Sermons on 2 Thessalonians

2 Thessalonians 3:16-18 Before we read, let’s look to God in prayer. Lord, we come into your house with all kinds of things on our minds, in our hearts, and we come from a world that has made it next to impossible to pay attention, to listen. And so we need your help, not only spiritually. We don’t want to be dull of heart or hard-hearted, but we also need your help to settle our minds and our hearts so…

2 Thessalonians 3:6-15 Now turn in your copy of the scriptures to 2 Thessalonians 3, 5 through 15. This is a marathon passage that jumps us right ahead to the end of our book. We’ll look in the next week or so at the very end of Thessalonians, and the plan is to move into 1 and 2 Corinthians. Several years ago, we went through Luke’s gospel account of the life and ministry of Jesus. Then afterwards, we went through…

2 Thessalonians 3:1-5 Lord, we give you thanks that by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, holy men of old set these things down for our instruction, for our growth in grace. We pray that we would receive the word as it is, not the word of men, but the very word of God. May it be at work in each of us. May it convince and convert sinners unto salvation and comfort and build up saints in our most…

2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 Amen. You can be seated. Turn in your copy of the scripture to second Thessalonians chapter two. Today, we’ll look at the last two verses of this chapter. It’s a prayer. Some see it as a prayer. Some see it as a benediction, a declaration, and some see it as a well wish. Kind of think perhaps it’s got some of all three, a prayer to God for strength. a well-wish from Paul to the Thessalonians that…

2 Thessalonians 2:13-15 Amen, you can be seated. Turn to 2 Thessalonians chapter two. Today we want to look at verses 13 through 15. 2 Thessalonians chapter two, 13 through 15. Remember, this is Paul’s letter to a church he had to leave behind very quickly after the gospel took root. Had to leave after about three weeks. Lots of trouble, Jewish persecution, wrote them these two letters, sent Timothy, and eventually on another missionary journey does get to swing…

2 Thessalonians 2:1-12 You can be seated. Please take your copy of the scriptures. Turn to 2 Thessalonians 2, 1-12. We’re going to do round two on this passage. Last week, we looked at the encouraging side of it, which was that Christians ought to not be alarmed, not be shaken, not be deceived. not fall into the prey of the man of lawlessness or fall into the spirit of lawlessness, which was scaring the Thessalonian church. So today we…

2 Thessalonians 2:1-12 Amen, you can be seated. Please turn in your copy of the scriptures to the book of 2 Thessalonians. Today we’ll look at chapter two, one through 12. So this week I flip-flopped. Usually I put a bunch of verses in, I chicken out, but this time I put a few in and I got bold. So we’re gonna look at two, one to 12, and I’m very sure, very confident that I will disappoint many of…

2 Thessalonians 1:11-12

2 Thessalonians 1:3-4 You can be seated. Turn in your copy of the scriptures to 2 Thessalonians 1, 3-4. As you’re making your way there, remember Paul, an apostle set apart by Jesus Christ. a minister to the Gentiles. He would go to a Jew first and then to the Gentiles and preach in the synagogues. And this is his second missionary journey. We studied those things in the book of Acts and we’re making our way through his letters…
