00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.240
 1 Thessalonians 5, 1-11.

00:00:30.000 --> 00:00:36.359
 But you are not in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief.

00:00:37.480 --> 00:00:40.600
 For you are all children of light, children of the day.

00:00:41.519 --> 00:00:43.519
 We're not of the night or of the darkness.

00:00:44.420 --> 00:00:50.039
 So then let us not sleep as others do, but let us keep awake, be sober.

00:00:51.140 --> 00:00:53.340
 For those who sleep, sleep at night.

00:00:54.120 --> 00:00:56.320
 Those who get drunk are drunk at night.

00:00:56.320 --> 00:01:04.379
 But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and love,

00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:07.180
 and for a helmet the hope of salvation.

00:01:08.439 --> 00:01:15.960
 For God has not destined us for wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

00:01:16.599 --> 00:01:23.359
 who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep, we might live with Him.

00:01:23.359 --> 00:01:30.120
 Therefore, encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing.

00:01:31.420 --> 00:01:31.819
 Amen.

00:01:33.819 --> 00:01:40.840
 Many of you know that I spent my teenage years in a tiny mountain town in East Tennessee.

00:01:41.659 --> 00:01:43.780
 The town is called Unicoi.

00:01:44.480 --> 00:01:47.099
 It's a weird name. I don't know where it came from. It's odd.

00:01:47.219 --> 00:01:50.140
 It matches probably the personality of the town, to be honest.

00:01:50.299 --> 00:01:51.359
 It's a little bit odd.

00:01:51.359 --> 00:01:56.599
 The high school I went to, though, it was near Bristol, Virginia, Bristol, Tennessee.

00:01:56.980 --> 00:02:00.099
 If you know anything about the area, the city sits on the border of the two states,

00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:02.980
 so I don't really know how you're supposed to refer to it.

00:02:03.219 --> 00:02:05.239
 But that's where my high school was.

00:02:05.299 --> 00:02:09.379
 It was just outside of Bristol on the Tennessee side of the city,

00:02:09.620 --> 00:02:13.939
 which was about a 45-minute drive at the time from where we lived.

00:02:13.939 --> 00:02:22.219
 But our house was just far enough away that whenever the school sent mail,

00:02:23.099 --> 00:02:26.180
 the letters or whatever it was that they were sending

00:02:26.180 --> 00:02:33.280
 typically would arrive at our house in Unicoi about a day later than the rest of my classmates.

00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:39.740
 And this was before schools digitized everything and communicated everything virtually.

00:02:39.740 --> 00:02:47.879
 And every nine weeks or so, the school would mail to my parents a report card.

00:02:48.980 --> 00:02:54.640
 The audacity of such a thing to tell on me to my parents.

00:02:55.200 --> 00:02:56.760
 They would do that every nine weeks.

00:02:56.759 --> 00:03:06.280
 And unfortunately, there were a few times that awaiting that report card was a bit torturous, to be honest.

00:03:07.579 --> 00:03:13.459
 Knowing that I had not applied myself to my studies as my parents expected me to do,

00:03:14.659 --> 00:03:19.379
 I grew anxious about what we might call the coming day of judgment.

00:03:19.379 --> 00:03:27.620
 One of the problems is that I didn't know exactly when the report card would make its way to the mailbox.

00:03:28.859 --> 00:03:31.539
 I didn't know exactly when they would be sent out.

00:03:31.740 --> 00:03:35.719
 And I didn't know exactly when it would arrive even after it was sent.

00:03:36.659 --> 00:03:44.819
 And as the inevitable day drew closer, as my anxiety about what might happen grew,

00:03:44.819 --> 00:03:49.099
 I would start pestering everybody at school about it.

00:03:49.799 --> 00:03:52.060
 I'd stick my head in the guidance counselor's office.

00:03:52.840 --> 00:03:54.000
 She seemed to like me.

00:03:54.079 --> 00:03:57.539
 And I'd say, you know, have you sent out the report cards yet?

00:03:58.439 --> 00:04:03.479
 I'm just curious when my parents will get to see what I've been doing for the last nine weeks.

00:04:04.560 --> 00:04:06.199
 And she might would let me know.

00:04:06.259 --> 00:04:08.299
 And then I'd start going to all my classmates because I told you,

00:04:08.359 --> 00:04:10.959
 typically the mail would arrive to their house about a day earlier,

00:04:11.379 --> 00:04:13.659
 usually, than what it would arrive at my house.

00:04:13.659 --> 00:04:16.019
 And I'd start asking my classmates, did you get your report card yet?

00:04:17.159 --> 00:04:23.839
 I was trying to prepare myself as best as I could for what was to come,

00:04:23.980 --> 00:04:31.199
 fearful that what awaited me was the wrath of Harold and Peggy Blankenship.

