What does 1 Thessalonians 2:1 mean?
"For you yourselves know, brothers, our visit to you wasn’t in vain,"
— 1 Thessalonians 2:1 (World English Bible)
Surrounding context
For you yourselves know, brothers, our visit to you wasn’t in vain,
but having suffered before and been shamefully treated, as you know, at Philippi, we grew bold in our God to tell you the Good News of God in much conflict.
For our exhortation is not of error, nor of uncleanness, nor in deception.
But even as we have been approved by God to be entrusted with the Good News, so we speak; not as pleasing men, but God, who tests our hearts.
