1 Thessalonians 5:1-4 - 1599 Geneva Bible
1 But of the times and seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you.2 For ye yourselves know perfectly, that the day of the Lord shall come, even as a thief in the night.
3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety, then shall come upon them sudden destruction, as the travail upon a woman with child, and they shall not escape.
4 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day shall come on you, as it were a thief.
Brethren:
God wishes for us to be prepared. To be ever watchful, whilst going out our Christian duties of serving Him, and serving others. Let us therefore resolve to be as the five good virgins by keeping our lamps at the ready. (Read Acts 1:7; Mathew25:1-12)
R.P. Woitowitz
“It is needless or useless to ask about the particular time of Christ's coming. Christ did not reveal this to His apostles. The coming of Christ will e a great surprise to men. It will be terrible to the ungodly. There will be no means to escape. Let us endeavor to awaken ourselves and each other.”
Matthew Henry
