1 Thessalonians 5:[1] But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need that I write unto you. [2] For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
No one knows the exact moment when Christ will return, but we do know it will be after the five month long tribulation of satan also known as the hour of temptation.
The hour of temptation was originally seven years but has been shortened to a five month period. (Matthew 24:22 & Revelation 9:5 & 10)
[3] For 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.
Satan will appear in Jerusalem as antichrist at the woe of the sixth trumpet after he heals the deadly wound to the one world political system and this will be in the middle (half way) of the five month long hour of temptation, meaning we will have two and half months until the woe of the seventh trumpet when the TRUE Christ returns.
In Daniel it is written that he appears as antichrist in the middle of the week, and the week is five months.
Daniel 9:27 And he shall confirm the covenant with many for one week: and in the midst of the week he shall cause the sacrifice and the oblation to cease, and for the overspreading of abominations he shall make it desolate, even until the consummation, and that determined shall be poured upon the desolate.
ll Peter 3:(9) The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. (10) But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
1 Thessalonians 5:[4] But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should overtake you as a thief. [5] Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
God’s children are of the day, unlike satan, he is of the night. All prophecy concerning Jesus Christ is given in days (solar) and all prophecy concerning satan is given in moons (lunar).
[6] Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and be sober. [7] For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
Romans 11:[7] What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded [8] (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day.
1 Peter 5:[8] Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:
1 Thessalonians 5:[8] But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation.
Ephesians 6:[13] Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
Stand in the evil day? Notice it says stand, It doesn’t say you’re going to fly away in the evil day. This evil day is the woe of the sixth trumpet when satan appears in Jerusalem as antichrist claiming to be Christ returned.
[14] Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; [15] And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace.[16] Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. [17] And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
Put on the Gospel Armor.
1 Thessalonians 5:[9] For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
God pours out his wrath at the woe of the seventh trumpet (777). God’s wrath is poured out on those who don’t love the Lord.
[10] Who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him. [11] Wherefore comfort yourselves together, and edify one another, even as also ye do. [12] And we beseech you, brethren, to know them which labour among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you; [13] And to esteem them very highly in love for their work’s sake. And be at peace among yourselves. [14] Now we exhort you, brethren, warn them that are unruly, comfort the feebleminded, support the weak, be patient toward all men.
Warn others that satan, his seven thousand fallen angels and this is including the ten kings will all be cast out of heaven together at the woe of the fifth trumpet and after the war you read of in Revelation 12 starting in verse 7 and this will start the five month long hour of temptation. This will be a political beast system (N.W.O) Then at the woe of the sixth trumpet satan will play his role as the religious beast (antichrist) the one world religious system.
[15] See that none render evil for evil unto any man; but ever follow that which is good, both among yourselves, and to all men. [16] Rejoice evermore. [17] Pray without ceasing.
Pray about everything, talk to the LORD, He is waiting for you to ask. He’s your Father and He likes to hear from His children.
[18] In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
Praise God for knowledge and wisdom.
Proverbs 8:[11] For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the things that may be desired are not to be compared to it.
1 Thessalonians 5: [19] Quench not the Spirit. [20] Despise not prophesyings. [21] Prove all things; hold fast that which is good.
Use discernment, its a gift from God.
[22 Abstain from all appearance of evil. [23] And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
God doesn’t want us to worship anything other than Him.
2 Corinthians 11:[2] For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.
1 Thessalonians 5:[24] Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
Keep teaching Truth. Stay in God’s Word daily and be blessed. Let the Holy Spirit lead you and guide you.
The End
