Living to Please God - Part 2
From Higher Aim with Dr. Curt Dodd · 29:21
Show by Dr. Curt Dodd
What does it really mean to please God? In 1 Thessalonians 4 and 5, Paul turns from his concern for the young church to a single, practical theme: how to live a life that pleases the Lord. "We instructed you how to live in order to please God, as in fact you are living. Now we ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus to do this more and more" (1 Thessalonians 4:1). If we do not understand what pleases God, we will simply do our own thing.In earlier messages, Dr. Dodd taught that we are to please God intentionally, authoritatively, and sexually. In this message he takes the next step: we are to please God intellectually. Many people treat the Christian life as mostly a matter of feelings, but God never asks us to set our minds aside. Our faith rests on truth that can stand up to honest examination, and God calls every believer to know what they believe and why they believe it.
