42

And look, you have filled Jerusalem with your doctrine, and intend to bring this Man's blood on us!"

2 Thessalonians 1:7-92 Thessalonians 1:7-9

33We are bound to thank God always for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all abounds toward each other, 44so that we ourselves boast of you among the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that you endure,

52


55which is manifest evidence of the righteous judgment of God, that you may be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you also suffer; 66since it is a righteous thing with God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you,

53


77and to give you who are troubled rest with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with His mighty angels, 88in flaming fire taking vengeance on those who do not know God, and on those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.

54


99These shall be punished with everlasting destruction from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power, 1010when He comes, in that Day, to be glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who believe, because our testimony among you was believed.
