1 Thessalonians 1:10

To the Church in Elk Rapia
Delivered from Wrath

10) And to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come.
King James Version (KJV)

Outline

We just finished singing "Til on that cross as Jesus died the wrath of God was satisfied, For Every sin on Him was laid here in the death of Christ i live". The wrath of God is something we don't want to discuss in this day because we think it make our God look bad. Many say that they cannot believe in a God of wrath and so we shrink from discussing it. Yet Paul told the church in Thessalonica that they were being delivered from the wrath to come. What should that mean to us today?

A) The Rejection of God's wrath

1. The God of the New Testament is the same as the God of the Old Testament

B) The Reasonableness of God's wrath

1. It reflects God's love
2. It reflects God's salvation
3. It reflects God's perfection

C) The Reason for God's wrath

1. Man's Disobedience

D) The Restraint of God's wrath

1. God is longsuffering

E) The Reality of God's wrath

1. It is coming!

F) The Rescue of God's wrath
     Romans 3:24,25
       24) Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

       25) Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his
              righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;
       Romans 5:9
       9) Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through
           him.
       

Big Idea:

The reality of God's wrath makes every
other aspect of our relationship with him more real.
