Four Main Themes of 1 Thess. 2:17 – 1 Thess. 3:13:
1. The faith of the Thessalonians is Paul’s main concern.
2. Suffering for Christ is to be expected by the believer.
3. God works in those who believe; so pray earnestly.
4. Paul’s love for the believers in Thessalonica is beautiful and reveals Christ’s love for His church.

Did God answer Paul’s prayer?
2 Thessalonians 1
3 We are obligated to thank God for you all the time, brothers, as is fitting, because your faith is growing more and more, and your love for one another is increasing.
