Today we are asking the question: Why did Paul write this letter? First, it isvery obvious that Paul wrote this letter because the Holy Spirit of the livingGod inspired him to write it. God wanted this letter to become part of thecanon of Scripture—the Word of God that we have for us today.

God’splan was that this book—written to encourage believers during a difficult timein history—would also be a book that we would need today. It is part of theeternal Word of God. How about that? That is the number one reason Paul wrotethis book.