00:04:32.060 --> 00:04:33.779
 And sometimes that's exactly what it was.

00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:37.219
 We come to 1 Thessalonians 5.

00:04:37.219 --> 00:04:41.279
 We find that some of the Christians in the church of Thessalonica

00:04:41.279 --> 00:04:44.339
 seemed to have a similar kind of anxiety,

00:04:44.979 --> 00:04:48.099
 but it was about the second coming of Christ.

00:04:49.819 --> 00:04:53.799
 That future event is at the heart of this entire letter.

00:04:53.919 --> 00:04:54.839
 We're learning that now.

00:04:54.879 --> 00:04:58.239
 Now that we're approaching the end and we're able to start piecing together

00:04:58.239 --> 00:05:00.319
 all the things that we've seen and heard and read,

00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:05.779
 we're starting to see there is an underlying theme to the book,

00:05:05.779 --> 00:05:10.679
 something that Paul continues to drive chapter after chapter after chapter.

00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:13.299
 And then when we get here, we realize what it is.

00:05:13.299 --> 00:05:19.799
 The undercurrent of this letter has to do with the return of Jesus.

00:05:21.259 --> 00:05:26.679
 And from chapter 4 verse 13 through chapter 5 and verse 11,

00:05:27.379 --> 00:05:33.839
 Paul directly addressed some of the concerns that the Thessalonians had.

00:05:33.839 --> 00:05:41.699
 In 4, 13 to 18, we understood last week that the issue there

00:05:41.699 --> 00:05:47.959
 was that they had a lack of information about the future resurrection of the saints

00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:53.679
 and their lack of information had led to a hopeless grief.

00:05:53.799 --> 00:05:59.039
 They were beginning to grieve the loss of their brothers and sisters in Christ

00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:03.640
 in a way that looked more like the unbelieving world where that had no hope

00:06:03.640 --> 00:06:05.920
 than like those who had the hope of Christ.

00:06:06.819 --> 00:06:08.480
 But the problem was a lack of information.

00:06:08.700 --> 00:06:12.720
 And Paul addressed the lack of information in order that they might be comforted in their grief.

00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:16.640
 When we get to these verses in chapter 5,

00:06:17.340 --> 00:06:19.140
 the issue isn't a lack of information.

00:06:19.139 --> 00:06:23.719
 The issue here is a lack of assurance.

00:06:24.979 --> 00:06:31.139
 And with the lack of assurance came a fearful anxiety

00:06:31.139 --> 00:06:36.139
 as the day of the Lord, the return of Christ, approached.

00:06:37.759 --> 00:06:41.560
 Now, I want to be clear about the nature of the problem

00:06:41.560 --> 00:06:45.579
 by acknowledging that there is a difference

00:06:45.579 --> 00:06:47.579
 between a lack of assurance

00:06:47.579 --> 00:06:51.740
 and what we would say is a lack of faith.

00:06:52.959 --> 00:06:55.560
 A lot of times we lump the two things together

00:06:55.560 --> 00:06:59.300
 where we would see someone who perhaps is struggling

00:06:59.300 --> 00:07:01.620
 with the assurance of their salvation

00:07:01.620 --> 00:07:05.860
 and we would automatically equate that to a lack of faith

00:07:05.860 --> 00:07:07.379
 in Christ and His gospel.

00:07:07.699 --> 00:07:09.639
 Those two things are not the same.

00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:16.680
 A believer may have all of his or her hope and trust

00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:19.920
 resting in the person and the work of Jesus Christ

00:07:19.920 --> 00:07:24.340
 and still at times battle a sense of insecurity

00:07:24.340 --> 00:07:29.920
 as to whether or not he will be able to stand in the judgment.

00:07:31.620 --> 00:07:34.240
 The Christians to whom Paul was writing

00:07:34.240 --> 00:07:37.660
 were not lacking faith in Christ,

00:07:37.660 --> 00:07:42.580
 neither were they wavering in their hope in the gospel.

00:07:42.780 --> 00:07:44.480
 That's not what's happening here

00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:46.780
 and we need to be clear about it.

00:07:47.820 --> 00:07:50.660
 The letter has repeatedly affirmed

00:07:50.660 --> 00:07:53.160
 that they were full of faith in Christ

00:07:53.160 --> 00:07:57.800
 which was proven through their perseverance in suffering.

00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:00.620
 Paul says all the way back in chapter one,

00:08:00.620 --> 00:08:05.199
 I know, I am confident that you are the elect of God,

00:08:05.280 --> 00:08:07.220
 you're chosen in God and here's why,

00:08:07.300 --> 00:08:10.520
 because your faith in Christ continues to flourish

00:08:10.520 --> 00:08:14.500
 and persevere despite incredible persecution.

