Respect
~ “And
we urge you, brethren, [1] to recognize those who labor among you, and
are over you in the Lord [shepherds] and admonish you, and to [2] esteem
them very highly [3] in love for their work’s sake. Be at peace
among yourselves” (1 Thessalonians 5:12-13). …
Groups
~ … “Now we exhort
you, brethren, [1] warn those who are unruly, [2] comfort the fainthearted,
[3] uphold the weak, be patient with all. See that no one renders evil
for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good both for yourselves and for
all” (1 Thessalonians 5:14-15).
Service
~ “Now we exhort
you, brethren, [1] warn those who are unruly, comfort the fainthearted, [2]
uphold the weak, be patient with all. See that no one renders evil for
evil to anyone, but always [3] pursue what is good both for yourselves
and for all” (1 Thessalonians 5:14-15). …
Conclusion ~ … “Rejoice always, pray without ceasing,
in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.
Do not quench the Spirit. Do not despise prophecies. Test all things; hold fast
what is good. Abstain from every form of evil” (1 Thessalonians 5:16-22).
