2 Thessalonians 1:6 God is just: He will pay back trouble to those who trouble you 7 and give relief to you who are troubled, and to us as well. This will happen when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven in blazing fire with his powerful angels. 8 He will punish those who do not know God and do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9 They will be punished with everlasting destruction and shut out from the presence of the Lord and from the majesty of his power 10 on the day he comes to be glorified in his holy people and to be marveled at among all those who have believed. This includes you, because you believed our testimony to you.
Do you feel safe in this world ? I have to tell you I do not. I read the news of murders and car-jackings in Memphis. I see gang signs painted on the side of buildings as I drive to work. I wonder is this the day my house is going to be broken into. As the economy get worse this may increase. This is the world we live in.
Why does God allow this to happen ?
Have we as a church failed ?
Can we as a church turn this around ?
Let's talk about it Sunday in class.
