2 Thessalonians-5 Sessions

Paul reassures his readers that God sees their struggles and will use them for His own glory.

  1. Encouragement During Hard Times - 2 Thessalonians 1:1-12
  2. Concerned about the Second Coming? - 2 Thessalonians 2:1-12
  3. Remembering Their Calling - 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17
  4. Paul’s Request for Prayer - 2 Thessalonians 3:1-5
  5. Warning against Idleness - 2 Thessalonians 3:6-18
This letter makes it clear that the persecution and suffering these Christians experienced was not part of the day of the Lord. Paul reassures his readers that God sees their struggles and will use them for His own glory. At the same time, God's awareness means impending judgment for those who afflict Christians with persecution. Among these consequences, Paul invokes the ultimate end for those who reject God: an eternity of destruction and separation from God—what the Bible calls hell (Matthew 25:41; Revelation 20:14). Paul's intent here is to reassure believers and encourage them to continue their good works (2 Thessalonians 1:5–12).
