God's Redemption Story (The Church: Part 2)Sample
1 & 2 Thessalonians – Day 2
Jesus is coming back for us one day—hallelujah! But no one knows when. Scripture gives us some clues about what the world will be like, but there’s no way to pin down the day and time when we’ll see our King face to face.
So Paul reminds the Thessalonians and us to be ready. Some days we’ll likely get tired of following Jesus. We’ll be tempted to relax our standards and go with the flow. The world talks about peace, and some of the world’s solutions may even look a little like peace. But Paul says when the world relaxes into its manufactured peace, that is when Jesus will arrive to destroy the earth.
That may sound scary or harsh or ridiculous, but we only need to remain focused on Jesus as our King to rest in the confidence of our victory.
