1 Thessalonians 1:5-7

Revised Geneva Translation

⁵ For our Gospel did not come to you in word only, but in power also and in the Holy Ghost and much certainty (as you know how we behaved among you for your sakes).

⁶ And you became followers of us and of the Lord and received the Word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost,

⁷ so that you were examples to all believers in Macedonia and in Achaia.
