This week, pastor Ben Erickson from Barton Church visits and walks through Paul's closing remarks in 2 Thessalonians. As Paul exhorts the Thessalonians to not follow after the world, he includes disciplined work as a feature which characterizes such separation. If indeed there are any who are unruly and idle, not working so as to provide for themselves and others, then they are to be admonished as a brother so that they might learn to honor the Lord through work. Within all of this, Paul encourages all of them not to lose heart in doing good.
