“So we keep on praying for you, asking our God to enable you to live a life worthy of his call. May he give you the power to accomplish all the good things your faith prompts you to do. Then the name of our Lord Jesus will be honored because of the way you live, and you will be honored along with him. This is all made possible because of the grace of our God and Lord, Jesus Christ.” - 2 Thessalonians 1:11-12

1 and 2 Thessalonians, besides being perhaps the hardest books to say, is a fascinating look at some of Paul’s earliest letters in his ministry journeys. For these letters, as we’ll see from our conversation today, context is highly important because Paul is writing to a new church, new Christians, living in Macedonia during the Roman empire. So as you read these letters, you see Paul showing love and care for a new congregation - answering questions and speaking to issues that were incredibly relevant to their context. But as we’ve said many times, these letters were written to that church, but they are still for us. So how do the themes Paul presents in these letters of remembering, persecution, encouragement, hope and more speak to the Thessalonians and for us? And what is to be done with 2 Thessalonians chapter 2 and the man of lawlessness? To help us navigate 1 and 2 Thessalonians is Dr. Gene Green, recently Dean of Trinity International University in Florida and Professor Emeritus of New Testament at Wheaton College, and author of a commentary on Thessalonians.
