2 Thessalonians 3:7 - For you yourselves know how you ought to follow our example, because we did not act in an undisciplined or inappropriate manner when we were with you [we were never idle or lazy, nor did we avoid our duties],
2 Thessalonians 3:8 - nor did we eat anyone’s bread without paying for it, but with labor and hardship we worked night and day [to pay our own way] so that we would not be a financial burden on any of you [for our support];
2 Thessalonians 3:11 - Indeed, we hear that some among you are leading an undisciplined and inappropriate life, doing no work at all, but acting like busybodies [meddling in other people’s business].
2 Thessalonians 3:12 - Now such people we command and exhort in the Lord Jesus Christ to settle down and work quietly and earn their own food and other necessities [supporting themselves instead of depending on the hospitality of others].
Galatians 6:10 - So then, while we [as individual believers] have the opportunity, let us do good to all people [not only being helpful, but also doing that which promotes their spiritual well-being], and especially [be a blessing] to those of the household of faith (born-again believers).
1 Timothy 6:18 - Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous, willing to share [with others].
1 Thessalonians 4:11 - and to make it your ambition to live quietly and peacefully, and to mind your own affairs and work with your hands, just as we directed you,
1 Thessalonians 4:12 - so that you will behave properly toward outsiders [exhibiting good character, personal integrity, and moral courage worthy of the respect of the outside world], and be dependent on no one and in need of nothing [be self-supporting].
