Destined for Glory, Dedicated to Service      2 Thess. 2:13-17

 

What God has done ___________ believers                        V. 13-17

All who dwell on the earth will worship him (the Antichrist), whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.                 -Revelation 13:8

 “The whosoever wills are the chosen ones, and the whosoever wont’s are the non-elect.”                            -J. Vernon McGee

This is the order in Scripture. The Word of God is proclaimed, heard, or read, the Spirit of God sanctifies – convicts the sinner, bringing him to the place where he desires to be saved, and is ready to receive Christ. Believing the gospel he is justified by faith.                     -H.A. Ironside

Romans 8:28-31

The Holy Spirit sanctifies us positionally when we respond to the gospel and are saved (we are forever “in Christ”). He sanctifies us progressively as we yield to Him and are transformed into Christlikeness (Philippians 1:6). We will be saved perfectly when we receive the reward of our faith and stand in the presence of Jesus Christ.                  -Mark Powell

 

What _________________ believers do for God                 V. 13-17

Do not listen to false teachers whose teaching doesn’t ____________ with the 66 books of your Bible. True believers stand firm and hold fast to the Bible!

2 Peter 3:14-16                       Acts 2:37-42   

The apostles teaching (the New Testament) takes everything taught in the Old Testament and makes it understandable in light of Christ’s _______________________ work!

Is your faith overflowing in every good word and work?
