Thru the Bible with Dr. J. Vernon McGee 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11
“The believer in Christ is to be awake and alert in view of His coming.” That’s some of the great advice we receive from our teacher, Dr. J. Vernon McGee, in this study of 1 Thessalonians chapter 5. Hop aboard the Bible Bus as we hear more about the rapture of the Church straight from the Apostle Paul.
Thru the Bible - Minute with McGee Dr. J. Vernon McGee
Our Greatest Need.
We forgot that any nation or any church or any individual fall from the inside. It’s not what happens on the outside, but it’s what happens on the inside. And you can’t glory today in riches, and you can’t glory today in power, and you can’t glory today in wisdom. And we have had a brain trust in Washington now too long. We need somebody up there who knows something other than the present godless philosophy. We need somebody who knows God and is willing to stand on his two feet and says that he knows God. That’s the great need in this country today—is a return to God.

Daily Promises
For as the heaven is high above the earth, [so] great is his mercy toward them that fear him. As far as the east is from the west, [so] far hath he removed our transgressions from us. Like as a father pitieth [his] children, [so] the LORD pitieth them that fear him. (Psalm 103:11-13)
Believer rejoice! Though of your sin-stained self you could nowise enter the presence of the Lord Almighty, yet God loves to such a degree and extent that He sent His only Son to pay for your corrupted life. His promise-not only to forgive their sins but also forget them, if His people will but ask-stands an incredible offer of mercy and grace, and is of such magnitude that the only response His child can possibly muster is one of unbounded joy! For when you were forgiven, you became the very child of God, allowed entrance into His own throne room. Again, rejoice!
Satisfaction In "No".
Get thee up into the top of Pisgah, and lift up thine eyes westward, and northward, and southward, and eastward, and behold it with thine eyes: for thou shalt not go over this Jordan. — Deuteronomy 3:27
Rather than becoming upset and frustrated with God when He says no, we should look for the satisfaction in God’s no.

The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command. His heart sank as he thought of the enormous power arrayed against him, the ease with which any Party intellectual would overthrow him in debate, the subtle arguments which he would not be able to understand, much less answer. And yet he was in the right! They were wrong and he was right.

Charles Haddon Spurgeon June 19th — Evening Reading
"My Beloved is mine, and I am His: He feedeth among the lilies. Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my Beloved, and be Thou like a roe or a young hart upon the mountains of Bether." — Song of Songs 2:16, 17
Surely if there be a happy verse in the Bible it is this-"My Beloved is mine, and I am His." So peaceful, so full of assurance, so overrunning with happiness and contentment is it, that it might well have been written by the same hand which penned the twenty-third Psalm. Yet though the prospect is exceeding fair and lovely-earth cannot show its superior-it is not entirely a sunlit landscape. There is a cloud in the sky which casts a shadow over the scene. Listen, "Until the day break, and the shadows flee away."
There is a word, too, about the "mountains of Bether," or, "the mountains of division," and to our love, anything like division is bitterness. Beloved, this may be your present state of mind; you do not doubt your salvation; you know that Christ is yours, but you are not feasting with Him. You understand your vital interest in Him, so that you have no shadow of a doubt of your being His, and of His being yours, but still His left hand is not under your head, nor doth His right hand embrace you. A shade of sadness is cast over your heart, perhaps by affliction, certainly by the temporary absence of your Lord, so even while exclaiming, "I am His," you are forced to take to your knees, and to pray, "Until the day break, and the shadows flee away, turn, my Beloved."
"Where is He?" asks the soul. And the answer comes, "He feedeth among the lilies." If we would find Christ, we must get into communion with His people, we must come to the ordinances with His saints. Oh, for an evening glimpse of Him! Oh, to sup with Him to-night!
Charles Haddon Spurgeon June 20th — Morning Reading
"For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth." — Amos 9:9
Every sifting comes by divine command and permission. Satan must ask leave before he can lay a finger upon Job. Nay, more, in some sense our siftings are directly the work of heaven, for the text says, "I will sift the house of Israel." Satan, like a drudge, may hold the sieve, hoping to destroy the corn; but the overruling hand of the Master is accomplishing the purity of the grain by the very process which the enemy intended to be destructive. Precious, but much sifted corn of the Lord's floor, be comforted by the blessed fact that the Lord directeth both flail and sieve to His own glory, and to thine eternal profit.
The Lord Jesus will surely use the fan which is in His hand, and will divide the precious from the vile. All are not Israel that are of Israel; the heap on the barn floor is not clean provender, and hence the winnowing process must be performed. In the sieve true weight alone has power. Husks and chaff being devoid of substance must fly before the wind, and only solid corn will remain.
Observe the complete safety of the Lord's wheat; even the least grain has a promise of preservation. God Himself sifts, and therefore it is stern and terrible work; He sifts them in all places, "among all nations"; He sifts them in the most effectual manner, "like as corn is sifted in a sieve"; and yet for all this, not the smallest, lightest, or most shrivelled grain, is permitted to fall to the ground. Every individual believer is precious in the sight of the Lord, a shepherd would not lose one sheep, nor a jeweller one diamond, nor a mother one child, nor a man one limb of his body, nor will the Lord lose one of His redeemed people. However little we may be, if we are the Lord's, we may rejoice that we are preserved in Christ Jesus.
Thru the Bible with Dr. J. Vernon McGee 1 Thessalonians 5:11-28
“If there is any question in your mind whether something is right or wrong, then it is wrong for you.” That’s the wisdom we’ll hear from Dr. J. Vernon McGee in our study of 1 Thessalonians. Travel with us through the pages of chapter 5 as we study the concluding verses in this amazing epistle.

Thru the Bible - Minute with McGee Dr. J. Vernon McGee
He Is The Head Of The Church.
Anything that you do in the local church, you’re to do it not only in the name of Christ, but you’re to do it at His command. He’s the Lord. And He made the statement, He said, “You called me Lord, Lord, and you don’t do the things that I say—you don’t obey Me.” I wonder if He might not say that to many of us today. We just don’t call Him Lord. He says many in that day are going to say, “Lord, Lord, didn’t we do this, that, and the other thing? We were busy as termites for You.” And He’s going to say, “Well, I don’t even know you. I didn’t know you were doing that in My name. You certainly didn’t go about it that way. You didn’t seek My will. You didn’t seek to obey Me.” Oh this is very personal, you see.
