Waiting for Christ's Return

Waiting for Christ's return is not a passive matter of sitting back and doing nothing, as some of the early Christians thought. This Paul makes clear in his first letter to the Thessalonians.

Herman Veldkamp focuses on the highlights of this letter in 21 short chapters, conveying to us something of the tense expectation that fills the lives of those who live for Christ and long for His final triumph. Paul opens his letter by giving thanks. He then offers some practical advice and sets the Thessalonians straight on their misconceptions about the last things. Veldkamp gives us a vivid picture of the struggles of the Thessalonian Christians. The message hits home, for many of the their failures and misconceptions are ours as well.
