Satan Works Against the Church -- 1 Thess. 2:17-3:5

"Who is Satan and what is he doing in the world in which we live?" is the question we address in this sermon 1 Thessalonians 2:17-3:5. The answer is simple: Satan is a real, personal being who consistently opposes God and His people. Specifically, Satan hindered Paul's return to Thessalonica, afflicted the apostles and the Thessalonians with suffering, and tempted them all to give up their faith in Christ. He still does the same thing today.
