1 Thessalonians1:7

7 So that ye were examples to all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia.

As ye followed our Example and of the Lord, so ye were examples your selves, and such great examples that influenced all the believers both of Macedonia, and Achaia. Your example reached beyond the confines of Thessalonica, unto the believers of all Macedonia, yea farther, to the [illegible: 1 letter]elievers of all Achaia. And though the Philippians of Macedonia received the Gospel before you, as appears in the story, Acts 16. yet ye exceeded them, and became examples to them in your Faith and Patience, &c.
