1:2 We always give thanks to God for all of
you and mention you in our prayers, constantly 1:3 remembering
before our God and Father your work of faith and labor of love and steadfastness
of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ. 1:4 For we know, brothers and sisters
[Gk brothers] beloved by God, that he has chosen you, 1:5 because our message
of the gospel came to you not in word only, but also in power and in the
Holy Spirit and with full conviction; just as you know what kind of persons
we proved to be among you for your sake.
1:6 And you became imitators of us and of the Lord, for in spite of persecution you received the word with joy inspired by the Holy Spirit, 1:7 so that you became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia. 1:8 For the word in Macedonia and Achaia, but also in every place your faith toward God has gone forth, so that we have no need to say anything. 1:9 For they themselves report about us what kind of a reception we had with you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve a living and true God, 1:10 and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, that is Jesus, who delivers us from the wrath to come. |
