John Jewel, Anglican bishop, write on praise of a church for their diligent love (1 Thes 1:3). The one who loves, underoes travails on behalf of the beloved, and lets loose some bounty. The Thessalonian church provided this love for saints in affliction, loss of goods, and banishment.

Has today’s conservative church forgotten love for the saints, as noted in the response to Christian Syrians?

How can you experience the travail of love?

JC Ryle, English, evangelical, Anglican bishop (why don’t biographers use proper punctuation?) on Lazarus. He says the passage is to teach us damnable nature of sins of omission.

Just read book recommended by Puritan scholar to young men. Quote by JC but nothing of duties to neighbor or poor or the suffering. Now that’s certainly an omission!

How can you be aware of sufferers that you might be accounted as “leaving alone”?
