1 Thessaloniciens 1.1

De la part de Paul, Silvain et Timothée à l'Eglise des Thessaloniciens qui est en Dieu le Père et dans le Seigneur Jésus-Christ : que la grâce et la paix vous soient données [de la part de Dieu notre Père et du Seigneur Jésus-Christ] !
Paul, et Silvain, et Timothée, à l'Église des Thessaloniciens, qui est en Dieu le Père et en Jésus Christ le Seigneur : que la grâce et la paix vous soient données !

Cette épître est considérée généralement comme celle qui a été la première, écrite par l’apôtre Paul. L'occasion semble en avoir été le compte-rendu positif de la fermeté de l'église à Thessalonique, quant à sa foi en l'Évangile. Cette épître manifeste l'affection et la confiance, de l’apôtre envers les Thessaloniciens ; elle insiste davantage, par rapport à d’autres épîtres, sur la pratique de la piété et la consolation qui en découle (avec toutefois moins d’enseignement de doctrine.)

La foi, l'amour, et la patience des Thessaloniciens, sont les signes évidents de leur « élection », manifestée dans la puissance avec laquelle l'Évangile est parvenu jusqu’à eux. (1 Thessaloniciens 1:1-5)
Les effets puissants et exemplaires de l’Évangile agissent sur leur cœur et leur vie. (1 Thessaloniciens 1:6-10)

Puisque toute bénédiction provient du ciel, nulle autre ne peut être espérée de la part des pécheurs, sauf quand elle est « agréée » par Dieu, en Christ.

Les meilleures bénédictions peuvent être attendues de Dieu : Il est notre Père, Christ étant Son Fils. Nous devons prier, non seulement pour nous-même, mais également pour les autres, en nous souvenant d'eux, sans cesse. Quand on rencontre une foi véritable chez un enfant de Dieu, on constate toujours les fruits de cette dernière ; elle affectera à la fois le cœur et la vie de cette personne. La foi travaille avec l’amour : elle se révèle elle-même dans notre amour envers Dieu et notre prochain.

Partout où se trouve une solide espérance de la vie éternelle, on voit apparaître parallèlement l'exercice de la patience ; cela traduit également une certaine sincérité de cœur dans tous nos actes, quand nous cherchons à être approuvés par Dieu. Nous pouvons reconnaître notre « élection spirituelle », si, non seulement nous témoignons des bénédictions divines, mais si nous ressentons également leur pouvoir dans notre cœur, anéantissant ainsi notre convoitise et nous sevrant du monde, en recherchant tout ce qui concerne le domaine céleste.

Si l'Esprit divin ne s’associe à la lecture de la Parole de Dieu, Il ne sera pour nous qu’une lettre morte. Les Thessaloniciens ont profité de cette « onction spirituelle » : la puissance du Saint-Esprit. Ils étaient totalement convaincus de la Véracité des Écritures, sans être ébranlés par diverses objections de doctrine, voire des doutes ; ils étaient disposés à tout laisser pour Christ et à tout risquer pour le salut de leur âme, étant assurés d’avoir la vie éternelle, selon la révélation de l'Évangile !

    • Actes 15

      27 We have sent therefore Judas and Silas, who themselves will also tell you the same things by word of mouth.
      32 Judas and Silas, also being prophets themselves, encouraged the brothers with many words, and strengthened them.
      33 After they had spent some time there, they were sent back with greetings from the brothers to the apostles.
      40 but Paul chose Silas, and went out, being commended by the brothers to the grace of God.

      Actes 16

      1 He came to Derbe and Lystra: and behold, a certain disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewess who believed; but his father was a Greek.
      2 The brothers who were at Lystra and Iconium gave a good testimony about him.
      3 Paul wanted to have him go out with him, and he took and circumcised him because of the Jews who were in those parts; for they all knew that his father was a Greek.
      19 But when her masters saw that the hope of their gain was gone, they seized Paul and Silas, and dragged them into the marketplace before the rulers.

      29 He called for lights and sprang in, and, fell down trembling before Paul and Silas,

      Actes 17

      1 Now when they had passed through Amphipolis and Apollonia, they came to Thessalonica, where there was a Jewish synagogue.
      2 Paul, as was his custom, went in to them, and for three Sabbath days reasoned with them from the Scriptures,
      3 explaining and demonstrating that the Christ had to suffer and rise again from the dead, and saying, "This Jesus, whom I proclaim to you, is the Christ."
      4 Some of them were persuaded, and joined Paul and Silas, of the devout Greeks a great multitude, and not a few of the chief women.
      5 But the unpersuaded Jews took along some wicked men from the marketplace, and gathering a crowd, set the city in an uproar. Assaulting the house of Jason, they sought to bring them out to the people.
      6 When they didn't find them, they dragged Jason and certain brothers before the rulers of the city, crying, "These who have turned the world upside down have come here also,
      7 whom Jason has received. These all act contrary to the decrees of Caesar, saying that there is another king, Jesus!"
      8 The multitude and the rulers of the city were troubled when they heard these things.
      9 When they had taken security from Jason and the rest, they let them go.
      11 Now these were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of the mind, examining the Scriptures daily to see whether these things were so.
      13 But when the Jews of Thessalonica had knowledge that the word of God was proclaimed by Paul at Beroea also, they came there likewise, agitating the multitudes.
      14 Then the brothers immediately sent out Paul to go as far as to the sea, and Silas and Timothy still stayed there.
      15 But those who escorted Paul brought him as far as Athens. Receiving a commandment to Silas and Timothy that they should come to him very quickly, they departed.
