BIBLE READING PLANNER

The personal return of Jesus Christ to the earth in power and glory is the way in which God's plan will be marvelously completed. Unless Jesus  returns:

Then death is the end for all.
There will be no resurrection or future life.
There will be no salvation for the righteous.
Mankind will utterly ruin itself and the earth by sin and selfishness.
God's people will not be blessed.
His Promises will remain unfulfilled.
His glory will never fill the earth.
His Plan will have failed!

THE EPISTLES TO THE THESSALONIANS

The believers in Thessalonica formerly worshipped idols. The Apostle Paul wrote them two letters, under the inspiration of God, to instruct and encourage them in their new life.

There are repeated references to the return of the Lord Jesus as the great consolation for the faithful.
