1 Thessalonians 3:3 Context
1Wherefore when wee could no longer forbeare, wee thought it good to bee left at Athens alone: 2And sent Timotheus our brother and minister of God, and our fellow labourer in the Gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith: 3That no man should be mooued by these afflictions: for your selues know that we are appointed therunto. 4For verily when wee were with you, we told you before, that we should suffer tribulation, euen as it came to passe and ye know. 5For this cause when I could no longer forbeare, I sent to know your faith, lest by some meanes the tempter haue tempted you, and our labor be in vaine.
