We must always thank God for you, brothers. This is right, since your faith is flourishing and the love each one of you has for one another is increasing.

For truly God's justice must render back trouble to those who are troubling you,

You must not let anyone deceive you at all. For that is not until the rebellion takes place and the embodiment of disobedience makes his appearance??e who is doomed to destruction,

But we must always thank God for you, brothers loved by the Lord, because from the beginning God has chosen you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and through belief in the truth.

For you know well how you must imitate me. For I did not lead an idle or disorderly life among you;

For when I was with you, I gave you this direction, "If a person refuses to work, he must not be allowed to eat."

but we command such and exhort them in the Lord Jesus Christ, that with quietude working, they must eat their own bread.

But you, brothers, must never grow tired of doing right.

You must not regard him as an enemy but warn him as a brother.
