1 Thessalonians 4:7-9

Common English Bible

⁷ God didn’t call us to be immoral but to be dedicated to him.^{[a] 8} Therefore, whoever rejects these instructions isn’t rejecting a human authority. They are rejecting God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

⁹ You don’t need us to write about loving your brothers and sisters because God has already taught you to love each other.
