Paul's final exhortation to the believers concerned the importance of being diligent workers.
1. Exhortation - withdraw from disorderly, lazy busybodies.
2. Example - Paul was a responsible, hard worker in every respect
3. Explanation - Men have a responsibility to work. This shows obedience to God, protects them from being tempted to get in other peoples business and is a good testimony to the lost. By withdrawing from fellowship they would show that laziness was not acceptable and hopefully encourage those who were guilty to repent.
As a worker I need to be a target and a testimony. My work ethic should be responsible, diligent, honest and with a good attitude. This sets an example for the saved and shows the difference that Christ can make to the lost.
Walk with the Lord as a good worker!!!
