Paul advised Christians in Thessalonica to keep away from any brother who is living in idleness. In his second letter to the Thessalonians, Paul was encouraging the believers to work and not be idle, just as he had set an example for them. He warned them about those who refused to work, but instead, they were living in idleness, being busybodies, and not working for their own living. Paul instructed the church to avoid such people and not to associate with them, so that they may be ashamed of their behavior and repent. Therefore, it is living in idleness that Paul advised Christians in Thessalonica to keep away from any brother.
