📚 About this Book
✦ Chapter Overview

Second Thessalonians 1 opens with Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy greeting the church with grace and peace, thanking God that the Thessalonians' faith is growing abundantly and their love for one another is abounding. Paul boasts about their patience and faith amid persecutions, viewing their afflictions as evidence of God's righteous judgment that they are counted worthy of the kingdom. The chapter closes with the promise that the Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire, taking vengeance on those who do not know God and obey not the gospel, while he is glorified in his saints—and Paul prays that God would count them worthy of their calling and fulfill every good work of faith, so that the name of Jesus may be glorified in them.
