Many misinterpret second coming prophecy because they do not know its purpose. It is not to inform us about events. It is not to identify the anti-Christ. It is to inspire us to obedience.
The Purpose of Second Coming Prophesy 2 Thessalonians 3:4-13 Thomas Fuller was born in Africa about 1710. He was sold as a slave in Virginia in 1724.

My first job was working in an orange juice factory, but I got canned...just couldn't concentrate. 3. After that I tried to be a tailor, but I just wasn't suited ...read more

We have seen the signs. "Will Work For Food". Would it be unreasonable to suggest "Must Work For Food"?
Some have suggested that the able bodied poor should perform some sort of work or community service to receive benefits. Of course, others have opposed it. FDR created the CCC and WPA which were pretty much working welfare programs. Indeed, it was a fulltime job and not easy labor. Lev_19:10 ...read more

Emotional Blackmail by Fr. Emmerich Vogt, O.P. Something I always like to cover in my missions is the role of feelings and emotions in our moral lives.

WORKING AND EATING. 2 Thessalonians 3:6-13.

Hence the reason we are calling this message series Chronos. It's a word that means “time.” We will be ...read more
Last message in 2 Thessalonians. It addresses Christian responsibility to those in and out of the church, and our response to the lazy.
2 Thessalonians 3 (2) Our Responsibility in the End Times Years ago, I went out to the dump in Geneva. I believe that is the first place I remember seeing it, though I’ve seen it at several other dumps since the. If you go out there now you will see the same sad sight. You will see 10 or more ...read more

What does the word “laziness” mean? Laziness is being unwilling to work or being idle.
Certain individuals in the Thessalonian church were dishonestly instructing that since Christ would return quickly, individuals ought to save their obligations, quit work, do no future preparation, and simply just stand by and wait. Be that as it may, their absence of action just drove them into ...read more
Thessalonica was a wonderful testimony to a rapid advance approach to ministry. Paul mentions being there three sabbaths (Acts 17:2). There were many who were won to Christ and built up in faith in this short time before the team, Paul, Silas and Timothy moved on.
My wife and I took part in a nine-month ministry training program called Rapid Advance. The name of the training came from this chapter and from a summary of how the Gospel moved in the book of Acts. Paul did not spend his years of ministry planting a single church and trying to perfect it. He ...read more
Right in the middle of warning the ones who were being lazy and taking advantage of others, Paul tells the church that it should not discourage them from doing what was right and good.
Alba 4-21-2024 DO NOT GROW WEARY IN DOING GOOD II Thessalonians 3:6-15 You may have heard the quote: “Do all the good you can, to all the people you can, in all the ways you can, as often as you can, and as long as you can.” I was looking up that quote and found that it has been attributed to ...read more
Christians are to be readily recognizable. They are to be seperate from worldly persons. However, it is most difficult to identify one in a crowd in the modern world. Why?
In western culture and its influence upon all the rest of mankind, depicting Christians from the rest of the world is most difficult today. The only differences we see come from diverse groups who outwardly show differences in their dress and chosen culture. Outward differences among all others are ...read more
