As he begins wrapping up his letter with a variety of instruction for the church at Thessalonica, the Apostle Paul weaves his insight around the theme of, "what is good for each other and for everyone else." In shorter form: What is good for everyone. As a local church, this is always going to be a significant challenge. We have to come to agreement on what is good in various situation, decide how to pursue it, and peaceably work together to try to achieve it, for everyone. Difficult, but not impossible for a people called and empowered by the Holy Spirit.
