2 Thessalonians 1:6-10 (NASB)

6 For after all it is only right for God to repay with affliction those who afflict you, 7 and to give relief to you who are afflicted, along with us, when the Lord Jesus will be revealed from heaven with His mighty angels 8 in flaming fire, dealing out retribution to those who do not know God, and to those who do not obey the gospel of our Lord Jesus. 9 These people will pay the penalty of eternal destruction, away from the presence of the Lord and from the glory of His power, 10 when He comes to be glorified among His saints on that day, and to be marveled at among all who have believedā€”because our testimony to you was believed.

When the Lord Jesus returns, He will bring true justice upon all mankind.

1) The God of Justice will punish willfully ignorant, disobedient unbelievers with their future penalty (1:6-9)

2) The God of Justice will bless faithful, suffering believers with their future reward (1:7, 10)
