It Starts Small

Good Morning!!

SO I had forgotten, until a few days ago, that the Colossians study was written to do 5 days a week and not 7. SO we are about to close this book in a few days. Some how I missed the my own memo on that. But, here we are, already more than half way through the month of June.

July 2025 Scripture writing plan and journal: 1 & 2 Thessalonians!

The primary theme of 1 Thessalonians is the hope and expectation of Jesus’ second coming (parousia). It urges believers to live holy lives in anticipation of that event. It also addresses issues of persecution. Additionally, it encourages perseverance in faith.

The primary theme of 2 Thessalonians is the imminent return of Jesus Christ. Believers need to remain steadfast in their faith. They should live a life of purpose and discipline, even amidst persecution and uncertainty.

Paul ministered at the Thessalonians church in the book of Acts until he was forced to flea to Berea. While he was ministering at Corinth, he wrote these letters to encourage the young believers there. While the themes in these two books are widespread, the subject of eschatology is repeated multiple times.

What will happen in the last days? What happens to believers after they day? Will Jesus return again and if so how? These are just a few of the questions in this book. Often times people turn to the most famous verse in Thessalonians “we do not grieve like those with no hope” at funerals. But there is so much more in this book.
