EP#29: God’s Eternal Plan to Save His People

In this week’s podcast, Bob Kreycik joins Todd and Christian in a discussion on 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17. Bob reminds us that this letter from Paul is addressed to young, first-generation Christians that are struggling in their faith and are under persecution. Bob focuses on verse 13, assuring them (and us) that God chose them to believe in the saving work of Christ and that their sanctification will come through the Spirit and their belief in the truth. The men then link this truth to the Old Testament promise that God would choose a people for Himself, and for His glory. For the Bible nerds listening, you will love the discussion on “firstfruits”. They conclude the podcast with encouragement that the truth of eternity with Christ in our future, will help us persevere through the trials we face now.
