Thirsting Souls Bible Teaching

(2Th 2:16)  “Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father, which hath loved us, and hath given us everlasting consolation and good hope through grace, (17)  Comfort your hearts, and stablish you in every good word and work.”   I draw you attention to the word, “grace”. It means “favor received but not deserved”. Because of circumstances, many believe they deserve better from God. Truth: we deserve the agonies of hell for eternity. It is the grace of God that we are not there right now. If you are saved, it is not because you merit it, but because God is merciful. The Lord Jesus honestly said to us: (Joh_16:33) “These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.”
