1 Thessalonians 4

“Make it your ambition to lead a quiet life, to mind your own business and to work with your hands, just as we told you, so that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.”

Paul gives the direction for our ambition. The ultimate ambition is to win the respect of those outside the faith. How is this done? By leading a quiet life, minding your own business. I guess Paul does teach that our actions are a large part of our witness.

I am on vacation this week. We are staying at a place that does not have web access, therefore I am posting this in advance.