00:08:15.220 --> 00:08:17.460
 That's reiterated once again in chapter three

00:08:17.460 --> 00:08:19.379
 when Timothy comes back with his report

00:08:19.379 --> 00:08:22.899
 and Paul rejoices because in their perseverance,

00:08:24.100 --> 00:08:27.399
 their belonging to God is proven.

00:08:28.379 --> 00:08:31.600
 So what we do not want to do is come to this text

00:08:31.600 --> 00:08:34.360
 and say, well, there is some kind of lack of faith

00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:35.860
 on the part of the Thessalonians.

00:08:35.960 --> 00:08:37.559
 That's not what's actually happening here.

00:08:38.840 --> 00:08:40.399
 They didn't doubt Jesus,

00:08:40.939 --> 00:08:44.519
 but it does seem that some of them worried

00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:46.919
 about his coming.

00:08:48.199 --> 00:08:51.779
 They worried that when he arrives,

00:08:52.559 --> 00:08:55.340
 maybe they wouldn't stand.

00:08:56.600 --> 00:08:58.039
 The reason for their fear,

00:08:58.840 --> 00:09:01.139
 as we'll find as we work through the text,

00:09:01.639 --> 00:09:05.840
 is a combination of the terrifying prospect

00:09:05.840 --> 00:09:07.179
 of God's judgment

00:09:07.179 --> 00:09:11.740
 with the reality of continued sin in their lives,

00:09:11.860 --> 00:09:13.480
 the presence of sin.

00:09:13.480 --> 00:09:15.980
 They knew Christ was coming

00:09:15.980 --> 00:09:18.720
 and they knew that when he comes,

00:09:19.220 --> 00:09:20.620
 he will come in judgment.

00:09:21.659 --> 00:09:25.560
 They also knew that despite trusting in him,

00:09:25.960 --> 00:09:29.100
 they still battled the presence of sin in their lives.

00:09:29.300 --> 00:09:31.399
 And when they brought those two things together,

00:09:31.639 --> 00:09:34.539
 it created a sense of anxiety and uncertainty,

00:09:36.180 --> 00:09:38.680
 lacking a sense of assurance

00:09:38.680 --> 00:09:41.779
 about their standing with God.

00:09:41.779 --> 00:09:45.579
 Now surely you can relate to this.

00:09:48.220 --> 00:09:50.059
 If you're a believing Christian,

00:09:50.759 --> 00:09:55.500
 surely you know what it's like to trust Christ,

00:09:55.620 --> 00:09:58.000
 to know that your faith is in him,

00:09:58.139 --> 00:10:00.480
 that your faith is in what he has done,

00:10:00.559 --> 00:10:03.600
 and yet also question at times

00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:06.299
 whether or not you truly belong to him.

00:10:06.299 --> 00:10:09.399
 That on that final day,

00:10:09.839 --> 00:10:12.299
 you might not escape his wrath,

00:10:12.500 --> 00:10:15.500
 not because of him and any lack in him,

00:10:15.620 --> 00:10:16.959
 but because you understand

00:10:16.959 --> 00:10:19.859
 your own shortcoming and failure and sin.

00:10:21.240 --> 00:10:23.199
 Surely you understand what that's like.

00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:29.700
 The point of this text is to reassure

00:10:29.700 --> 00:10:34.540
 and instruct believers of their destiny

00:10:34.540 --> 00:10:36.180
 at Christ's return.

00:10:37.620 --> 00:10:42.120
 The tone of what Paul writes here is not corrective,

00:10:42.360 --> 00:10:45.160
 even though he exhorts them in one place.

00:10:45.580 --> 00:10:46.580
 It's not corrective.

00:10:46.580 --> 00:10:48.580
 He's not frustrated.

00:10:50.020 --> 00:10:51.360
 He's not irritated.

00:10:52.920 --> 00:10:56.400
 The tone of the text is reassurance.

00:10:57.820 --> 00:11:00.740
 Like a parent coming alongside their child

00:11:00.740 --> 00:11:02.420
 who's discouraged and lifting them up

00:11:02.420 --> 00:11:04.460
 and saying, it's okay, doing all right.

00:11:05.560 --> 00:11:07.080
 That's what Paul's doing here.

00:11:07.259 --> 00:11:09.040
 He's reassuring believers.

00:11:09.220 --> 00:11:10.520
 He's instructing believers

00:11:10.520 --> 00:11:12.800
 of the reality of their destiny,

00:11:12.940 --> 00:11:13.900
 their true destiny,

00:11:13.899 --> 00:11:15.579
 when Christ returns.

