"Thessalonians II" is an insanely short book. It was about a 6 minute read. There is barely anything to talk about here. Paul tends to have a fairly standardized greeting at the beginning of his letters. These are somewhat skippable. He usually gets into the meat of his letter by the second chapter. But then by the time he gets into it here, he is already wrapping things up.
The prevailing theme of this very short book is to just be an adult. Stop being lazy. Do your work quietly and be an example to other people. Additionally, he talks about the nonbelievers: that God will make them believe their own lie and ultimately be punished for this later on. God does give up on people who don't want him, it seems.
That's it! I recommend this tiny book, as always. Time to keep going.

I love that! I love it when the proud spout nonsense and are held to it. They are kept from the Truth by the very Spirit of Truth! These pathetic people are treated BY GOD like the trash they are.
ReplyDeleteIf people wanna be trash, they get to be trash. And most people even openly admit to being trash with the caveat that everyone else is trash too. It is just an excuse to never amount to anything worthwhile.
DeleteChildren are supposed to grow up and take responsibility. Even when it comes to spiritual matters, we all bear our own burdens. Help is fine when needed, but it should never be expected and should always be appreciated.
ReplyDeleteDon't be to vain to accept help; that's for sure.
DeleteIndeed we should put childish things away and be adults, which means bearing great fruit. To be lazy is to throw away God's gifts. God does give up on those who rather live a lie, there is no place in the new Heaven and Earth for dead trees.
ReplyDeleteIt's so hard to put away childish vanity. Near impossible, but it's doable.
