Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem
A common theory about this letter is that the Christians in Thessalonica had heard rumors that Christ had already returned, taken His people with Him, and left the Thessalonian Believers behind! Not unlike our present time, the Ancient World was filled with immorality and sin, and it seemed that all the requirements for "The End of Days" had been fulfilled. Needless to say, this caused great distress, and Paul went to great lengths to reassure them that he, the Church, and the Whole World were still in the waiting mode.
Paul then explains what WILL happen when the Time comes. In seminary, this would be a course called "Eschatology", and is a cause of great controversy among Christians. Terms like "Premillenialism" "Postmillenialism", and Amillenialism", as well as "Preterism" and "Pre-Tribulation" "Mid-Tribulation" and "Post-Tribulation" are bandied about and cause some knock-down, drag-out" conflicts right here in the Religion Forum!
Paul has a solution to these controversies: Love One Another.
Come and Pray For the Peace of Jerusalem, For Our FRiends in Need, For Persecuted Believers, and For Our Beloved Nation.
Blessings To All Who Visit This Garden of Prayer.
This Symbol Represents Christians in The Middle East, who desperately need our Prayers.
Hallelujah and Amen

"11 ..and to make it your ambition to lead a quiet life: You should mind your own business and work with your hands, just as we told you,
12 so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody."
More words of great wisdom spoken 2000 years ago that should apply to our nation today!

Amen...Praying for the Peace of Jerusalem, for the Unity of the Faith, for hearts to look up for our redemption draws near, for our families and friends in need of Salvation, for our persecuted suffering among the dark nations, for the fruit of their labors to be made evident, for all nations before the LORD.
