Trials & Temptations
1 Thessalonians 3:1-5
We sent Timothy to strengthen and encourage you in your faith, so that no one would be unsettled or shaken by these trials
1. Strength – companionship to overcome trials
We sent Timothy to strengthen you
NOT “oppressed by trials” because of companions
2. Encouragement – courage to overcome temptations
We sent Timothy to encourage you
NOT “overpowered by temptations” because of encouragers
3. Faith – confidence to overcome timidity
We sent Timothy to build up your faith
NOT “overwhelmed by timidity” or fear because of confidence
