First Christian Church

First Christian Church of Leisure World teaches from God’s word, the Holy Bible, most often verse by verse. It is a friendly church that welcomes all visitors. People are welcome to worship and explore God’s word together “that we may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith, both yours and mine” (Romans 1:12).

Message

Paul’s second letter to the Thessalonians was written because the new believers were uncertain about the timing of certain events such as the coming of the Lord and the day of the Lord. It seems someone had falsely informed them that these events had already transpired, and they had missed out. Paul’s letter clearly explains the ways of God, and the timing of these future events.

Without the uncertainties from the Thessalonian church, the Bible would not have this letter that is packed with the foundational truths of God’s word, evidence of God working in mysterious ways.
