1 Thessalonians 1:4; 1 Thessalonians 1:5; 1 Thessalonians 2:1; 1 Thessalonians 2:2; 1 Thessalonians 2:5; 1 Thessalonians 2:11; 1 Thessalonians 2:17; 1 Thessalonians 3:3; 1 Thessalonians 3:4; 1 Thessalonians 3:6; 1 Thessalonians 3:10; 1 Thessalonians 4:2; 1 Thessalonians 4:4; 1 Thessalonians 4:5; 1 Thessalonians 5:2; 1 Thessalonians 5:12

1 Thessalonians 1:4

4 For we know, brothers and sisters loved by God, that he has chosen you,

1 Thessalonians 1:5

5 because our gospel came to you not simply with words but also with power, with the Holy Spirit and deep conviction. You know how we lived among you for your sake.

1 Thessalonians 2:1

1 You know, brothers and sisters, that our visit to you was not without results.

1 Thessalonians 2:2

2 We had previously suffered and been treated outrageously in Philippi, as you know, but with the help of our God we dared to tell you his gospel in the face of strong opposition.

1 Thessalonians 2:5

5 You know we never used flattery, nor did we put on a mask to cover up greed—God is our witness.

1 Thessalonians 2:11

11 For you know that we dealt with each of you as a father deals with his own children,

1 Thessalonians 2:17

17 But, brothers and sisters, when we were orphaned by being separated from you for a short time (in person, not in thought), out of our intense longing we made every effort to see you.

1 Thessalonians 3:3

3 so that no one would be unsettled by these trials. For you know quite well that we are destined for them.

1 Thessalonians 3:4

4 In fact, when we were with you, we kept telling you that we would be persecuted. And it turned out that way, as you well know.

1 Thessalonians 3:6

6 But Timothy has just now come to us from you and has brought good news about your faith and love. He has told us that you always have pleasant memories of us and that you long to see us, just as we also long to see you.

1 Thessalonians 3:10

10 Night and day we pray most earnestly that we may see you again and supply what is lacking in your faith.

1 Thessalonians 4:2

2 For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus.

1 Thessalonians 4:4

4 that each of you should learn to control your own body in a way that is holy and honorable,

1 Thessalonians 4:5

5 not in passionate lust like the pagans, who do not know God;

1 Thessalonians 5:2

2 for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night.

1 Thessalonians 5:12

12 Now we ask you, brothers and sisters, to acknowledge those who work hard among you, who care for you in the Lord and who admonish you.
