4:9–5:11 Paul responds to a series of questions from the Thessalonians (cp. 1 Cor 7:1) concerning love for one another (1 Thes 4:9-12), the destiny of deceased believers (4:13-18), and when the day of the Lord would come (5:1-11). 4:9 God himself has taught you to love one another (cp. Isa 54:13) through the teaching of Jesus (John 13:34-35), the cross (Rom 5:8; Eph 5:1-2), and the Holy Spirit (Rom 5:5; Gal 5:22).