00:11:16.779 --> 00:11:19.279
 And to fully grasp the comfort

00:11:19.279 --> 00:11:21.519
 that Paul sought to provide in the passage,

00:11:21.799 --> 00:11:24.419
 I want to point out three things in the text.

00:11:24.819 --> 00:11:25.860
 I want to show you

00:11:25.860 --> 00:11:28.059
 the reality of the coming judgment.

00:11:28.240 --> 00:11:29.959
 We want to look soberly at that.

00:11:31.019 --> 00:11:34.159
 I want to show you two reassurances

00:11:34.159 --> 00:11:36.579
 for those who are in Christ,

00:11:36.659 --> 00:11:38.379
 who belong to God by grace.

00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:40.000
 And then finally,

00:11:40.139 --> 00:11:42.299
 I want to show you the proper response

00:11:42.299 --> 00:11:45.120
 for those who have received

00:11:45.120 --> 00:11:47.579
 the assurance of their future salvation.

00:11:47.859 --> 00:11:48.039
 Okay?

00:11:48.339 --> 00:11:49.299
 That's kind of the path

00:11:49.299 --> 00:11:50.399
 that we're going to follow as we go.

00:11:50.879 --> 00:11:52.159
 First thing I want to show you

00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:55.319
 is the reality of the coming judgment.

00:11:56.579 --> 00:11:58.000
 Reality of the coming judgment.

00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:00.339
 Look again at the first three verses.

00:12:00.679 --> 00:12:02.299
 Now concerning the times and seasons,

00:12:02.459 --> 00:12:02.679
 brothers,

00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:05.379
 you have no need to have anything written to you.

00:12:06.259 --> 00:12:08.879
 For you yourselves are fully aware

00:12:08.879 --> 00:12:10.120
 that the day of the Lord

00:12:10.120 --> 00:12:12.019
 will come like a thief in the night.

00:12:13.159 --> 00:12:14.500
 While people are saying

00:12:14.500 --> 00:12:15.940
 there is peace and security,

00:12:16.840 --> 00:12:18.460
 then sudden destruction

00:12:18.460 --> 00:12:19.600
 will come upon them

00:12:19.600 --> 00:12:22.320
 as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman.

00:12:23.039 --> 00:12:24.139
 And they will not escape.

00:12:24.980 --> 00:12:27.500
 It's the reality of what is to come.

00:12:28.539 --> 00:12:28.960
 Now again,

00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:30.679
 this is not a separate event

00:12:30.679 --> 00:12:31.779
 from what is covered

00:12:31.779 --> 00:12:34.639
 in chapter 4 verses 13 to 18.

00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:35.820
 What it is,

00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:37.120
 is a different perspective

00:12:37.120 --> 00:12:38.940
 of the same event.

00:12:40.139 --> 00:12:41.259
 Christ's return,

00:12:41.799 --> 00:12:42.820
 what we often call

00:12:42.820 --> 00:12:44.340
 the second coming of Christ,

00:12:44.340 --> 00:12:45.480
 will begin

00:12:45.480 --> 00:12:47.879
 with the redemption of those,

00:12:48.060 --> 00:12:49.639
 both dead and living,

00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:51.299
 as we studied last week.

00:12:51.600 --> 00:12:52.340
 It will begin

00:12:52.340 --> 00:12:53.720
 with the redemption of those

00:12:53.720 --> 00:12:54.860
 who have trusted in Christ

00:12:54.860 --> 00:12:55.620
 for salvation.

00:12:56.120 --> 00:12:57.279
 Those who are His

00:12:57.279 --> 00:12:58.919
 will be redeemed

00:12:58.919 --> 00:13:00.379
 and saved

00:13:00.379 --> 00:13:01.799
 in the day of judgment.

00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:04.759
 And then the coming of Christ,

00:13:04.759 --> 00:13:05.700
 what's reflected

00:13:05.700 --> 00:13:08.460
 in chapter 4 verses 13 to 18,

00:13:08.580 --> 00:13:09.819
 will then give way

00:13:09.819 --> 00:13:11.340
 to what is referred to

00:13:11.340 --> 00:13:12.779
 as the day of the Lord,

00:13:13.620 --> 00:13:16.039
 in which Jesus will judge the earth

00:13:16.039 --> 00:13:16.939
 and all that's in it.

00:13:17.819 --> 00:13:19.740
 And it's this dynamic of judgment

00:13:19.740 --> 00:13:21.340
 referred to as the day of the Lord

00:13:21.340 --> 00:13:24.340
 that is the focus of 1 to 11

00:13:24.340 --> 00:13:25.439
 in chapter 5.

