  2. Did not find any Thessalonian Church names.

  3. Acts 17:11 These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.

  5. Title: “Be like the Thessalonian Church” Vindicate the Brethren at Thessalonica 1:7 SO That you became an example to all the believers in Macedonia and Achaia. 1:8 For the word of the Lord has sounded forth from you, not only in Macedonia and Achia, but also in every place your faith toward God has gone forth, so that we have no need to say anything.
