A Thief in the Night [A Study of 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11]

About this sermon

➡️ In this often terrifying world, the Second Coming of Jesus should be a constant source of encouragement to us. In this sermon, Pastor Robert J. Morgan discusses what 1 Thessalonians, chapter 5, tells us about the return of our Lord. It says He’s coming “like a thief in the night,” but we shouldn’t be afraid—we should be prepared and encouraged! Pastor Rob teaches about three fundamental traits we can develop through the Holy Spirit that will sustain us, even through the End Times: faith, hope, and love. Christ-followers have nothing to fear about Jesus’ return—it will be the most glorious moment of our lives. ❇ A message from Associate Pastor Robert J.
