1 Thessalonians 5:6 - Additional Comments

In Pearl Harbor, how many years had the watchmen kept watch with no incident? Yet, one day the watchmen actually saw something, and were basically ignored. How many years had Noah warned of rain before it rained? Yes, one day it rained. ow many years had the Jew waited for the Messiah to arrive? Yes, one day He was born on the earth. We have been told of the Second Coming, and one day it will happen.
So, with this in mind, we are to continue to keep watch. And, to be sober, to be holy, to be serious about God's business.
Luke 21:34 - "But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly."
