II Thessalonians . 01 02 03 ..... thanksgiving for faith and perseverance
01:01 .. Paul and Silvanus and Timothy .. to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ
01:02 .. grace to you and peace from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ
01:03 .. we ought always to give thanks to God for you .. brethren .. as is only fitting .. because your faith is greatly enlarged ..
......... and the love of each one of you toward one another grows ever greater
01:04 .. therefore .. we ourselves speak proudly of you among the churches of God for your perseverance and faith in the
......... midst of all your persecutions and afflictions which you endure
01:05 .. this is a plain indication of God’s righteous judgment so that you will be considered worthy of the kingdom of God ..
......... for which indeed you are suffering
01:06 .. for after all it is only just for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you
01:07 .. and to give relief to you who are afflicted and to us as well when the Lord Jesus will be revealed from
......... heaven with his mighty angels in flaming fire
01:08 .. dealing out retribution to those who do not know God and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus
01:09 .. these will pay the penalty of eternal destruction .. away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of his power
01:10 .. when he comes to be glorified in his saints on that day .. and to be marveled at among all who have believed ..
......... for our testimony to you was believed
01:11 .. to this end also we pray for you always .. that our God will count you worthy of your calling ..
......... and fulfill every desire for goodness and the work of faith with power
01:12 .. so that the name of our Lord Jesus will be glorified in you .. and you in him ..
......... according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ
The patient suffering of believers for Christ’s sake .. is a manifest token that they are worthy to be accounted Christians .. since they can suffer for Christianity .. God will recompense their trouble with rest of heart now .. and with abundant reward at Christ’s coming .. when also he will recompense trouble to those who have troubled his people . . . . v 10 as the coming of Christ will reveal his wrath and power upon his enemies .. so his grace and power will be magnified in the complete salvation of his saints .. this is an evidence that the Church will not pass through the Great Tribulation .. the time of God’s wrath
