The Epistles of Paul to the Thessalonians
Blurb
The establishment of the assembly in Thessalonica resulted from Paul's missionary labours in that region. His practice was to stay in the area where he preached to establish the new believers who had been converted through his labours, but on this occasion he was forced to break off his works there and take flight on account of the persecutions that Paul and his co-workers where only in Thessalonica for three Sabbath days - about three weeks. This left these new convert in need of spiritual help and instruction.
Being faced with the situation of having to care for new converts, we might wonder what sort off things should be brought before them to establish them and help them on in the path of faith. We believe the answer is found in Christian living and afford us with valuable instruction on how we are to care for new believers.
As long as the Church is on earth and the gospel of the grace and glory of God is preached, people will get saved, and there will be need for caring for new believers. The epistles to the Thessalonians, therefore, fill a very useful place in the New Testament canon of Scripture.
