Thessalonians 1

Purpose of 1 and 2 Thessalonians. More similarities than differences This article examines the purpose of 1 and 2 Thessalonians. In the first half of both letters Paul thanks God for the faith, love and hope of the Thessalonians. In 1 Thessalonians Paul expresses his love for the readers with the purpose of strengthening his relationship with them. In 2 Thessalonians, written shortly after 1 Thessalonians, he seemingly do not regard it as necessary to repeat the nature of this relationship with the Thessalonians. In his first letter he calls the Thessalonians to a life of sanctification. In 2 Thessalonians he did likewise in his exhortation to the busy bodies (3:11). In both letters Paul writes repeatedly and extensively about the parousia, especially in 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; 5:1-11, and in 2 Thessalonians 1:5-10 and 2:1-12. However, Paul’s intention in writing these passages is not to explain the nature of the parousia, but to emphasize the aspect of paraclesis from the perspective of the parousia.

The New Testament

This chapter maintains that two ideologies concerning marriage and sex pervade the New Testament writings. One ideology codifies a narrative that argues against marriage, and perhaps, sexual intercourse, and the other retains the basic cultural values of the upper classes of the Greco-Roman world. These two ideologies are termed “profamily” and “antifamily.” The chapter proceeds in a chronological fashion starting with 1 Thessalonians, 1 Corinthians, and Mark. It concludes by examining Matthew, Luke, the Pastoral Epistles, and the Acts of Paul and Thecla.

This theme has a connection with the situation of the Thessalonians who were currently undergoing persecution. This paper will explain how Paul developed the theme of God's righteous judgment in 2 Thessalonians 1:3-10 by using the discourse analysis approach. This paper will explain that a righteous God will judge everyone by punishing the oppressors and rewarding the believers. Discourse analysis is used in this paper because it is an approach that can provide a stronger foundation when analyzing a text and provides objective criteria when investigating the problem of a text. The purpose of this paper is to encourage believers to have comfort and strength when experiencing persecution because a righteous God will judge every human being.
