This study picks up where we left off last week in a very important and controversial section of prophetic scripture. 2 Thessalonians Chapter 2 provides some insights not found elsewhere. But the wordings of those insights have left bible interpreters coming away with vastly differing views.

What does Paul mean by the “Day of Christ”, “That Day” “The falling away”, “He who now restrains”? Pastor Kevin, using scripture to interpret scripture, and building on last week’s study, gives a pre-tribulational rapture, dispensational answer to these questions while at times giving alternate views. He also provides the popular rebuttals from the post-tribulation-rapture point of view, and shows why their interpretations are not even honest to the text.

Due to lack of time, chapter three was not covered but the text is included in the posting at the web site. Kevin merely summarizes chapter three with the exhortation that Paul rebuked those who were being lazy and living off of other’s labor, calling them unruly.

Next week Kevin will be starting a study through the book of Deuteronomy.
