The primary focus of Paul’s epistles to the Thessalonians, written A.D. 50–51, is Christian living in light of eternity, which results in balance. The “bookends” of 1Th 1:3 and 1Th 5:8 reveal the book’s theme—the well-balanced Christian life. The book also teaches that God’s Word works through faith. Interestingly, this epistle is closely related in content to the Old Testament book of Ruth, which provides a perfect biblical illustration of the practical truths of this book.Gene Cunningham - April 19, 2023
If Jesus doesn't come back soon
If Jesus Christ doesn't come soon, you and I are going to watch the demise of our nation. And here he quotes Isaiah 40:6-8, “because all flesh is as grass and all the glory of man as the flower of grass. The grass withers and the flower falls away.” There is all of human history. There is every kingdom that has ever arisen on this earth. There is every civilization. No matter how beautiful the flower, the grass withers and the flower falls. The flower of the United States of America is about to fall. If Jesus Christ doesn't come soon, you and I are going to watch the demise of our nation. And it's going to break my heart because this nation has been the brightest light in modern history. It has been to the modern age what the nation of Israel should have been and sometimes was in their own age. And the greatest hope for freedom, liberty and prosperity and compassion is going to be gone from the earth.
