'Lord' in the Bible

Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy:To the church of the Thessalonians in God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.Grace to you and peace.

We recall, in the presence of our God and Father, your work of faith, labor of love, and endurance of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ,

and you became imitators of us and of the Lord when, in spite of severe persecution, you welcomed the message with joy from the Holy Spirit.

who killed both the Lord Jesus and the prophets and persecuted us; they displease God and are hostile to everyone,

For who is our hope or joy or crown of boasting in the presence of our Lord Jesus at His coming? Is it not you?

For now we live, if you stand firm in the Lord.

Now may our God and Father Himself, and our Lord Jesus, direct our way to you.

And may the Lord cause you to increase and overflow with love for one another and for everyone, just as we also do for you.

May He make your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father at the coming of our Lord Jesus with all His saints. Amen.

Finally then, brothers, we ask and encourage you in the Lord Jesus, that as you have received from us how you must walk and please God—as you are doing—do so even more.

For you know what commands we gave you through the Lord Jesus.

This means one must not transgress against and defraud his brother in this matter, because the Lord is an avenger of all these offenses, as we also previously told and warned you.

For we say this to you by a revelation from the Lord: We who are still alive at the Lord’s coming will certainly have no advantage over those who have fallen asleep.

For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the archangel’s voice, and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.

Then we who are still alive will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and so we will always be with the Lord.

For you yourselves know very well that the Day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night.

For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

Now we ask you, brothers, to give recognition to those who labor among you and lead you in the Lord and admonish you,

Now may the God of peace Himself sanctify you completely. And may your spirit, soul, and body be kept sound and blameless for the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I charge you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the brothers.

The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
