Today, in our ongoing series about the letters the apostle Paul wrote to the believers at Thessalonica, Pastor Marc Sharp continues the discussion about the second coming of Jesus. The Thessalonians naturally had questions about the return of Jesus. They wanted dates and a timeline. What should they expect, and when should they expect it? The Thessalonians were not unlike many Christians today. Books predicting the details and chronology of the end are often best-sellers . The disciples asked for the same details from Jesus. But Jesus didn’t give them the specific answers they asked for. Why? Why would he not be very specific about such a major event as his return?
