2 Thessalonians 1:2 In-Context

1 From Paul, Silvanus, and Timothy:

2 To the church of the Thessalonians, which is in God our Father, and in the Lord Jesus Christ.Grace and peace to all of you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

3 Brothers and sisters, we must always thank God for you. This is only right because your faithfulness is growing by leaps and bounds, and the love that all of you have for each other is increasing.

4 That's why we ourselves are bragging about you in God's churches. We tell about your endurance and faithfulness in all the harassments and trouble that you have put up with.

5 This shows that God's judgment is right, and that you will be considered worthy of God's kingdom for which you are suffering.
