we want to know whether a person is alive or not, we often would look at the vital signs, such as: pulse/heartbeat, breathing, movement, and so on. The same goes with finding out whether a local church is alive or not. We can know a church is alive, diseased, or dead based on the vital signs it shows.

​The Thessalonian church proves to be a “church alive” through the vital signs it exhibited. Foremost is its vitality. It is characterized by its growth in faith, hope, and love. Obviously, this triad of qualities are invisible to the human eye. Yet they are made visible by the actions a person exhibits particularly in the context of his/her relationships. For the Thessalonian church, their faith is illustrated by their works, their love is attested by their labor, and their hope is vividly seen in their endurance.

​Faith, hope, and love are not some static virtues, or some abstract qualities. They are very much evident in what we do and how we relate to people, as well as how we respond in our contexts. They can be seen. They really do

“IN” or “OUT”
1 Thessalonians 1:1

​1 Thessalonians is one of the earliest, if not the earliest letter of Paul. In this letter, he specifies that the church is “in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ”. The preposition “in” is very essential for the church. Unless it is “in”, it’s not a church. It’s just a mere organization, or a club. The church is one that has a vital relationship with Jesus Christ, as well as with the Father. Like the branches is connected with the Vine, where it is in Him and He in them (John 15). Here we see the distinction of mere “church-goers” and real Christians.

​Moreover, the Church is an organism that is experiencing “grace” and “peace” because of its linkage with Christ. It continues to grow and prosper due to God’s provision of His “grace” and its outcome, which is “peace”.

​Grace (‘charis”) is defined as the “unsought and unbought” saving activity of God extended to the redeemed through Christ. It is unsought because the saving initiative is with God alone. It is unbought because it is free. Human merits are not involved. God’s grace is necessary for our:
1. Salvation
2. Power for Christian living
3. Gifts and the strength/energy to serve

Grace is the totality of the blessings which comes from God through Christ. It is the first and last word for any church that belongs to God. The Bible always emphasizes the supremacy of grace, in distinction from all other religions that stresses on works. It is the central and distinctive message of the Gospel (Eph. 2:8-9).

Peace (“eirene”), on the other hand, is the direct result of the operation of God’s grace. It includes both personal (individual) and interpersonal (collective) well-being. When peace is present, there is wholeness, confidence, goodwill, harmony, and repose.

Grace and peace. They are the necessary ingredients for every healthy and consistent growth of every Christian and every church. These are God’s gracious provisions we cannot do without.

Grow in grace (2 Peter 3:18)…live in peace (Eph. 4:3).

THE UNLIKELY TRIO
1 Thessalonians 1:1

​God’s ways always amazes us. The missionary team that He used to plant churches during the missionary journey of Paul is composed of an unlikely trio. Under normal conditions, especially in a non-Christian setting, the three of them will not and most likely cannot work together. Let’s take a quick glance at these three:

1. Paul (“Little”): His former name was “Saul”, after the 1st king of Israel. He was from
the tribe of Benjamin, of an affluent family background. He grew up under a strict
Jewish environment, and was studying to be a Jewish lawyer/judge under the
famous rabbi named Gamaliel. He was a member of the sect of the Pharisees, and
he counted himself as the “Hebrew of Hebrews” (Phil. 3:5). Prior to his conversion,
he was the arch-enemy of the Church. He eventually became the most committed
apostle of the Gospel.

2. Silas (“Wood”): He was a Jew by birth, Roman by citizenship (Acts 16:37), and
Greek by culture as evidenced by his literary prowess. He was a gifted prophet
committed to the Gentile conversion. He was appointed to be the emissary of the
Jerusalem church to inform the Gentile churches concerning the decree formulated
by the Church. In the second missionary journey, he faithfully endured all kinds of
persecutions alongside Paul. He later associated himself with Peter and help wrote
the letter to the churches in Asia Minor. From what we know of him, he was very
much a “pro-Gentile” who champion their causes.

3. Timothy (“Honoring God”): He was a “mestizo” (2 Tim. 1:5) converted under the
ministry of Paul during his 1st missionary journey. When he joined the 2nd
missionary of Paul, Paul had him circumcised for the sake of expediency. He had his
handicaps as a member of the team. He was young (1 Tim. 4:12); he was also
timid and did not seemed to show much initiative.

​Paul and Silas were at the opposite ends of the spectrum in terms of their values. Paul and Timothy were totally different in their personality. Despite their individual differences, God joined them together as a team, and were mightily used by Him in a special way… all by His grace.

​Our church likewise is composed of unlikely people working together. But that is not what God is concerned about. He wants to use us in such a way that demonstrates His grace as we all commit to Him and to His cause. He then transforms our differences to a cohesive whole that would amaze the world!
