1 THESSALONIANS 5:14 — KING JAMES VERSION 0 0
“Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.”
And we urge you, brothers, admonish the idle, encourage the fainthearted, help the weak, be patient with them all — a fourfold exhortation addresses different spiritual conditions. The 'idle' (ataktos) need correction; the 'fainthearted' (oligopsychos) need encouragement; the 'weak' (asthenes) need support; all require patience (makrothymia). The community is a healing organism.
