Sermon Overview

Paul continues defending his ministry against opposition by reminding the Thessalonians of the validating marks of his ministry among them. In this lesson, we give our minds to the last of three marks of Paul’s ministry amidst the Thessalonians that should anchor us to sufficiency of God’s Word.

  1. Preaching with Power (2:1-2)
  2. Preaching with Truth (2:3-4)
  3. Preaching with Compassion (2:5-12)
    • Maternal Care (2:7-8)
    • Paternal Counsel (2:9-12)
