CHILDREN of LIGHT

 

1 Thessalonians 5:24

King James Version

24 Faithful is he that calleth you, 

who also will do it.


In these crucial last days, it's important we know BELIEVERS in JESUS are children of light.

We are children of the day.

Let no one tell you differently.

1 Thessalonians 5:5

King James Version

5 Ye are all the children of light, 

and the children of the day: 

we are not of the night, 

nor of darkness.


Apostle Paul calls us to awareness.

1 Thessalonians 5:1-3

King James Version

5 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.

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.


To be watchful.

1 Thessalonians 5:6-8

King James Version

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.

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.


For salvation is in the LORD JESUS CHRIST.

1 Thessalonians 5:9-10

King James Version

9 For God hath not appointed us to wrath, 

but to obtain salvation 

by our Lord Jesus Christ,

10 Who died for us, 

that, whether we wake or sleep, 

we should live together with him.


And these, we must do, as CHILDREN of LIGHT:

1 Thessalonians 5:11-22

King James Version

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.

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.

18 In every thing give thanks

for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus 

concerning you.

19 Quench not the Spirit.

20 Despise not prophesyings.

21 Prove all things

hold fast that which is good.

22 Abstain from all appearance of evil.


1 Thessalonians 5:25-26

King James Version

25 Brethren, 

pray for us.

26 Greet all the brethren 

with an holy kiss.


So that we may all be blameless, when the LORD JESUS comes.

1 Thessalonians 5:23

King James Version

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.


Lastly, a BLESSING for ALL CHILDREN of LIGHT:

1 Thessalonians 5:28

King James Version

28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ 

be with you. 

Amen.
