For
yourselves
,
brethren
,
know
our
entrance
in
unto
you
,
that
it
was
not
in
vain
:
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:2
@
But
even
after that we had suffered
before
,
and
were shamefully
entreated
,
as
ye
know
,
at
Philippi
, we were
bold
in
our
God
to
speak
unto
you
the
gospel
of
God
with
much
contention
.
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:3
@
For
our
exhortation
was
not
of
deceit
,
nor
of
uncleanness
,
nor
in
guile
:
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:4
@
But
as
we were
allowed
of
God
to be put in
trust
with the
gospel
, even
so
we
speak
;
not
as
pleasing
men
,
but
God
, which
trieth
our
hearts
.
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:5
@
For
neither
at any
time
used
we
flattering
words
,
as
ye
know
,
nor
a
cloke
of
covetousness
;
God
is
witness
:
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:6
@
Nor
of
men
sought
we
glory
,
neither
of
you
,
nor
yet
of
others
, when we
might
have
been
burdensome
,
as
the
apostles
of
Christ
.
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:7
@
But
we
were
gentle
among
you
, even
as
a
nurse
cherisheth
her
children
:
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:8
@
So
being affectionately
desirous
of
you
, we were
willing
to have
imparted
unto
you
,
not
the
gospel
of
God
only
,
but
also
our
own
souls
,
because
ye
ere
dear
unto
us
.
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:9
@
For
ye
remember
,
brethren
,
our
labour
and
travail
:
for
labouring
night
and
day
,
because
we
would
not
be
chargeable
unto
any
of
you
, we
preached
unto
you
the
gospel
of
God
.
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:10
@
Ye
are
witnesses
,
and
God
also,
how
holily
and
justly
and
unblameably
we behaved
ourselves
among
you
that
believe
:
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:11
@
As
ye
know
how
we
exhorted
and
comforted
and
charged
every
one
of
you
,
as
a
father
doth
his
children
,
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:12
@
That
ye
would
walk
worthy
of
God
, who hath
called
you
unto
his
kingdom
and
glory
.
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:13
@ For
this
cause
also
thank
we
God
without
ceasing
,
because
, when ye
received
the
word
of
God
which ye
heard
of
us
, ye
received
it
not
as the
word
of
men
,
but
as
it
is
in
truth
, the
word
of
God
,
which
effectually
worketh
also
in
you
that
believe
.
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:14
@
For
ye
,
brethren
,
became
followers
of the
churches
of
God
which
in
Judaea
are
in
Christ
Jesus
:
for
ye
also
have
suffered
like
things
of
your
own
countrymen
,
even
as
they
have
of
the
Jews
:
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:15
@ 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
:
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:16
@
Forbidding
us
to
speak
to the
Gentiles
that
they might be
saved
,
to
fill
up
their
sins
alway
:
for
the
wrath
is
come
upon
them
to
the
uttermost
.
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:17
@
But
we
,
brethren
, being
taken
from
you
for
a
short
time
in
presence
,
not
in
heart
,
endeavoured
the more
abundantly
to
see
your
face
with
great
desire
.
strkjv@1Thessalonians:2:18
@
Wherefore
we
would
have
come
unto
you
,
even
I
Paul
,
once
and
again
;
but
Satan
hindered
us
.

For
what
is
our
hope
,
or
joy

or
crown
of
rejoicing

Are
not
even
ye
in the
presence
of
our
Lord
Jesus
Christ
at
his
coming
?

ye
are
our
glory
and
joy
