In this message, we consider four scriptural measures we can use to look at our relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ, our relationship with other believers, and our hearts. Based on 1 Thessalonians 5:8-13, Brother Alan Simmons begins by asking difficult questions about our relationship with Jesus. Do we have the ability to comfort, edify and exhort other believers? Are we able to accept edification when we need it? How do other believers feel about working with us - both at the workplace or on projects at the church? The final scriptural tool is, do we have the peace the Lord offers us within our hearts? The Holy Spirit will not allow us to be at peace with others if we are not at peace with the Lord.
