1 Thessalonians 2 — Context

7

But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherishes her children:

8

So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted to you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because you were dear to us.

9

For you remember, brothers, our labor and travail: for laboring night and day, because we would not be chargeable to any of you, we preached to you the gospel of God.

10

You are witnesses, and God also, how piously and justly and blamelessly we behaved ourselves among you that believe:

11

As you know how we exhorted and comforted and charged every one of you, as a father does his children,

12

That you would walk worthy of God, who has called you to his kingdom and glory.

13

For this cause also thank we God without ceasing, because, when you received the word of God which you heard of us, you received it not as the word of men, but as it is in truth, the word of God, which effectually works also in you that believe.
