Pray continually. Give thanks in every situation because this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. Don’t suppress the Spirit. Don’t brush off Spirit-inspired messages, but examine everything carefully and hang on to what is good. Avoid every kind of evil. Now, may the God of peace himself cause you to be completely dedicated to him; and may your spirit, soul, and body be kept intact and blameless at our Lord Jesus Christ’s coming. The one who is calling you is faithful and will do this. var podscribeEmbedVars = { epId: 58711564, backgroundColor: 'white', height: '600px', showSpeakers: true }; Photo by Kelly SikkemaThe post What is Good & Right – 1 Thessalonians 5:16-24 appeared first on Queer Theology.
