Yet, in the midst of their difficulties, these new converts were noted for their work of faith, labour of love and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. Paul's instructions on the practical implications of holiness—and how to live an orderly life that was pleasing to God and would not bring the gospel into disrepute—have much to say to people brought to Christ today from a background of religious pluralism and a moral climate where anything goes. In these two epistles we also find two of the clearest statements in the whole New Testament about the Second Coming of Christ and the end of the age.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Chr-OT\/NT","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":42622371954912,"sku":"Books:9780852343852n","price":8.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0628\/5911\/6768\/files\/51tt2f2tV5L._SY522.jpg?v=1771107224","url":"https:\/\/theswordandshovel.com\/products\/1-and-2-thessalonians-patience-of-hope","provider":"Sword \u0026 Shovel (403)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
