What does biblical order in the church look like? In 1 Timothy 2, the Apostle Paul doesn't give a set order of service but instead provides key guidelines that shape how the church should function during worship. This passage outlines the importance of prayer for all people, including leaders, and establishes roles for both men and women in the context of public worship.

Paul calls for men to lead in prayer with pure hearts and for women to be known for their good works rather than outward appearance. He then addresses the roles of authority in the church, connecting them to the created order in Genesis, explaining that spiritual authority in the church is given to men, while women play an influential role through nurturing the next generation. Join us as we unpack how Paul’s timeless principles for order in the church remain relevant today, helping us cultivate a biblical, peaceful, and prayer-filled community.

What will happen before the world plunges into the tribulation? In 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12, the Apostle Paul addresses a confused church, clarifying the sequence of events leading to the end times. Contrary to some false teachings that had spread, Paul emphasizes that the church will be raptured before the tribulation begins. The “day of the Lord,” marked by God’s judgment and the reign of the Antichrist, is yet to come. Before the tribulation, there will be a great apostasy, and the restraining influence of the Holy Spirit through the church will be removed, allowing the “man of lawlessness,” the Antichrist, to be revealed. Paul assures the Thessalonians—and us today—that this time has not yet arrived, providing believers the opportunity to live in hope and anticipation of Christ's return. Join us as we explore the signs of the end times and the assurance that God’s plan is unfolding exactly as He promised.
