Chapter 1
- Paul, Silvanus, and
Timothy,
to the church of the Thessalonians in God our Father and the Lord Jesus
Christ:
- Grace to you and peace from God our
Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Cor. 1:3)
- We are bound to thank God always
for you, brethren, as it is fitting, because your faith grows
exceedingly, and the love of every one of you all abounds toward each
other,
- so that we ourselves boast of you
among the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your
persecutions and tribulations that you endure,
- which is manifest evidence of the
righteous judgement of God, that you may be counted worthy of the
kingdom of God, for which you also suffer;
- since it is a righteous thing with
God to repay with tribulation those who trouble you, (Ps. 119:132)

- and with all unrighteous
deception among
those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth,
that
they might be saved. (Prov. 4:6;
1 Cor. 16:22; 2 Cor. 2:15)
-
-
- But we are bound to give
thanks to God
always for you, brethren beloved by the Lord, because God from the
beginning
chose you for salvation through sanctification by the Spirit and belief
in the truth, (Eph. 1:12)
- to which He called you by
our gospel,
for the obtaining of the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Chapter 3
- Fonally, brethren, pray for us
that the word of the Lord may have free course and be glorified, just
as it is with you,
- and that we may be delivered from
unreasonable and wicked men; for not all have faith. (Acts
28:24; Rom. 15:31)
