If you were writing a letter to a beloved friend, and you wanted to make sure not to leave out anything important, how would you end your letter? Today, Pastor John describes the apostle Paul’s closing of his letter to the Christians in Thessalonica as a “PS.” And what does Paul emphasize? Be set apart for God. This is the process called “sanctification.” It means that you’re no longer divided in your loyalties, as far as who you serve. Your life is being conformed to God’s purposes and his service.
Now, let’s join Pastor John in the book of 1 Thessalonians, chapter 5, as he begins his message, Paul’s Prayerful Postscript.
