chapter 14
Unity, Freedom, and Christ’s Return
Paul’s Letters to Thessalonica and Corinth
The time we live in will not last long. . . . For the whole frame
of this world is passing away. 1 Corinthians 7:29, 31
Paul’s early letters are dominated by his escha-
tology. Convinced that the Messiah’s death and
resurrection have inaugurated End time, Paul
strives to achieve several related goals. Traveling
from city to city, he establishes small cells of be-
lievers whom he calls to a “new life in Christ.” He
argues that Jesus’ crucifi xion has brought free-
dom from both Torah observance and the power
of sin, and he emphasizes the necessity of
leading an ethically pure life while awaiting
Christ’s return. In his letters to the young Greek
churches at Thessalonica and Corinth, Paul un-
derscores the nearness of the Parousia —the
Second Coming—an event that he believes to
be imminent. Much of Paul’s advice to these
congregations is based on his desire that they
achieve unity and purity before Christ reappears.
While he is attempting to keep believers
faithful to the high ideals of Christian practice,
Paul also fi nds himself battling opponents who
question the correctness of his teaching and/or
his apostolic authority. According to Luke, an
apostle was one whom Jesus had personally
called to follow him and who had witnessed the
Resurrection (Acts 1:21–22). Not only had Paul
not known the earthly Jesus; he had cruelly
Key Topics/Themes The dominant theme of
Paul’s letters to Thessalonica and Corinth is that
the eschaton is near: Paul expects to witness
Jesus’ return and the resurrection of the dead in
his lifetime (1 Thess . 4:13–18). However, believers
must not waste time speculating about the
projected date of the Parousia (1 Thess . 5:1–3).
Paul’s letters to Corinth are aimed at
healing serious divisions in the newly founded
church there. Paul urges members to give up
their destructive competitiveness and work
toward unity of belief and purpose. Their
cooperation is essential because the remaining
time is so short. His most important topics
include (1) differences between human and
divinely revealed wisdom (1:10–3:23), (2)
Christian ethics and responsibilities (5:1–11:1),
(3) behavior at the communion meal (11:17–34),
valuing gifts of the Spirit ( chs . 12–14), and
(4) the resurrection of the dead ( ch . 15).
A composite work composed of several
letters or letter fragments, 2 Corinthians
shows Paul defending his apostolic authority
(2 Cor . 10–13); chapters 1–9, apparently written
after chapters 10–13, describe his reconciliation
with the church at Corinth.

386 Six canonical letters in which the author explicitly .docxlorainedeserre
386
Six canonical letters in which the author explicitly
identifi es himself as Paul, Apostle to the Gentiles,
contain discrepancies that cause scholars to
question their Pauline authorship. Two of the
letters—2 Thessalonians and Colossians—are
still vigorously disputed, with a large minority
championing their authenticity. But an over-
whelming scholarly majority deny that Paul wrote
the four others—Ephesians, 1 and 2 Timothy, and
Titus. The latter three are called the pastoral epis-
tles because the writer—as a pastor or shepherd—
offers guidance and advice to his fl ock, the church.
c h a p t e r 1 7
Continuing the Pauline Tradition
2 Thessalonians, Colossians, Ephesians, and the Pastoral Epistles
Stand fi rm . . . and hold fast to the traditions which you have
learned from us by word or letter. 2 Thessalonians 2:15
Keep before you an outline of the sound teaching which you heard from me. . . .
Guard the treasure [apostolic tradition] put into our charge. 2 Timothy 1:13–14
Key Topics/Themes Paul’s continuing infl uence
on the church was so great after his death that
various Pauline disciples composed letters in his
name and spirit, claiming his authority to settle
new issues besetting the Christian community.
Whereas a minority of scholars defend Pauline
authorship of 2 Thessalonians and Colossians, a
large majority are certain that he did not write
Ephesians, 1 or 2 Timothy, or Titus.
Repeating themes from Paul’s genuine
letter to the Thessalonians, 2 Thessalonians
reinterprets Paul’s original eschatology,
asserting that a number of traditional
apocalyptic “signs” must precede the eschaton .
In Colossians, a close Pauline disciple
emphasizes Jesus’ identifi cation with the cosmic
power and wisdom by and for which the
universe was created. The divine “secret” is
revealed as Christ’s Spirit dwelling in the
believer. A deutero - Pauline composition,
Ephesians contains ideas similar to those in
Colossians, revising and updating Pauline
concepts about God’s universal plan of salvation
for both Jews and Gentiles and about believers’
spiritual warfare with supernatural evil.
Writing to Timothy and Titus as symbols of
a new generation of Christians, an anonymous
disciple (known as the Pastor) warns his
readers against false teachings (heresy). He
urges them to adhere strictly to the original
apostolic traditions, supported by the Hebrew
Bible and the church.

Slide 1: Title: Exploring the Mindfulness: Understanding Its Benefits
Slide 2: Introduction to Mindfulness
Mindfulness, defined as the conscious, non-judgmental observation of the present moment, has deep roots in Buddhist meditation practice but has gained significant popularity in the Western world in recent years. In today's society, filled with distractions and constant stimuli, mindfulness offers a valuable tool for regaining inner peace and reconnecting with our true selves.

Slide 3: Benefits of Mindfulness for Mental Well-being
Practicing mindfulness can help reduce stress and anxiety levels, improving overall quality of life.

Regular mindfulness practice can improve our ability to concentrate and focus our attention on the present moment.

Mindfulness can help us better understand others and improve communication, leading to healthier relationships.
By focusing on the present moment and being fully attentive, mindfulness helps build stronger and more authentic connections with others.
Mindfulness teaches us how to be present for others in difficult times, leading to increased compassion and understanding.

Mindfulness has the power to change our perspective and way of perceiving the world, leading to deeper se
In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.
