Chapter By Chapter
We know that Paul stayed in Corinth eighteen months, Acts 18:11 and so it is possible for Paul to have written the first letter at the beginning of his stay, and written the second letter toward the end of his stay, around 53 A.D. 2 Thessalonians contains three short chapters and again the theme of the return of the Christ runs throughout. 2 Thessalonians 1
In some way, Paul had learned that the return of the Lord had become the subject of intense debate in Thessalonica. It is possible that they had written to him, because the Thessalonian church had become disturbed and confused by what they had been hearing concerning the Lord’s return. There were some who did not believe that Jesus would return, there were others who said that He had returned already and there were others who were asserting that His return was imminent. 2 Thessalonians 2
The word of God had changed their lives and everyone knew about it, people saw it in their lives and heard it from their lips, they practiced what they preached, the word of God had truly been planted in their hearts and they were producing fruit. 2 Thessalonians 3
