Bible (KJV) NT 14: 2 Thessalonians
King James Version
Read by David Lawrence
The Second Epistle of Paul to the Thessalonians, often referred to as Second Thessalonians and written 2 Thessalonians, is a book from the New Testament of the Christian Bible.
The traditional view is that the second epistle to the Thessalonians was probably written from Corinth not many months after the first. Apparently the first letter was misunderstood, especially regarding the second advent of Christ. The Thessalonians had embraced the idea that Paul had taught that "the day of Christ was at hand", that Christ's coming was about to occur. This error is corrected (2:1-12), and the apostle announces what first must take place before the end times. The "Great Apostasy" is first mentioned here as is the "Katechon".
A passage from this book reading "For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat", (2 Thess. 3:10), was later adapted by Vladimir Lenin as an adage of the Soviet Union, He who does not work, neither shall he eat.

Reviews
Heidi Arnosdatter
Paul's 2nd epistle to the Thessalonians encouraging them in the midst of great persecution, to be patient and draw encouragement from Christ's 2nd coming and God's sure judgement of unbelievers. The rapture of the church, the day of Christ- judgement, and the events that must first happen: falling away from God of mankind, and the revealing of the satanic Antichrist are told in detail. Paul thanks God for their salvation and sanctification, and he prays for God to comfort and strengthen them. He also instructs them to once again work and not be busy bodies, and live orderly and peacefully for God's glory.
