1Th 5:14 Now we exhort you, brethren. The duties named in this section are those of the elders especially, but in a lesser sense the duty of all. Warn them that are unruly. Those who are wayward, inconsistent, and disposed to follow their own will. Comfort the feebleminded. Timid ones, who are easily discouraged by persecution, or cast down by trouble. Support the weak. Those weak in faith.
Claude B. Victory's comment on 2013-02-15 04:21:53:
1 Thessalonians 5:14 is a word straight from the throne of God. We are not all strong, we are not all weak. God died for all creatures, the whole household of faith, which has a diversity of characters and personalities. Love conquers all. Patience, patience, patience.. God has control over himself, which is divine patience. What if God had mood swings and was not patient with his creation. Where should I stay, and what would happen?
