Speculation about the second coming of our Lord is nothing new. The saints in Thessalonica were already being misled.
Paul’s two corrective letters, among his earliest, deal with the issue in a way that is profound and practical, as well as giving details to be found nowhere else in the New Testament.
The ‘rapture’, the man of lawlessness, the temple – these and other features are uniquely here. But there is also much sound advice for those who are ‘so heavenly minded they are no earthly use’.
Meddling in other people’s business, living on the generosity of others rather than earning, despising prophetic words, sexual behaviour that is lust rather than love – these are just some of the arrows that find a target within the church.
After two thousand years these letters are as relevant today as they ever were. Paul probably never guessed they would become part of scripture, which God intended to be used until history ended and eternity began.
This is part of the comprehensive Anchor series: Unlocking The New Testament.

    The Good Book Stall

    Average rating of0.0

    It is refreshing to read a book on God's word and that treats God's word as God's word. Writing as an evangelical with charismatic leanings, David Pawson has a high view of Scripture. The book reads as a series of sermons and has page after page of explanation and application. The opening chapter on what makes a successful church is particularly strong as is his discussion about divine sovereignty and human responsibility in the last. Occasionally Mr. Pawson recounts stories of modern day Christians’ experiences which, in the reviewer’s mind, contradict Bible teaching. For instance he tells of two people who recently saw Jesus walking by a lake. Do not the Scriptures tell us that the next time Jesus is seen on earth is when he returns to bring the world to an end? Overall, this is a good book that will help you understand 1 and 2 Thessalonians, challenge your Christian walk and prepare you for the Lord's return.