00:13:25.759 --> 00:13:26.659
 Same event,

00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:28.840
 different perspective of the event.

00:13:29.960 --> 00:13:31.720
 Now some of the Thessalonian Christians,

00:13:31.939 --> 00:13:33.039
 like I did in high school,

00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:34.439
 were concerned about

00:13:34.439 --> 00:13:36.480
 the timing of those things.

00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:39.599
 Worried that they would be unprepared

00:13:39.599 --> 00:13:43.199
 the day that Jesus did actually arrive.

00:13:44.559 --> 00:13:45.339
 And of course,

00:13:45.500 --> 00:13:46.799
 the times and seasons

00:13:46.799 --> 00:13:48.240
 of these things

00:13:48.240 --> 00:13:49.839
 are known only to God.

00:13:50.719 --> 00:13:51.360
 So Paul says,

00:13:51.699 --> 00:13:53.299
 you don't need me to write to you about that

00:13:53.299 --> 00:13:54.500
 because you know

00:13:54.500 --> 00:13:57.099
 that we don't know

00:13:57.099 --> 00:13:58.819
 when this is going to take place.

00:13:58.899 --> 00:14:00.219
 We don't know the times and seasons.

00:14:00.939 --> 00:14:02.240
 Now where is Paul getting that?

00:14:02.240 --> 00:14:03.940
 Well, he's getting that from Jesus,

00:14:04.100 --> 00:14:04.440
 isn't he?

00:14:05.000 --> 00:14:06.940
 Remember just before Jesus ascends

00:14:06.940 --> 00:14:08.320
 back to heaven in Acts chapter 1,

00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:10.180
 remember what the last question was

00:14:10.180 --> 00:14:11.259
 that his disciples asked.

00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:12.019
 They said,

00:14:12.120 --> 00:14:14.659
 Lord, will you now restore the kingdom?

00:14:14.799 --> 00:14:16.580
 Will you now bring the kingdom?

00:14:18.019 --> 00:14:19.480
 They couldn't get their minds off of it.

00:14:19.580 --> 00:14:21.480
 They were fixated on it,

00:14:21.680 --> 00:14:22.799
 longing for it.

00:14:23.340 --> 00:14:24.299
 There wasn't time for that.

00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:25.460
 Remember what Jesus said

00:14:25.460 --> 00:14:26.659
 in Acts 1, 7.

00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:27.080
 He said,

00:14:27.080 --> 00:14:28.440
 it is not for you

00:14:28.440 --> 00:14:30.259
 to know the times or seasons

00:14:30.259 --> 00:14:33.120
 that the Father has fixed

00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:34.680
 by his own authority.

00:14:34.900 --> 00:14:35.320
 In other words,

00:14:35.360 --> 00:14:36.940
 this is known only to God.

00:14:37.300 --> 00:14:38.639
 It is a day fixed

00:14:38.639 --> 00:14:39.780
 sometime in the future.

00:14:40.120 --> 00:14:40.900
 It is coming.

00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:42.460
 We don't know exactly when.

00:14:42.960 --> 00:14:44.340
 Paul didn't know exactly when.

00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:46.139
 And though they were clamoring

00:14:46.139 --> 00:14:47.340
 to try to get a sense

00:14:47.340 --> 00:14:48.500
 of when is this going to happen,

00:14:48.840 --> 00:14:49.780
 Paul just reminds them

00:14:49.780 --> 00:14:50.400
 right off the bat,

00:14:50.680 --> 00:14:51.620
 the times and the seasons,

00:14:51.759 --> 00:14:52.020
 brothers,

00:14:52.580 --> 00:14:53.220
 you don't need me

00:14:53.220 --> 00:14:53.920
 to write about that.

00:14:53.980 --> 00:14:54.420
 You don't need me

00:14:54.419 --> 00:14:55.419
 to speculate about it

00:14:55.419 --> 00:14:56.479
 because we don't know.

00:14:58.419 --> 00:14:59.439
 All of this was something

00:14:59.439 --> 00:15:01.039
 that the Thessalonians knew well.

00:15:01.319 --> 00:15:02.819
 We see that in verse 2.

00:15:03.299 --> 00:15:04.360
 For you yourselves

00:15:04.360 --> 00:15:05.740
 are fully aware.

00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:08.399
 You yourselves.

00:15:08.819 --> 00:15:09.659
 That's emphatic

00:15:09.659 --> 00:15:10.879
 both in Greek

00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:11.819
 and in English here.

00:15:12.259 --> 00:15:13.079
 He could have just said

00:15:13.079 --> 00:15:14.179
 you're fully aware.

00:15:14.299 --> 00:15:15.539
 No, he brings emphasis,

00:15:15.740 --> 00:15:15.959
 doesn't he?

