The Berean Jews were very glad to receive Paul’s message. They studied the Scriptures carefully every day. They wanted to see if what Paul said was true. So they were more noble than the Thessalonian Jews.Because of this, many of the Berean Jews believed. A number of important Greek women also became believers. And so did many Greek men.

My dear brothers and sisters, pay attention to what I say. Everyone should be quick to listen. But they should be slow to speak. They should be slow to get angry.

And my sickness was hard on you. But you weren’t mean to me. You didn’t make fun of me. Instead, you welcomed me as if I were an angel of God. You welcomed me as if I were Christ Jesus himself.

Those whose hearts understand what is right get knowledge. That’s because the ears of those who are wise listen for it.

So get rid of everything that is sinful. Get rid of the evil that is all around us. Don’t be too proud to accept the word that is planted in you. It can save you.

Anyone who takes the humble position of this child is the most important in the kingdom of heaven.

Let wise people listen and add to what they have learned. Let those who understand what is right get guidance.

“ Here is what I want you to know. God has sent his salvation to the Gentiles. And they will listen!”

Don’t fool yourselves. Suppose some of you think you are wise by the standards of the world. Then you should become“ fools” so that you can become wise.

God helped the people of Judah. He helped them agree with one another. So they did what the king and his officials had ordered. They did what the Lord told them to do.

So get rid of every kind of evil, and stop telling lies. Don’t pretend to be something you are not. Stop wanting what others have, and don’t speak against one another.Like newborn babies, you should long for the pure milk of God’s word. It will help you grow up as believers.

What I’m about to tell you is true. Anyone who will not receive God’s kingdom like a little child will never enter it.”

A wise judge’s warning to a listening ear is like a gold earring or jewelry made of fine gold.

But why should we die? This great fire will burn us up. We’ll die if we hear the voice of the Lord our God again.We have heard the voice of the living God. We’ve heard him speaking out of the fire. Has any other human being ever heard him speak like that and stayed alive?Go near and listen to everything the Lord our God says. Then tell us what he tells you. We will listen and obey.”The Lord heard you when you spoke to me. He said to me,“ I have heard what these people said to you. Everything they said was good.But I wish they would always have respect for me in their hearts. I wish they would always obey all my commands. Then things would go well with them and their children forever.

Teach a wise person, and they will become even wiser. Teach a person who does right, and they will learn even more.If you want to become wise, you must begin by respecting the Lord. To know the Holy One is to gain understanding.

We never stop thanking God for the way you received his word. You heard it from us. But you didn’t accept it as a human word. You accepted it for what it really is. It is God’s word. It is really at work in you who believe.

But many who are first will be last. And many who are last will be first.
