Be Ready for the Lord's Coming

1There is no need to write you, friends, about the times and occasions when these things will happen.

2For you yourselves know very well that the Day of the Lord will come as a thief comes at night.

3When people say, “Everything is quiet and safe,” then suddenly destruction will hit them! It will come as suddenly as the pains that come upon a woman in labor, and people will not escape.

4But you, friends, are not in the darkness, and the Day should not take you by surprise like a thief.

5All of you are people who belong to the light, who belong to the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness.

6So then, we should not be sleeping like the others; we should be awake and sober.

7It is at night when people sleep; it is at night when they get drunk.

8But we belong to the day, and we should be sober. We must wear faith and love as a breastplate, and our hope of salvation as a helmet.

9God did not choose us to suffer his anger, but to possess salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

10who died for us in order that we might live together with him, whether we are alive or dead when he comes.

11And so encourage one another and help one another, just as you are now doing.

Final Instructions and Greetings

12We beg you, our friends, to pay proper respect to those who work among you, who guide and instruct you in the Christian life.

13Treat them with the greatest respect and love because of the work they do. Be at peace among yourselves.

14We urge you, our friends, to warn the idle, encourage the timid, help the weak, be patient with everyone.

15See that no one pays back wrong for wrong, but at all times make it your aim to do good to one another and to all people.

16Be joyful always,

17pray at all times,

18be thankful in all circumstances. This is what God wants from you in your life in union with Christ Jesus.

19Do not restrain the Holy Spirit;

20do not despise inspired messages.

21Put all things to the test: keep what is good

22and avoid every kind of evil.

23May the God who gives us peace make you holy in every way and keep your whole being -- spirit, soul, and body -- free from every fault at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

24He who calls you will do it, because he is faithful.

25Pray also for us, friends.

26Greet all the believers with the kiss of peace.

27I urge you by the authority of the Lord to read this letter to all the believers.

28The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
