Comfort Encourage Wherefore Words
1 Thessalonians 4
1. He exhorts them to go forward in all manner of godliness;
6. to live holily and justly;
9. to love one another;
11. and quietly to follow their own business;

Verse 18. - Wherefore comfort one another with these words; on the ground of that Divine revelation which I have made unto you.
