These verses are the beginning of two chapters of practical instructions as Paul explains the behaviour-patterns which please God. He covers intimate relationships (1 Thessalonians 4:3-8), relationships in the church (1 Thessalonians 4:9-10), in the workplace and community (1 Thessalonians 4:11-12), and personal lifestyle (1 Thessalonians 5:1-28). The context for this teaching is not the rigours and perils of persecution, but the anticipation of Jesus coming again – encouraging them to look ahead to be ready for an eternity with Jesus (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18).
