Paul,
Sivanus (Silas) and Timothy
To the
assembly (church) of the Thessalonians
In God
the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, the Messiah:
Grace
(spiritual blessing and Divine Favor) to you and heart peace.
We are
ever giving thanks to God for all of you,
Continually
mentioning [you when engaged] in our prayers,
Recalling
unceasingly before our God and Farther your work
Energized
by Faith ans service motivated by love,
And
unwavering Hope in (the return of ) our Lord Jesus Christ, the
Messiah. [1:10.]
[O]
Brethren beloved by God,
We
recognize and know that He has selected (chosen) you;
For
our [preaching of the] glad tidings (the Gospel)
Came
to you not only in word,
But
also in (its own inherent) Power and in the Holy Spirit,
And
with Great Conviction and absolute certainty (on our part).
You
know what kind of me we proved [ourselves] to be among you
For
your good.
And
you [set yourselves to] become Imitators of us and [through us]
Of the
Lord Himself,
For
you welcomed our message in [spite of the ] much Persecution,
With
Joy [inspired] of the Holy Spirit;
So
that you [thus] because a pattern to all the believers--
Those
who Adhere to, Trust in and Rely on Christ Jesus--
In
Macedonia and Achaia [most of Greece].
For
not only has the Word concerning and from the Lord
Resounded
forth from you unmistakably in Macedonia and Achaia,
but
everywhere the report has gone forth of your Faith in God--
Of you
Leaning of your Whole Personality on Him
In
complete Trust and Confidence in His Power, Wisdom and Goodness.
So we
[find that we] never need to tell people anything [further about it].
For
they themselves volunteer Testimony concerning us,
Telling
what an Entrance we had among you,
And
how you turned to God from [your] Idols
to
Server a God Who is Alive and True and Genuine.
And
[how you] look forward to and await
THE
COMING OF HIS SON FORM HEAVEN,
Whom
He raised from the Dead,
Jesus
Who personally Rescues and Delivers us
OUT
OF AND FROM THE WRATH (bringing punishment)
WHICH
IS COMING [upon the Impenitent]
And
draws us to Himself
[That
is, Invests us with all the Privileges and Rewards
Of the
New Life in Christ, the Messiah].
(1
Thessalonians 1:1-10, AMP)
Let
us understand that from the Fall of Adam and Eve
This
Wicked World has been in the Control of Satan [1 John 5:19)
From
that time on, God Almighty has been Redeeming men and women;
ALL
who would Believe Him and Obey His Word;
That
God Planned a Specific amount of TIME fro this to occur
6,000
years, To be followed by a Day of Rest, the Millennium.
That
at the End of TIME, God Almighty would send Christ Jesus,
His
Second Coming, To secure that Redemption,
And to
Establish His Kingdom on Earth, in Jerusalem, On Mount Zion,
Doing
away with SIN
And
those who REFUSE TO LOVE THE TRUTH [2 Thessalonians 2:10].
Today,
we are in the Last of the Last Day of TIME.
Ahead
of us lies The Great Apostasy
And
the Revealing of the son of Satan,
The
Beast of Revelation, the Antichrist. (Revelation 13)--
To be
followed by God's Great Tribulation of three and one-half years,
At the
End of which Christ Jesus Returns to the Battle of Armageddon,
Where
He defeats the Antichrist and ALL the Armies of the World
With
the Breath of His Mouth and the Splendor of His Returning.
(2
Thessalonians 2:8)
Be
always on the Watch,
And pray that you
will be able to Escape All that is about to happen,
And that you may be
able TO STAND before the Son of Man.
(Luke 21:36)
Today,
the World is raging against God, rushing toward Oblivion. (Psalm 2)
This
World in it's present form is passing away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)
America
is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.
Save
yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)
As
God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!
Father,
Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
