We need to care for each other, comfort each other, be examples of God's love to one another and let patience do her perfect work. If it is good for another it is good for us!
Paul teaches the Thessalonians submission rather than individualism and rejection of authority. To be most effective in promoting positive change in people's lives, believers should respond to individuals according to each one's particular needs. For a Christian to try to get revenge is a denial of basic Christian love, and it goes against Jesus' teaching.
5:15 Be at peace among yourselves.
14 Now we exhort you, brethren, warn those who are unruly, comfort the fainthearted, uphold the weak, be patient with all. 15 See that no one renders evil for evil to anyone, but always pursue what is good both for yourselves and for all.
