Book of 2 Thessalonians

Shortly after sending the first letter to the Thessalonians that dealt extensively with eschatology, another letter forged in Apostle Paul’s name crept in the church, falsely claiming that Jesus had already returned, causing idleness and confusion among the believers. Paul promptly wrote this letter to rectify their distorted understanding concerning the return of Jesus and to remind the readers, including us, to stay positive and productive on a daily basis.

Through the Bible: 2 Thessalonians

Has Jesus already come and gone? Second Thessalonians assured fearful people who had been told a lie and that Jesus Christ’s second coming was still to come. He didn’t leave you behind. Don’t give up. This same truth keeps a fire kindled in our hearts that produces self-control, discipline, and determination to keep moving forward. Trusted Bible teacher Dr. J. Vernon McGee leads us through this short, powerful book. 

Thru the Bible—2 Thessalonians

While We Wait - a Study of 1 & 2 Thessalonians

Beginning with Philippians, Paul gives insight into his personal experiences, including his ability to be content in both abundance and lack. Then, in Colossians, Paul focuses on the supremacy of Christ, showcasing His sovereignty in the physical and spiritual realms. Finally, in 1 & 2 Thessalonians, Paul writes to honor and congratulate the Christians in Thessalonica for their faith and growth in the face of intense persecution.

Philippians - Living in the Word

Paul writes to the church in Thessalonica to clear up confusion circulating about Jesus’ return. In a previous letter, Paul had said Jesus’ return was imminent. Some in the church took that to mean Jesus was coming back immediately. Paul corrects them and instructs the church on how to live in the meantime. Reading this study, you’ll face the reality of Jesus’ return and our responsibility to live for him.
