• As long as the Lord was absent, another result flowed from this fact; namely, that these joys were mingled with conflict-conflict, however, which, although to the eye of man interrupting enjoyment, made it more sweet, more real, preserved its heavenly character, and made the Lord Himself, from whom they could not be separated, the center, the common point in which hearts were united. (“1 Thessalonians 2” by J.N. Darby)
• We are converted to wait for Him (ch. 1); we shall enjoy the communion of saints and the fruit of our labors when He returns (ch. 2); that day gives its force and its measure to our thoughts respecting holiness (ch. 3); it destroys the anguish of heart which would otherwise accompany the death of the saints (ch. 4); it is for that day we are kept (ch. 5). The coming of the Lord, the presence of Jesus, fills, therefore, the believer’s heart, when life is springing up in its freshness-fills it with a joyous hope, the fulfillment of which shines bright before our eyes, there where all our desires will be accomplished. (“1 Thessalonians 2” by J.N. Darby)
• Thus does he bind their hearts with his own (and may it be true of us also!) in the joy of Christ's presence at His coming. (“On 1 Thessalonians 2:13-20” by W. Kelly)
