1 and 2 Thessalonians were written by the apostle Paul to the church at Thessalonica. It was a young church experiencing great persecution. The Thessalonian Christians needed to mature in their faith and have correct understanding concerning Christ’s second coming. As we begin a new millennium, many words will fill the air about Christ’s return. But no one knows the exact time of this event. Thus, believers should live moral and holy lives, ever watchful of Christ’s coming, not neglecting daily responsibilities but always working and living to please the Lord.
