2 Thessalonians 2 - Clarity About His Coming
Paul wrote to the Thessalonians to give clarity about the Coming of Jesus and The Day of the Lord. The afflicted believers had been led to believe that they missed the gathering of the church (the Rapture) and that The Day of the Lord had come and now they were living through the Great Tribulation. Paul explained that certain things have to take place for The Day of the Lord to come, such as the revealing of the Antichrist.
2 Thessalonians 1 - Resolutions With God

Christmas Eve - Matthew 2:1-12 - Come to Worship Him

Advent is the celebration of the coming of Jesus. We see Mary as an example of the surrendered heart to the Lord’s will. We should react the same in light of his second coming.
1 Thessalonians 5 - Faith Awake and Active
This letter ends with a final encouragement that Jesus is coming again, and when he comes it will be like a thief in the night.

1 Thessalonians 4 - Faith Now and Hope Future
There is a way that believers in Jesus Christ ought to live. We ought to walk in faith and please God, and while we live in holiness and honor, we await the coming of Jesus when he will rapture the church.

1 Thessalonians 2 - Faith Persecuted and Proved
Paul, Silas, and Timothy wrote this young church that had been persecuted upon their reception of the Word of God.

The church in Thessalonica became a model church in their surrounding region because of their faith, love, and hope. Their faith in God was being talked about everywhere because they simply believed and lived out the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Nehemiah 13 - A Not So Good Ending
The book of Nehemiah does not end on a good note. It ends with the people failing in the areas that they said they would obey God's law in. However, the ending of Nehemiah is good in that it shows us that the law cannot save us, and that Jesus removed the curse of the law when he died for sin and gave us the blessing of his righteousness.

The work on the wall had to stop because a great outcry arose among the people of God. Nehemiah corrected the leaders who were oppressing families and thankfully they responded with repentance.

Nehemiah 3 - Let’s Work Together
The work of building the wall begins. What appears to be a long list of names in Nehemiah 3, actually shows us great truth and application for how we are to work together to build God's church and advance his kingdom.
