Paul says in verse 6: “But now that Timothy has cometo us from you, and brought us good news of your faith and love…” Thatlittle phrase “good news” is interesting. It comes from the same basicGreek word from which we get the idea of gospel or glad tidings. Timothycame back with good news! And what was the good news? It wasn't that thepersecution had stopped. It wasn't that all their problems had disappeared. Itwasn't that their circumstances had suddenly become easy. The good news wasthat their faith was still strong and their love was still evident. I thinkthere is a wonderful lesson here…
