  9. First Thessalonians An Encouraging Expectancy

  10. What are your basic impressions of the Two Epistles to the Thessalonians?

  11. Purposes for the Epistle • The Problem of Persecution: For you, brethren, became imitators of the churches of God in Christ Jesus that are in Judea, for you also endured the same sufferings at the hands of your own countrymen, even as they did from the Jews (2:14). • Encouragement in Holy Living: For this is the will of God, your sanctification; that is, that you abstain from sexual immorality; 4 that each of you know how to possess his own vessel in sanctification and honor, 5 not in lustful passion, like the Gentiles who do not know God (3:3-5).

  12. Purposes for the Epistle • Establishing a Christian work ethic: Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life and attend to your own business and work with your hands, just as we commanded you; 12 so that you may behave properly toward outsiders and not be in any need (4:11-12). • Comfort for the Death of Loved Ones: But we do not want you to be uninformed, brethren, about those who are asleep, that you may not grieve, as do the rest who have no hope (4:13).

  13. A shared salvation history Chapter 1 • God’s choice of you (1:2-5). • Your imitation of Christ (1:6-8) • Your turning to God (1:9-10)

  14. Chapters 2-3 Paul’s ministry in Thessalonica A shared salvation history Chapter 1 1 Thessalonians 2:9. For you recall, brethren, our labor and hardship, how working night and day so as not to be a burden to any of you, we proclaimed to you the gospel of God.

  15. Chapters 2-3 Paul’s ministry in Thessalonica A shared salvation history Chapter 1 1 Thessalonians 3:1-2. Therefore when we could endure it no longer, we thought it best to be left behind at Athens alone, 2 and we sent Timothy, our brother and God's fellow worker in the gospel of Christ, to strengthen and encourage you as to your faith,

  16. Chapters 2-3 Chapter 4 Paul’s ministry in Thessalonica Exhortation to walk in a worthy manner A shared salvation history Chapter 1 • The principle stated (4:1) • Sexual purity (4:3-8) • Responsible work (4:9-12). • A Promise of Comfort in the face of Death (4:13-18).

  17. Chapters 2-3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Paul’s ministry in Thessalonica Exhortation to walk in a worthy manner Living in light of Christ’s return A shared salvation history Chapter 1 • Living in light of the Day of the Lord (5:1-11). • Attitudes toward Christians workers (5:12-13). • Closing instructions (5:14-28).

Day of the Lord • First… • The apostasy • The Man of sin

  23. 2 Thessalonians 2:6-7 6 And you know what restrains him now, so that in his time he may be revealed. 7 For the mystery of lawlessness is already at work; only he who now restrains will do so until he is taken out of the way. Day of the Lord • First… • The apostasy • The Man of sin

  24. 2 Thessalonians 2:8-10 8 And then that lawless one will be revealed whom the Lord will slay with the breath of His mouth and bring to an end by the appearance of His coming; 9that is, the one whose coming is in accord with the activity of Satan, with all power and signs and false wonders, 10 and with all the deception of wickedness for those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth so as to be saved. Day of the Lord • First… • The apostasy • The Man of sin
