Gospel Suffering

1 Thessalonians 2:14-16

For you, brothers and sisters, became imitators of God's churches in Judea, which are in Christ Jesus: you suffered from your own people the same things those churches suffered from the Jews who killed the Lord Jesus and the prophets and also drove us out. They displease God and are hostile to everyone in their effort to keep us from speaking to the Gentiles so that they may be saved. In this way they always heap up their sins to the limit. The wrath of God has come upon them at last. (NIVUK)

Paul had previously commended the Thessalonians for allowing God's Word to work in their lives (1 Thessalonians 2:13). That was particularly demonstrated when they were under persecution. God's Word sustained them when they were pursued and harassed by religious people who hated Jesus. Opposition did not stop them from believing, instead it affirmed their faith; as it did for the churches in Judea.
