2 Thessalonians 2
Inspired thots
Alarm is caused by being taken in by deception; deception overtakes because of the lack of knowledge; lack of knowledge causes one to sway at every piece of alarming news... and the cycle continues.
The cycle occurs because one is not willing to accept what God has revealed or remember what is taught. Forgetfulness is a dangerous trait. It is a personal choice.
There is good news; stability; victory; security; in the midst of anything, God is triumphant - before, now and in the future. Forgetting and not believing that are detrimental to a Christian's well being - physically, spiritually and emotionally.
Always go back to the 'beginning' - what God has set into motion (v13)
Remember the 'end' - victory is the final destination for God's people.
Hence, the 'in between' proces - to stand firm and hold on to Christ's teachings. (v18)
Life can be so simple and fulfilling. Can it happen to me or you?
