Verse in context — 1 Thessalonians 3
1
Therefore, when we couldn't stand it any longer, we thought it good to be left behind at Athens alone,
2
and sent Timothy, our brother and God's servant in the Good News of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your faith;
3
that no one be moved by these afflictions. For you know that we are appointed to this task.
4
For most certainly, when we were with you, we told you beforehand that we are to suffer affliction, even as it happened, and you know.

For this cause I also, when I couldn't stand it any longer, sent that I might know your faith, for fear that by any means the tempter had tempted you, and our labor would have been in vain.
