Love God Greatly: 1 & 2 Thessaloniansنموونە
Read: 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4
SOAP: 2 Thessalonians 2:3
Paul explains to the church at Thessalonica the order of end times events. After Christ returns to rescue the church and remove His followers from earth, a time of rebellion will take place where a “man of lawlessness,” also called “son of destruction,” will exalt himself and demand worship. This evil anti-Christ will proclaim himself to be God.
The enemy of our souls wants us to fear him and lose hope as wickedness increases in our world. But God is still on the throne, and no counterfeit Christ can knock unseat Him. Nothing can stop God’s work of redemption in the life of a believer. He will remove His children from this period of rebellion, but until then our job is to tell every lost soul that Christ alone is the way, the truth, and the life. Do you know someone who is a slave to fear? Ask God to help you point them to the real Savior this week.

About this Plan
In the books of 1st & 2nd Thessalonians, you meet a church who are going through some storms. Severe persecution is threatening their lives, and they are clinging to the promise that Jesus is coming back. This promise is from the Promise Keeper…He IS coming back. The Thessalonians had to learn to live with this hope as they lived their lives in the now.
