With Regard to the Coming of our Lord, Part 1: The Departure

Paul's purpose in writing this letter had to do with questions the Thessalonian church had regarding end times events Paul had taught them about previously. Here he clears up some confusion that was created by false teaching. In this sermon, dealing specifically with verses 1-3a, Pastor Matt makes a case that Paul is addressing the rapture of the church, and why that provides us hope.
