Today we begin a study in Second Thessalonians chapter three. In this chapter, Paul wraps up his thoughts on the truth of God's word, how the world is in desperate need of knowing that truth and how we should be sharing that truth as we await the return of the Lord.

We're currently traveling verse by verse through Paul's second letter to the Thessalonians and are focusing in on chapter two today. In this section of Scripture, Paul writes about what is known as The Great Apostasy, a day in which there will be a massive falling away from the faith. He exhorts us to stand fast in the faith because there will be many false teachers paving the way for the emergence of the Antichrist into the world.

Satan has been plotting the destruction of God's kingdom and those who dwell in it since the garden of eden. Pastor Lloyd is going to take us to several places in the bible to show us how satan's plan of deception is working, and what we can do to avoid falling for his lies.

If you're familiar with God's word, you probably already know the topic today - the antichrist. Who will he be? How will we know it's really him? Will we even be around when he starts his reign of deceit? Those are corny asked questions about this particular chapter, and Lloyd will provide some sound answers today so open your bible to Second Thessalonians chapter two.

Today on Bridging the Gap with Pastor Lloyd Pulley, we'll learn more the signs of the last days mentioned in Second Thessalonians. There is no question that anyone who takes an honest look at the world today would conclude that we are definitely living in the final days before Jesus returns. Are you keeping watch for the return of the Lord?

On today's broadcast we continue verse by verse through Second Thessalonians. We've come to chapter two in our study and the signs of the End Times. Two of those signs are the great Apostasy - where many turn away from the Lord and the coming of the Antichrist. Men and women who think they are too wise to be deceived, will indeed be deceived!

Today Pastor Lloyd continues a new series through First Thessalonians. It's here we'll discover the change that took place in the city of Thessalonica as a result of believing the gospel of Jesus Christ. Having come into a relationship with God through Jesus Christ, there was a real peace in the lives of the Thessalonian believers. They were on fire for the Lord and turned away from the old life.

On today's broadcast Pastor Lloyd begins a study of Second Thessalonians. As pastor Lloyd begins in chapter one, he not only presents a prophetic overview of things to come but will also address the historical background of this exemplary Church that was on fire for the Lord - as it awaited the Lord's soon return.

Today on Bridging the Gap, we bring our series in First Thessalonians to a close with a big finale as well - the last amazing verses of Paul's first letter to the Thessalonian church. What an inspiring and challenging section of scripture this is - for the Thessalonians and for us!

The Bible is the ultimate and perfect guide for life, and we are going to see a great example of this today, in First Thessalonians chapter five. Pastor Lloyd has titled today's message "Practicing Love". That pretty much says it all, doesn't it?
