“Therefore, brethren, stand fast, and hold the traditions which ye have been taught, whether by word, or our epistle.”
2 Thessalonians 2:15
This short epistle contains critical New Testament teaching on the coming of the Antichrist and his inevitable destruction.
But the Thessalonians needed extra help on living presently for the Lord without fear, hesitation or slackness as they awaited the unfolding of God’s purposes.
This epistle is for today’s Christian as much as any other, with practical guidance on standing firm, right living (3:6-15) and spiritual comfort in knowing God’s love and strength (2:13-15).