00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:17.039
 You yourselves,

00:15:17.159 --> 00:15:17.959
 you know this.

00:15:18.059 --> 00:15:18.599
 You know.

00:15:19.199 --> 00:15:20.219
 You know that the day

00:15:20.219 --> 00:15:20.819
 of the Lord

00:15:20.819 --> 00:15:22.899
 is going to come

00:15:22.899 --> 00:15:23.959
 like a thief in the night.

00:15:23.960 --> 00:15:25.200
 It's intensifying

00:15:25.200 --> 00:15:26.200
 the assertion

00:15:26.200 --> 00:15:27.680
 that they were fully aware

00:15:27.680 --> 00:15:28.759
 of this truth already.

00:15:30.320 --> 00:15:32.840
 So in 4, 13 to 18,

00:15:33.259 --> 00:15:34.920
 their grief rose

00:15:34.920 --> 00:15:35.680
 from something

00:15:35.680 --> 00:15:37.600
 that they hadn't been yet taught.

00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:40.700
 In 5, 1 through 11,

00:15:40.860 --> 00:15:41.139
 here,

00:15:41.540 --> 00:15:42.940
 their anxiety comes

00:15:42.940 --> 00:15:46.000
 precisely because of something

00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:47.639
 that they had been taught.

00:15:47.820 --> 00:15:48.660
 Do you see the difference?

00:15:49.840 --> 00:15:50.240
 Before,

00:15:50.360 --> 00:15:51.100
 they didn't really know

00:15:51.100 --> 00:15:52.440
 how to fill in the gaps

00:15:52.440 --> 00:15:53.860
 and it was leading to grief.

00:15:53.960 --> 00:15:55.120
 But in this case,

00:15:55.200 --> 00:15:55.860
 the day of the Lord,

00:15:56.100 --> 00:15:56.940
 they know exactly

00:15:56.940 --> 00:15:57.680
 what's going to happen

00:15:57.680 --> 00:15:58.240
 on that day.

00:15:58.900 --> 00:15:59.780
 They know exactly

00:15:59.780 --> 00:16:00.860
 what that's going to be like

00:16:00.860 --> 00:16:02.139
 and it's their knowledge

00:16:02.139 --> 00:16:03.200
 actually that's producing

00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:04.320
 their anxiety now.

00:16:06.120 --> 00:16:07.060
 And what was it

00:16:07.060 --> 00:16:07.940
 that they were so

00:16:07.940 --> 00:16:09.360
 anxious about?

00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:11.800
 They were fully aware

00:16:11.800 --> 00:16:13.600
 of the reality

00:16:13.600 --> 00:16:16.160
 of the coming judgment

00:16:16.160 --> 00:16:17.139
 of God

00:16:17.139 --> 00:16:19.279
 on the day of the Lord.

00:16:22.419 --> 00:16:24.000
 The truth of what Jesus

00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:25.059
 is going to do

00:16:25.059 --> 00:16:26.519
 upon His return

00:16:26.519 --> 00:16:29.799
 made them afraid.

00:16:32.120 --> 00:16:33.240
 Now Paul used

00:16:33.240 --> 00:16:35.779
 familiar imagery here

00:16:35.779 --> 00:16:37.159
 to describe the day of the Lord.

00:16:38.519 --> 00:16:41.000
 The idea of a thief in the night

00:16:41.000 --> 00:16:44.200
 underscores that this event,

00:16:44.200 --> 00:16:45.120
 the coming of the Lord,

00:16:45.200 --> 00:16:45.960
 the day of the Lord

00:16:45.960 --> 00:16:47.620
 will be both unexpected

00:16:47.620 --> 00:16:50.220
 and destructive,

00:16:50.500 --> 00:16:50.960
 harmful.

00:16:51.879 --> 00:16:52.620
 You don't know

00:16:52.620 --> 00:16:53.280
 when it's coming

00:16:53.280 --> 00:16:55.140
 and you know

00:16:55.140 --> 00:16:56.200
 that when it does come,

00:16:56.280 --> 00:16:57.259
 it's going to be dangerous.

00:16:58.460 --> 00:17:00.200
 And then he explains

00:17:00.200 --> 00:17:01.379
 the image in verse 3.

00:17:02.420 --> 00:17:03.220
 Look at what it says.

00:17:03.300 --> 00:17:04.120
 While people are saying

00:17:04.120 --> 00:17:05.319
 there is peace and security,

00:17:05.500 --> 00:17:06.460
 then sudden destruction

00:17:06.460 --> 00:17:07.400
 will come upon them.

00:17:07.700 --> 00:17:08.779
 He's fleshing out

00:17:08.779 --> 00:17:09.539
 the illustration

00:17:09.539 --> 00:17:10.500
 of the thief in the night,

00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:10.840
 isn't he?

