1 Thessalonians 5:2-4
There are several verses of the scriptures that has either been interpreted wrongly or taken in isolation and for me the bible passage above takes the lead (esp verse 2) because, I believe this has gotten many of our brethren in the faith running really fast on the wrong lane. I think we should all just register it first of all in our minds that the Lord's coming is not a physical event, Yes! it is an event but it's not a one-off event. Even the first event of his coming is still a doubt for some till date, and the reason for his coming which is of more importance is still not known to many, and this is to say that the Scriptures and the center theme which is Jesus Christ the son of God is a spiritual nomenclature. 1John: 5:20 The reason for the Lord's coming is to give us an understanding of whom the Son of God is and the reason for his coming: to know the true God and eternal life. John 17:3
Back to 1 Thessalonians 5:2-4,
Many people still quote IN ISOLATION, the coming of the lord is like a thief in the night Verse 2 of 1 Thessalonians 5, Yes true but to them that are in the dark verse 4 says " but ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief, 5 says "ye are all children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness" 6 " therefore let us not sleep..." hmm sleep!!! God will not allow us to sleep unto Death o (ifykyk)
I trust my egbons @everyone will strengthen this thought and give clarity wherever is confusing or not laid well.
IRE ooooooo
