Living in Light of Jesus Return

2 Thessalonians 2

• The certainty of Jesus’ return (v.1-2)

  “At that time the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and all the nations of the earth will mourn. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky, with power and great glory. And he will send his angels with a loud trumpet call.
           Matthew 24:30-31

  But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare. Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming. That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. But in keeping with his promise, we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness.
           2 Peter 3:10-13

   

• Understanding what happens before Jesus returns (v.3-12)

   

• A prayer for us to stand firm to the end (v.13-17)
