Behold, the Bridegroom!! Therefore, let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. Of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you, for yourselves know perfectly that the Day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. when they shall say, peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape. Ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day. We are not of the night, nor of darkness. Therefore, let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. They that sleep, sleep in the night, and they that be drunken are drunken in the night. Let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for a helmet, the Hope of Salvation. God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain Salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him. 1 Thessalonians 5:1-10 (KJV) Read and Study: Matthew Chapter 25 Revelation Chapters 19-22 |
