2 Thessalonians 1:1-2. Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
All nations have their special forms of salutation, and this is the Christian’s greeting to his fellow-Christians, "Grace unto you, and peace." How much there is in this prayer! "grace" - the free favor of God, the active energy of the divine power; and "peace" - reconciliation to God, peace of conscience, peace with all men. My brethren, what better things could I desire for you, and what better things could you wish for your best beloved friends than these, "Grace unto you, and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ?"
