I Thess. 3:1-5
[1] Wherefore when we could no longer forbear, we thought it
good to be left at Athens alone;
[2] And sent Timotheus, our brother, and minister of God, and our fellowlabourer
in the gospel of Christ, to establish you, and to comfort you concerning your
faith:
[3] That no man should be moved by these afflictions: for yourselves know that
we are appointed thereunto.
[4] For verily, when we were with you, we told you before that we should suffer
tribulation; even as it came to pass, and ye know.
[5] For this cause, when I could no longer forbear, I sent to know your faith,
lest by some means the tempter have tempted you, and our labour be in vain.
