Нақшаҳои хониши ройгон ва садоқатҳои марбут ба 2 Thessalonians 1:10

Has Jesus already come and gone? Second Thessalonians assured fearful people who had been told a lie and that Jesus Christ’s second coming was still to come. He didn’t leave you behind. Don’t give up. This same truth keeps a fire kindled in our hearts that produces self-control, discipline, and determination to keep moving forward. Trusted Bible teacher Dr. J. Vernon McGee leads us through this short, powerful book.

Written shortly after 1 Thessalonians, Paul’s second letter continues to encourage the Thessalonian church by admonishing them to stand firm on the truth (2 Thessalonians 2:15).

This plan offers a 3-day journey through the book of 2 Thessalonians, making it ideal for both individual and group study.

In this 6-day devotional, James Hamilton guides readers through Scripture and enables them to pause and treasure God’s glory.

All Christians find it difficult to pray at times. The apostle Paul found the kind of spiritual closeness in his own fellowship with the Father that is available to all of us.

Does it seem like the world could collapse at any moment? Paul gave God’s answer in two letters to the Thessalonians. A sudden crisis and danger kept Paul separated from these new believers. Paul's letters encourage believers to persevere in the cause of Christ, expecting His return. Discover how our choices to faithfully obey God could impact our times and future generations.

Some people joke that they’d rather be in hell drinking with their buddies than in heaven with stuffy saints. But these people are completely blind to its reality and meaning.

Deeper into Scripture is a methodology of scripture reading that instructs, encourages and equips people to read God’s Word daily and deeply. We have created a unique four-fold method of bible reading that directs the individual to read a short passage of scripture four times. Each reading is done with a different question, instruction or objective to be considered. This repetitive reading and instruction takes us deeply into the Word of God and draws us closer to Him.

Daily Bible Reading is designed to facilitate consistent interaction with Scripture. It includes background information on each day’s Scripture passage and key verse for meditation, reflection questions to help you dive deeper into Scripture, and a prayer and prayer concern to help you connect to God and be of spiritual support to others. Journey with us this month as we explore the theme “God’s Word of Faith.”

Read the daily passage first, reflect on one or more questions, and try the engagement practice.
