Is the blood of Jesus Christ all-sufficient for our salvation? The moment we add anything to the cross, we have declared that it is not. This is true whether the additional condition is placed before or after salvation. The ANCHOR OF OUR SOUL is the finished work of Christ (Heb. 6:18-20), is SURE and STEADFAST!

The Thessalonians were persecuted for their faith. Paul's first letter to them provides comfort, reminding them of the details of Christ's return for His Church ("The Blessed Hope") and providing practical spiritual lessons for living.
