1 Thessalonians 2:16

The Thessalonians' Response To Paul's Message

¹⁵ Who both killed the Lord Jesus and their own prophets, and have persecuted us: and they please not God, and are contrary to all men. ¹⁶ Forbidding us to speak to the Gentiles, that they may be saved, to fill up their sins always: but wrath is come upon them to the uttermost. ¹⁷ But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time, in presence, not in heart, laboured with great desire the more abundantly to see your face.
