Christians are called to live with purpose and faithfulness. In 2 Thessalonians 3:6, believers are warned to avoid those who choose to live in idleness and ignore the teachings passed down from the apostles. This is not just a suggestion, but a clear command given in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
The message is simple: faith is not meant to be passive. God expects His people to stay active, doing good works and following His will while waiting for Christ’s return. Rather than wasting time in laziness or empty talk, believers should be found carrying out the work of God.
In the same way, faith also, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself.
James 2:17
