Thanksgiving and Encouragement
May 19, 2024 • Matthew Allen
With the primary reason for writing the second letter, exposing and refuting the false teaching they had received and helping them better understand what would happen when the Lord returns, Paul now moves to cover more general issues. There are two sections of thanksgiving and prayer in 2 Thessalonians (1:3, 11) and here in 2:13-14, 16; 3:1, 5.
