Popular Bible Verses from 1 Thessalonians 5

Share

Always be happy. Pray at all times. Whatever may happen to you, continue to thank God. God wants you to do that, because you belong to Christ Jesus.

I pray that God will help you to be completely good, as his people should be. He is the one who gives us peace in our minds. May he take care of you in every way, in your spirit, in your soul and in your body. Then you will not be guilty of anything, when our Lord Jesus Christ returns. God has chosen you to be his people. We can trust him to do what he has promised to do. So he will do all this for you.

If someone does something bad against you, do not do anything bad against them in return. Never do that. Instead, always try to do good things that will help each other and help everyone else.

Because of that, you should help each other to become stronger as believers. I know that you are already doing that.

Friends, you must warn lazy people. Tell them that they should work. If people are afraid, help them to be brave. If people are weak, take care of them. Be patient with everyone.

God did not choose us as his people so that he could be angry with us. He chose us so that he could save us because of what our Lord Jesus Christ has done.

All of you are people who belong to the light and to the day. We who are believers do not belong to the night or to the dark.
