“Paul’s Second Letter to the Thessalonians — No Second Chances”
- In chapter one of Paul’s second letter to the Thessalonians, we saw that the sufferings of the church the Body of Christ are a “token” or “sure indication” (same Greek root word even) of God’s coming judgments on those that have persecuted us, the same ones he has just described in 1:8 as “… them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ”. So there is no question that he is concluding his former teaching here regarding those coming judgments during the Tribulation period. Those judgments therefore are not intended for us today as the false teachers had been teaching. That is, after all, the whole point of this teaching, that we will not suffer the trials of those days because “… [that day shall not come], except there come a falling away first, and [then] that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition.” Our teaching today is an introduction to those words and to that teaching.
