But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord because God chose you as the first fruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth. 2 Thessalonians 2:13 Have you ever thought about giving God thanks for choosing you? We ought too!! We should give him thanks because he chose us first. Then through salvation, we have the option to choose him back. We must accept His gift of salvation. although we have an option to refuse it. I don’t recommend that though!! Paul is encouraging the Thessalonians that God chose them from the beginning. Sanctification is the process…
