"Now, concerning brotherly affection you are not having any need that I should be writing to you, for as for you, you yourselves are those taught that by God with a view to loving one another with a love that impels you to deny yourselves for the benefit of the one whom you love, for you also are doing the same with respect to all the brethren in the whole of Macedonia (your city or sphere of influence). Now, as for you, please, brethren, that you see to it that you continually are increasing more and more [in this love], that you make it your ambition to be living a quite life, that you are cultivating the habit of attending to your own private affairs, and that you are working with your hands, even as I gave you charge, in order that you may be conducting yourselves in a manner becoming to you [as children of God]toward those who are on the outside, in order that you may not be having need of anything." 1 Thes. 4:9-12 Wuest Translation.