00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:12.459
 The people here

00:17:12.459 --> 00:17:13.039
 in verse 3

00:17:13.039 --> 00:17:13.959
 are unbelievers

00:17:13.959 --> 00:17:16.079
 who like the unsuspecting

00:17:16.079 --> 00:17:16.919
 homeowner

00:17:16.919 --> 00:17:19.559
 feel at peace.

00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:22.079
 They feel secure.

00:17:23.359 --> 00:17:24.519
 And for them,

00:17:25.379 --> 00:17:26.579
 Christ's return

00:17:26.579 --> 00:17:31.159
 will bring sudden destruction.

00:17:33.379 --> 00:17:35.779
 Peter used the same imagery

00:17:35.779 --> 00:17:37.959
 but he detailed the events

00:17:37.959 --> 00:17:38.740
 a little differently.

00:17:38.740 --> 00:17:40.920
 In 2 Peter 3.10,

00:17:41.339 --> 00:17:42.799
 but the day of the Lord

00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:44.120
 will come like a thief

00:17:44.120 --> 00:17:46.420
 and what will it bring?

00:17:47.019 --> 00:17:48.079
 Then the heavens

00:17:48.079 --> 00:17:49.099
 will pass away

00:17:49.099 --> 00:17:49.779
 with a roar.

00:17:50.420 --> 00:17:51.640
 The heavenly bodies

00:17:51.640 --> 00:17:52.720
 will be burned up

00:17:52.720 --> 00:17:53.539
 and dissolved.

00:17:54.220 --> 00:17:54.799
 The earth

00:17:54.799 --> 00:17:55.940
 and the works

00:17:55.940 --> 00:17:56.900
 that are done on it

00:17:56.900 --> 00:17:58.099
 will be exposed.

00:18:00.180 --> 00:18:01.359
 That's the reality

00:18:01.359 --> 00:18:02.319
 of the day of the Lord.

00:18:03.319 --> 00:18:04.819
 The Thessalonians understood

00:18:04.819 --> 00:18:06.259
 that that is the reality

00:18:06.259 --> 00:18:07.140
 of the day of the Lord

00:18:07.140 --> 00:18:08.900
 and in speaking of it,

00:18:09.020 --> 00:18:10.660
 Paul uses the same imagery

00:18:10.660 --> 00:18:11.259
 as Peter.

00:18:11.600 --> 00:18:12.980
 He says it will come

00:18:12.980 --> 00:18:14.220
 on unbelievers

00:18:14.220 --> 00:18:15.860
 with sudden destruction

00:18:15.860 --> 00:18:17.980
 like a thief in the night.

00:18:18.800 --> 00:18:19.720
 And then he uses

00:18:19.720 --> 00:18:20.800
 the second image

00:18:20.800 --> 00:18:22.320
 in verse 3

00:18:22.320 --> 00:18:23.240
 to drive home the point,

00:18:23.320 --> 00:18:23.660
 doesn't he?

00:18:24.620 --> 00:18:25.640
 The day of the Lord

00:18:25.640 --> 00:18:27.340
 will come upon unbelievers

00:18:27.340 --> 00:18:29.120
 like labor

00:18:29.120 --> 00:18:30.759
 comes upon a pregnant woman.

00:18:31.759 --> 00:18:32.700
 And what does he mean?

00:18:32.700 --> 00:18:35.039
 It will be sudden

00:18:35.039 --> 00:18:38.420
 and once it starts

00:18:38.420 --> 00:18:40.740
 you can't stop it.

00:18:42.340 --> 00:18:43.660
 Charlie will be a year old

00:18:43.660 --> 00:18:45.019
 next month.

00:18:45.819 --> 00:18:46.960
 We went to bed

00:18:46.960 --> 00:18:48.100
 on March 20th.

00:18:48.539 --> 00:18:49.519
 Julie felt great.

00:18:50.160 --> 00:18:51.840
 I woke up on March 21st

00:18:51.840 --> 00:18:52.620
 and Julie said,

00:18:53.100 --> 00:18:53.880
 I think I need to go

00:18:53.880 --> 00:18:54.380
 to the hospital.

00:18:55.380 --> 00:18:56.620
 The labor pains came

00:18:56.620 --> 00:18:57.819
 suddenly

00:18:57.819 --> 00:18:59.160
 and there was nothing

00:18:59.160 --> 00:18:59.819
 I could do

00:18:59.819 --> 00:19:00.799
 to stop it

00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:01.339
 at that point.

00:19:02.779 --> 00:19:03.159
 Paul says,

00:19:03.259 --> 00:19:03.940
 that's what this day

00:19:03.940 --> 00:19:04.700
 will be like.

