Exhortation 1 Thessalonians 2:1-12

Exhortation We all need exhortation/encouragement in the faith. God expects us to exhort one another – Hebrews 3:13, “but exhort one another day by day, so long as it is called Today; lest any one of you be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin” Hebrews 10:25, “not forsaking our own assembling together, as the custom of some is, but exhorting (one another); and so much the more, as ye see the day drawing nigh.”

Exhortation We all need exhortation/encouragement in the faith. God expects us to receive exhortation – Hebrews 13:22, “But I exhort you, brethren, bear with the word of exhortation, for I have written unto you in few words.”
