1Thessalonians:2:17-3:5
jub@1Thessalonians:2:17 @ But we, brethren, being taken from you for a short time in presence, not in heart, endeavoured the more abundantly with great desire to see your face.
jub@1Thessalonians:2:18 @ Therefore we would have come unto you, even I, Paul, once and again, but Satan hindered us.
jub@1Thessalonians:2:19 @ For what is our hope or joy or crown of rejoicing? [Is it] not you in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?
jub@1Thessalonians:2:20 @ For ye are our glory and joy.:
jub@1Thessalonians:3:1 @ Therefore when we could wait no longer, we agreed to remain in Athens alone
jub@1Thessalonians:3:2 @ and sent Timothy, our brother and minister of God [and our fellowlabourer] in the gospel of the Christ, to confirm you and to exhort you in your faith,
jub@1Thessalonians:3:3 @ that no one should be moved in these tribulations, for you know that we are appointed for this.
jub@1Thessalonians:3:4 @ For even when we were with you, we told you in advance that we must pass through tribulations, even as it has come to pass, and ye know.
jub@1Thessalonians:3:5 @ For this cause I, also, not waiting any longer, have sent to know your faith, lest by some means the tempter has tempted you and our labour is in vain.
