Apostol § 268

1 Thessalonians 3:9–13

Brethren, what thanks can we render to God for you, for all the joy with which we rejoice for your sake before our God, night and day praying exceedingly that we may see your face and perfect what is lacking in your faith? Now may our God and Father Himself, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto you. And may the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all, even as we do toward you, so that He may establish your hearts blameless in holiness before our God and Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all His saints.
