1 Thessalonians 2:1
For you yourselves, brothers, are conscious that our coming among you was not without effect:

--------------------

1 Thessalonians 2:2
But after we had first undergone much pain and been cruelly attacked as you saw, at Philippi, by the help of God we gave you the good news without fear, though everything was against us.

1 Thessalonians 2:3
For our witness does not come from error or from an unclean heart or from deceit:

1 Thessalonians 2:4
But even as the good news was given to us by the approval of God, so we give it out; not as pleasing men, but God by whom our hearts are tested.

1 Thessalonians 2:5
For it is common knowledge among you that we never made use of smooth-sounding false words, and God is witness that at no time were we secretly desiring profit for ourselves,

1 Thessalonians 2:9
For you have the memory, my brothers, of our trouble and care; how, working night and day, so that we might not be a trouble to any of you, we gave you the good news of God.

1 Thessalonians 2:11
Even as you saw how, like a father with his children, we were teaching and comforting you all, and giving witness,

Because our good news came to you, not in word only, but in power, and in the Holy Spirit, so that you were completely certain of it; even as you saw what our behaviour to you was like from our love to you.

1 Thessalonians 1:6
And you took us and the Lord as your example, after the word had come to you in much trouble, with joy in the Holy Spirit;

1 Thessalonians 1:7
So that you became an example to all those who have faith in Christ in Macedonia and Achaia.

1 Thessalonians 1:8
For not only was the word of the Lord sounding out from you in Macedonia and Achaia, but in every place your faith in God is made clear; so that we have no need to say anything.

1 Thessalonians 1:9
For they themselves give the news of how we came among you; and how you were turned from images to God, to the worship of a true and living God,

1 Thessalonians 1:10
Waiting for his Son from heaven, who came back from the dead, even Jesus, our Saviour from the wrath to come.

2 Thessalonians 3:1
For the rest, my brothers, let there be prayer for us that the word of the Lord may go forward with increasing glory, even as it does with you;

-----

1 Thessalonians 2:13
And for this cause we still give praise to God, that, when the word came to your ears through us, you took it, not as the word of man, but, as it truly is, the word of God, which has living power in you who have faith.

1 Thessalonians 2:14
For you, my brothers, took as your examples the churches of God which are in Judaea in Christ Jesus; because you underwent the same things from your countrymen as they did from the Jews;

1 Thessalonians 2:15
Who put to death the Lord Jesus and the prophets, violently driving us out; who are unpleasing to God and against all men;

1 Thessalonians 2:16
Who, to make the measure of their sins complete, kept us from giving the word of salvation to the Gentiles: but the wrath of God is about to come on them in the fullest degree.

Ephesians 5:6
Do not be turned from the right way by foolish words; for because of these things the punishment of God comes on those who do not put themselves under him.

-----

1 Thessalonians 3:5
For this reason, when I was no longer able to keep quiet, I sent to get news of your faith, fearing that you might be tested by the Evil One and that our work might come to nothing.

And I said, I have undergone weariness for nothing, I have given my strength for no purpose or profit: but still the Lord will take up my cause, and my God will give me my reward.

1 Corinthians 15:10
But by the grace of God, I am what I am: and his grace which was given to me has not been for nothing; for I did more work than all of them; though not I, but the grace of God which was with me.

Galatians 2:2
And I went up by revelation; and I put before them the good news which I was preaching among the Gentiles, but privately before those who were of good name, so that the work which I was or had been doing might not be without effect.

Galatians 4:11
I am in fear of you, that I may have been working for you to no purpose.

Offering the word of life; so that I may have glory in you in the day of Christ, because my running was not for nothing and my work was not without effect.
