Presentation transcript:

2 Thessalonians was apparently prompted by three main developments. 1. The persecution of the Christians there had grown worse and was leaving some at the point of despair. 2. A letter and/or other representations falsely claiming to be from Paul were on the verge of convincing the Christians there that the end- time was imminent. 3. The nearness of Christ's return was being misused as a basis for shirking vocational responsibility.

PAUL'S PURPOSE: 2 Thessalonians To meet the needs that prompted the Epistle, Paul pursued three broad purposes: 3. Paul issues detailed instructions covering disciplinary steps the church should take in correcting those who refuse to work (3:6-15)
