All Commentaries on 1 Thessalonians 5:19 Go To 1 Thessalonians 5
John Chrysostom
AD 407
On this account Paul says, “Do not quench the Spirit,” that is, the gift of grace, for it is his custom so to call the gift of the Spirit. But an impure life extinguishes the gift of grace. For as anyone who has sprinkled both water and dust upon the light of our lamp extinguishes it…. So it is also with the gift of grace.
