In Paul's letter to the church at Thessalonica, he exhorts and encourages the saints as opposed to his other epistles where he mainly rebukes them for their untoward action.
This was a time in Paul's ministry when he was literally trailed from town to town by his accusers. Even in a hostile environment, Paul took time to praise the church for their continual prayer and their labor of love and patience of hope in the Lord. (Verses 2&3).
We as REAL Men should be encouragers to our fellow brothers. Don't look for the weakness or faults but be encouragers one to another in the Holy Ghost!!
