1Th 3:2 | MHM | STEP | v. 2 : Paul gives a high recommendation for Timothy: We sent Timotheus, our brother, and minister of God, and our fellow-labourer in the gospel of Christ (1 Thessalonians 3:2 ). Even though Timothy was younger and had less experience, Paul calls him a brother and coworker. This shows Paul’s humility and how he respected his fellow workers in sharing the gospel. Timothy’s job was to help the Thessalonians grow stronger in their faith and to encourage them, especially about the truth that Jesus is the Saviour and that trusting Him is worth more than any suffering.
