2 Thessalonians | Week 7: Your Perseverance and Faith (WBC)

Oct 27, 2020    Taryn Mays

The second letter opens in a familiar way. By God's grace the Thessalonian church has grown in faith, hope and love, and Paul, Silas and Timothy praise God for them. But their Christian character is not the only thing that has increased—opposition to the Thessalonian church is on the rise. Paul opens by addressing persecution, and encourages their standing in Christ by pointing to a future day of vindication. (2 Thessalonians 1:1–12)
