Time Management

Lifestyle of a Believer The Hope Daggon Home (Budd Lake, NJ) Chatten, Bob 10/06/2002

Man can’t manage time. You can only manage yourself in light of the time God has given us. The teacher covers five things in this teaching: perspective, purpose, priorities, plans, and performance, with the main point of the teaching being, “It all has to start with God”. In God’s perspective, the time until Christ returns is short, so we want to live in light of the fact that he can come back in any moment. Our purpose in life is to glorify God in our lives as we await the end of the timeline. We have one priority: God first. Everything revolves around Him, and that sets everything in place. Our plans should include the things God says are urgent from His Word. In our performance, we do everything for God with focus and singleness of heart, diligently and accurately, remembering that time is short. Also, we can have patience because we know that Christ is coming back and that we will be rewarded for that on which we faithfully spend our time in this life while keeping God first and glorifying God.

This final teaching in Thessalonians first deals with the revealing of the man of lawlessness, the Antichrist. It talks of when he is to come and what is restraining his arrival and his counterfeits. Then, it covers the disorderly walk of some people and how we, as believers, can walk without being discouraged by standing fast on the traditions we have been taught. At the end of the teaching, we are given a summary of all that we have and can do because of the hope in light of 1 and 2 Thessalonians.

2 Thessalonians 1:1 – 2:4

2 Thessalonians 1:1 – 2:4 The Hope Daggon Home (Budd Lake, NJ) Daggon, Jim 02/14/2009

2 Thessalonians looks at the second part of Christ’s coming when Jesus Christ comes back with his saints and focuses on our walk in patience for that time which is coming. It talks of how the believers were able to grow in believing and love and endurance. It compares what will happen to those that know not God and what will happen for those that do know God. God’s recompensing tribulation to those who trouble the believers, the Day of the Lord, the wrath of God, and a falling away are explained.

Immediate and remote context, Grace and peace, patience and endurance, everlasting destruction
