1 Thessalonians 4:1 (ESV)
Finally, then, brothers, we ask and urge you in the Lord Jesus,
that as you received from us how you ought to walk and to
Please God, just as you are doing, that you do so more and
more.
Remember the Thessalonians were gentiles and grossly
immoral and bound in an oppressive pagan religion and who
knew nothing about the Christian life. Turning to Christ
changed all of that. After accepting the love of God through
Jesus Christ, the Thessalonians have a desire to Please God.
Thus, Paul gives instructions about how they can Please God.
