Sermon Central
2 Thessalonians 3
1For the rest, brethren, pray for us, that the word of the Lord may run and be glorified, even as also with you;
2and that we may be delivered from bad and evil men, for faith [is] not [the portion] of all.
3But the Lord is faithful, who shall establish you and keep [you] from evil.
4But we trust in the Lord as to you, that the things which we enjoin, ye both do and will do.
5But the Lord direct your hearts into the love of
6Now we enjoin you, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye withdraw from every brother walking disorderly and not according to the instruction which he received from us.
7For ye know yourselves how ye ought to imitate us, because we have not walked disorderly among you;
8nor have we eaten bread from any one without cost; but in toil and hardship working night and day not to be chargeable to any one of you:
9not that we have not the right, but that we might give ourselves as an example to you, in order to your imitating us.
10For also when we were with you we enjoined you this, that if any man does not like to work, neither let him eat.
11For we hear that [there are] some walking among you disorderly, not working at all, but busybodies.
12Now such we enjoin and exhort in [the] Lord Jesus Christ, that working quietly they eat their own bread.
13But ye, brethren, do not faint in well-doing.
14But if any one obey not our word by the letter, mark that man, and do not keep company with him, that he may be ashamed of himself;
15and do not esteem him as an enemy, but admonish [him] as a brother.
16But the Lord of peace himself give you peace continually in every way. The Lord [be] with you all.
17The salutation by the hand of me, Paul, which is [the] mark in every letter; so I write.
18The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all.
