We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

Material success is no measure of spiritual health. Nor is apparent affluence any criterion of real godliness. And it is well for us that the Shepherd of our souls sees through this exterior and takes steps to set things right.

Day Of The Lord Or Day Of Chris

Day Of The Lord Or Day Of Chris

IS IT SUPPOSED TO BE “DAY OF THE LORD” OR “DAY OF CHRIST” IN 2THESSALONIANS 2:2?

Well, the textual criticism is real plain. The Textus Receptus says “Christ.” And the Westcott and Hort and Nestle’s and Aland and Metzger and Eusyppians say, “Lord.”

But, what’s the problem? Look at 2:1: “We beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” So, he said the day of Christ would be the day of the Lord anyway. It’s just another name for it.

Verse 1 said, “Our Lord Jesus Christ.”

That’s somebody who found something there and figured it would make better sense if it said, “Lord,” so he changed it to “Lord.”
