Chapter 3 Wherefore, when we could no
longer forbear, we thought it good to be

00:05.260 --> 00:09.640
left at Athens alone, and sent Timotheus
our brother and minister of God,

00:09.900 --> 00:13.880
and our fellow labourer in the gospel of
Christ, to establish you, and to comfort

00:13.880 --> 00:14.980
you concerning your faith.

00:15.520 --> 00:19.880
That no man should be moved by these
afflictions, for yourselves know that we

00:19.880 --> 00:20.960
are appointed thereunto.

00:21.520 --> 00:25.080
For verily, when we were with you,
we told you before that we should suffer

00:25.080 --> 00:28.280
tribulation, even as it came to pass,
and ye know.

00:28.980 --> 00:33.280
For this cause, when I could no longer
forbear, I sent to know your faith,

00:33.680 --> 00:37.460
lest by some means the tempter have
tempted you, and our labour be in vain.

00:38.080 --> 00:42.440
But now when Timotheus came from you unto
us, and brought us good tidings of your

00:42.440 --> 00:47.200
faith and charity, and that ye have good
remembrance of us always, desiring greatly

00:47.200 --> 00:49.500
to see us, as we also to see you.

00:50.200 --> 00:54.260
Therefore, brethren, we were comforted
over you in all our affliction and

00:54.260 --> 00:55.740
distress by your faith.

00:55.740 --> 00:59.360
For now we live, if ye stand fast in the
Lord.

01:00.020 --> 01:02.360
For what thanks can we render to God again
for you?

01:02.560 --> 01:07.380
For all the joy wherewith we joy for your
sakes before our God, night and day

01:07.380 --> 01:11.180
praying exceedingly that we might see your
face, and might perfect that which is

01:11.180 --> 01:12.100
lacking in your faith.

01:13.020 --> 01:18.540
Now God himself, and our Father,
and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way

01:18.540 --> 01:19.080
unto you.

01:19.080 --> 01:23.940
And the Lord make you to increase and
abound in love, one toward another,

01:24.300 --> 01:27.460
and toward all men, even as we do toward
you.

01:28.180 --> 01:32.180
To the end he may establish your hearts
unblameable in holiness before God,

01:32.440 --> 01:37.240
even our Father, at the coming of our Lord
Jesus Christ, with all his saints.
