2 Thessalonians 2-3
2 ThessaloniansSteve Gregg
In this analysis of 2 Thessalonians 2-3, Steve Gregg explores the concept of the rapture and the rise of the little horn in Daniel. He challenges the belief in a separate time for the rapture and suggests that martyrdom has been a common occurrence throughout church history. Gregg also delves into the idea of God's election and the role of the Church in its changing definition over time. Overall, his examination seeks to provide a fresh perspective on biblical passages and their relevance to the lives of believers today.
