Psalm 8:1 O LORD, our Lord,
How excellent is Your name in all the earth, Who have set Your glory above the heavens!
How excellent is our LORDs name! David begins & ends on this. His name is above all names. There is none like our God. Everything the LORD does is in excellence! Excellence means extremely good. He is in a league of His own. His workmanship Excels above all.
1 Thessalonians 1:9 For they themselves declare concerning us what manner of entry we had to you, and how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God. Paul came to them in word & pow
1 Thessalonians 1:7 so that you became examples to all in Macedonia and Achaia who believe. Paul, you mean this church that only had 3 weeks of formal training, that was heavily entrenched in idolatry
1 Thessalonians 1:6 And you became followers of us and of the Lord, having received the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Spirit, I choose to follow Jesus. The Lord opens eyes and hearts!
