We do not suffer as those without hope, so our lives should be characterized by love while we await the return of our glorious Savior on the Last Day.

In imitation of Jesus, every Christian is called to contribute and serve others as he or she is able—refusing to do so is a dereliction of duty.

In the face of adversity, the Lord teaches us to pray for protection and for the salvation of those who mistreat us.

Rooted in Jesus’ love and grace, we are called to stand firm and walk in obedient devotion to our God, while we await his glorious return.

Christians need to be prepared for the Man of Lawlessness who will lead many in the church away from the truth.

Because justice is reserved for the last day, those who are deemed worthy of heavenly glory are counted worthy to suffer for Jesus in this life.

While we await the return of Jesus, our lives are to be characterized by sacrificial love toward God and others.

You don’t need to worry about when the Lord is coming so long as you are ready for him to return.

Because our bodies are holy, death cannot have the final word—they must be raised up to join Christ on the Last Day.

Because the Holy Spirit dwells in you and other Christians you are to walk in purity and protect the purity of others.

Absence is an unavoidable (but not permanent) aspect of life in the church that Jesus overcomes by his Holy Spirit and fellow Christians.

Being mistreated is a necessary trait for all who belong to God’s family (and a proof that we are his).

When tired and exhausted, Christians need to go back to the basics—faith, hope, and love—to find strength to press forward.
