In this message, Dr. Carroll Marr unpacks 2 Thessalonians 2:13-17 to provide powerful encouragement for the struggling believer. Paul’s words to the young church in Thessalonica reveal two non-negotiable truths that sustain us through persecution and tough times: Remember God Loves You: Learn why God’s choice (divine election) and His unconditional agape love proves your salvation is settled, regardless of your current circumstances. Stand Firm in the Truth: We are called to set and hold to personal minimums—God’s standards—and not be shaken by the world’s pressure or compromise. Discover how to stand firm, refuse to bend, and find the strength to endure until you gain His promised glory.
