1 Thessalonians: Living to please God in a hostile world
3. Characteristics of Christians
Reading
James 2:14-26
Discussion questions
1. Read 1 Thessalonians 1:3. Would you say our Church, and your cell group, are characterised by faith, love and hope?
2. In what ways is your faith demonstrated in the things you do? Are there specific examples of activities you have committed to or done in the past that were motivated by your faith?
3. When you think of other Christians and pray for them, how do you think of them? Do you focus on their character and their attitude as Paul does in praying for this Church or their difficulties and problems? Do you need to change anything in the light of Paul's example?
