rwbs - 1Thessalonians:2:3-12

rwbs@1Thessalonians:2:3 @ For our exhortation not from deceit, nor from uncleanness, nor in guile:

rwbs@1Thessalonians:2:4 @ But as we were allowed by God to be put in trust with the gospel, even so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, who trieth our hearts.

rwbs@1Thessalonians:2:5 @ For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God witness:

rwbs@1Thessalonians:2:6 @ Nor from men sought we glory, neither from you, nor from others, when we might have been burdensome, as the apostles of Christ. (note:)been…: or, used authority(:note)

rwbs@1Thessalonians:2:7 @ But we were gentle among you, even as a nurse cherisheth her children:

rwbs@1Thessalonians:2:8 @ So being affectionately desirous of you, we were willing to have imparted to you, not the gospel of God only, but also our own souls, because ye were dear to us.

rwbs@1Thessalonians:2:9 @ For ye remember, brethren, our labour and toil: for labouring night and day, because we would not be chargeable to any of you, we preached to you the gospel of God.

rwbs@1Thessalonians:2:10 @ Ye witnesses, and God, how devoutly and justly and unblameably we behaved ourselves among you that believe:

rwbs@1Thessalonians:2:11 @ As ye know how we exhorted and encouraged and charged each one of you, as a father his children,

rwbs@1Thessalonians:2:12 @ That ye would walk worthy of God, who hath called you into his kingdom and glory.
