2 Thessalonians

2 Thessalonians 1:4–5

4That is why we boast among God’s churches about your perseverance and faith in the face of all the persecution and affliction you are enduring.

5All this is clear evidence of God’s righteous judgment. And so you will be counted worthy of the kingdom of God, for which you are suffering.
