It's when we humbly receive the word. When we read it, and study it and memorize it and seek to do what it says. It's that humbled attitude of dependence upon it that literally will change us, and that's what Paul observed in the folks at Thesolanica. And he says you welcomed the message of God's word with the joy of the Holy Spirit!
