Thirsting Souls Bible Teaching

(2Th 1:4) “So that we ourselves glory in you in the churches of God for your patience and faith in all your persecutions and tribulations that ye endure:”  “We ourselves glory in you”. Today there is a word we use wrongly; one the Bible always uses in the negative sense, we use in the positive sense. That very word reveals how we do not see things the way God sees them. Instead of the word, “glory’ we would use the word “proud”. “We are proud of you among the churches for your patience and faith…..” No. Pride is of the devil. To glory is to rejoice. Rejoice, glory, in the fact that God’s people do right. God help us to get rid of the word, “pride”, as we use it today.
