Pastor Kurt takes a deep dive into 2 Thessalonians 1:1-12 where Paul thanks God that their faith is growing and their love is increasing even while they endure persecution. Their perseverance isn’t wasted as it’s evidence that God is righteous and will ultimately set things right, bringing relief to the afflicted and justice to those who reject the gospel when Jesus is revealed. Paul then prays that God would make them worthy of their calling, and that Jesus’ name would be glorified in them.
