Knowing God’s Word Second Thessalonians

Knowing God’s Word Last week we looked at I Thessalonians, a letter Paul wrote to the church in Thessalonica to strengthen their faith This week we move onto the book of Second Thessalonians II Thessalonians is the 14th book in the NT and is the 9th of the Pauline Epistles (Romans through Philemon)

Knowing God’s Word Paul is the author of the book of II Thessalonians, addressed along with Silvanus & Timothy (1:1; 3:17) This second letter to the Thessalonians is the third letter Paul wrote in order of date The date of the writing of this book would be around 53 AD

Knowing God’s Word Thessalonica was the chief city of Macedonia It was a seaport on the northwest corner of the Aegean Sea, having a Roman highway running through from East-West It’s name today is Thessaloniki, located in the same spot

Knowing God’s Word Paul founded the church there on his second missionary journey following the “Macedonian call” We find the story there in Acts 17:1-9 There were many who were converted there, but also many who resisted and caused trouble

Knowing God’s Word Paul writes this second letter to the church at Thessalonica based on new problems that had arisen They remained faithful, but were shaken or troubled about the “day of Christ” (2:1-2) There were also some not working, so Paul addresses this as well (3)

Knowing God’s Word Concerning the “day of Christ”, Paul mentions it will not happen until the man of sin (son of perdition) is revealed This is likely one who is either still to come or developing as the man of sin Many have pointed to the Catholic church and the papacy as this man of sin
