Mar 3, 2012 · Second Thessalonians 1:11 says that it is by the power of God that we will fulfill our good resolves and our works of faith. But this does not nullify the meaning of the word “resolve” and the word “work.” Part of the whole process of walking worthy of God’s call is the active engagement of our will in resolving to do righteousness.

Whenever we feel or see something that we should be doing that we are not doing, we should resolve: “Do it.” Whenever we are doing something that we should not be doing, and we recognize that we are doing it, we should resolve: “Don’t do it.” Resolve...
Paul said — this has been really important in my understanding, Tony, of tough decisions — in Romans 14:5: “One man esteems one day above another. Another esteems every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his full mind.” That is amazing. In other words, whether you go with saying all days are alike or whether you go with esteeming one da...
Paul prays that God "may fulfill every good resolve and work of faith by his power." Why Is This the Duty of All Christians? The first question to ask then is, "Why?" Paul himself must have been a real "why-asker" because he always answers that question. Here he answers it in three ways.
