1 Thessalonians 2:5-6, 11
1 Thessalonians 2:5-6 TPT
God is our witness that when we came to encourage you, we never once used cunning compliments as a pretext for greed, nor did we crave the praises of men, whether you or others.
1 Thessalonians 2:11 TPT
And you know how affectionately we treated each one of you, like a loving father cares for his own children.
