Lesson
_a*_* .. ....
the patient hope we have in
Christ causes us to struggle
forward with the Lord’s held,
for righteousness in every
area of life.
Paul thanked God because
they had heard the call of God
in their lives and had answer
ed God positively, yielding
their lives to Him. Now, all of
these things for which Paul
thanked God for are Christian
characteristics that come into
heincMj result of a new life
of faith in Christ and they
develop through disciplined
cjfrlstlan living,
nrth and growth are
observable I And, this is why
Paul gave thanks.
Paul speaks of the manner
in which tlie gospel had come
to the Thessalonlcans. It had
come in the written word, the
preached word, and lives dis
ciplined by the word. The
Apostle not only wrote the
word and preached it to them,
but he also lived according to
the word before them. The
gospel had come to them in
powers both miraculous and
moral. The gospel had come in
the power of the Holy Spirit
and in much assurance. The
results oroduced bv the com
ing of the word; they turned.
from idols they turned to God,
they became imitators of
Christ;and they became ex
amples. to others. ‘
Peter would have us to know
• that God hath given us all
ttogs that pertain unto life
and godliness. God wants Hit
people to live Godly lives -
disciplined Christian lives.
God does not only require us tc
do so, but He bestows upon us
all things that are necessary
for doing so. All that we need
is in Christ and is acquired
by knowing christ.
Among all the things in
Christ that we need, we should
place a high value on His
precious promises. For as we
take possession of these hea
venly gifts, we became shar
ers of God’s devine nature.
Peter concludes our lesson
with a list of Christian char
acteristics to be developed by
disciplined Christian living.
Both Paul and Peter would
have us know that if we are
Christians, someone should
know it. After our observable
birth into the Christian family,
observable spiritual gorwth is
expected.
Lost Of Blood
Can Lead
To Death
On the average, an adult has
five to six quarts of blood
circulating throughout his
body. However, when injured,
the loss of even two or three
pints can cause shock and lead
to death.
What Is the best way of
_li_i. .
wrF“‘R uiccurn^ i.rum
a wound? The easiest, quick
est, and safest way is to apply
direct pressure. This can be
done by pressing a cloth pad
directly on the wound, cover
ing the area of bleeding. ‘If no
clean cloth is available, paper
or even a bare hand may be
used.
The use of a tourniquet by
an untrained person is dis
couraged because^ the tourni
quet completely cuts off the
blood 'supply. Improperly 1
used it can result in the loss of
a limb.
Firm pressure with the
palm of the hand and the flat
area of the fingers should be
applied on the pad, which
should not be lifted until help
arrives. New pads can be
added as the previous pads
become soaked with blood.
If pressure and elevation of
the wound fail to stop the
bleeding of a limb, pressure
should be applied to the limb’s
main artery. If it is an arm
wound; the- flat part ef th*
fingers should be pressed half
way between the armpit and
the elbow in the inside of the
arm between the biceps and
triceps. This procedure forces
the artery against the underly
ing bone, stopping the bleed
ing.
If the injury is on the leg, the
victim should be placed on his
back.

The discussion of this
week's lesson should prove
most*helpful for all of us who
are concerned with Christian
growth. The subject of our
lesson is .“Expressions of the
Disciplined Life.”
The lesson is based Upon
IThess. 1:2-7 ;I1 Peter 1:3-7.
Our lesson begins with Paul
telling the Christians at Thess
alonica how he gives thanks to
Sod. Paul gave thanks to God
__ »cause of their work of faith,
''aith may be counted a work,
or it is laying hold of Christ
or salvation. Faith is also
ised to meet opposition. Our
: aith encourages us and moti
vates us to do work for the
Lord, His church and the
world. Paul declared that
without works is dead.
. Paul thanked God because
♦f their labor of love. The
quantity and quality of our
Work is a test of our love's
strength. We show our love for
Christ by what we do for Him,
His church and the world,
wherever you see an idle
church member, you see a
psrson that has no Christian
love!
Paul thanked God because
the Christians at Thessalonica
had a patient hope. It had been
severely tried, but not quench
ed. It is difficult, as a race of
people, to so often be on the