00:19:04.879 --> 00:19:05.559
 It's like a thief

00:19:05.559 --> 00:19:06.059
 in the night.

00:19:06.299 --> 00:19:07.039
 It's unexpected.

00:19:07.319 --> 00:19:08.200
 It's destructive.

00:19:10.139 --> 00:19:10.980
 It's going to come

00:19:10.980 --> 00:19:11.980
 with sudden destruction

00:19:11.980 --> 00:19:13.099
 like labor pains,

00:19:13.259 --> 00:19:14.559
 like a pregnant woman

00:19:14.559 --> 00:19:17.099
 and they will not escape.

00:19:18.059 --> 00:19:19.259
 Once it starts,

00:19:19.559 --> 00:19:20.619
 once it's here,

00:19:21.460 --> 00:19:22.720
 there's nothing you can do.

00:19:22.819 --> 00:19:23.659
 It will be too late.

00:19:25.659 --> 00:19:26.879
 Nothing you can offer,

00:19:27.659 --> 00:19:28.759
 nothing you can argue

00:19:28.759 --> 00:19:29.960
 on that day.

00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:31.799
 will turn away

00:19:31.799 --> 00:19:33.279
 the wrath of God.

00:19:35.119 --> 00:19:36.359
 Zephaniah 118.

00:19:37.779 --> 00:19:38.559
 God says,

00:19:38.680 --> 00:19:39.720
 neither their silver

00:19:39.720 --> 00:19:41.319
 nor their gold

00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:42.000
 shall be able

00:19:42.000 --> 00:19:43.000
 to deliver them

00:19:43.000 --> 00:19:44.139
 on the day

00:19:44.139 --> 00:19:44.759
 of the wrath

00:19:44.759 --> 00:19:45.279
 of the Lord.

00:19:46.339 --> 00:19:47.159
 In the fire

00:19:47.159 --> 00:19:47.960
 of his jealousy

00:19:47.960 --> 00:19:48.720
 all the earth

00:19:48.720 --> 00:19:49.720
 shall be consumed

00:19:49.720 --> 00:19:50.859
 for a full

00:19:50.859 --> 00:19:52.059
 and sudden end

00:19:52.059 --> 00:19:52.720
 he will make

00:19:52.720 --> 00:19:54.039
 of all the inhabitants

00:19:54.039 --> 00:19:54.759
 of the earth.

00:19:55.659 --> 00:19:57.220
 The reality is

00:19:57.220 --> 00:19:58.159
 that Jesus

00:19:58.159 --> 00:19:59.159
 is coming back

00:19:59.160 --> 00:20:00.360
 and though his

00:20:00.360 --> 00:20:01.060
 first coming

00:20:01.060 --> 00:20:02.040
 was to save,

00:20:02.380 --> 00:20:03.300
 his next one

00:20:03.300 --> 00:20:04.660
 will be to judge.

00:20:05.600 --> 00:20:06.620
 And if you do not

00:20:06.620 --> 00:20:07.560
 turn to Christ,

00:20:07.980 --> 00:20:08.800
 that day

00:20:08.800 --> 00:20:09.560
 will bring you

00:20:09.560 --> 00:20:10.600
 sudden destruction

00:20:10.600 --> 00:20:12.560
 and you cannot

00:20:12.560 --> 00:20:13.140
 escape.

00:20:15.519 --> 00:20:16.300
 That's why

00:20:16.300 --> 00:20:17.540
 over and over

00:20:17.540 --> 00:20:18.160
 again

00:20:18.160 --> 00:20:19.620
 the biblical writers

00:20:19.620 --> 00:20:20.300
 emphasize

00:20:20.300 --> 00:20:20.960
 today

00:20:20.960 --> 00:20:22.140
 is the day

00:20:22.140 --> 00:20:22.980
 of salvation.

00:20:23.640 --> 00:20:24.360
 Do not

00:20:24.360 --> 00:20:25.200
 delay.

00:20:26.420 --> 00:20:27.500
 Turn to God

00:20:27.500 --> 00:20:28.700
 while you can

00:20:28.700 --> 00:20:30.400
 because his

00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:30.980
 patience

00:20:30.980 --> 00:20:32.160
 will come

00:20:32.160 --> 00:20:32.940
 to an end.

00:20:34.660 --> 00:20:35.619
 It will come

00:20:35.619 --> 00:20:36.380
 to an end

00:20:36.380 --> 00:20:37.500
 on the day

00:20:37.500 --> 00:20:38.720
 that he is fixed

00:20:38.720 --> 00:20:40.660
 and once the day

00:20:40.660 --> 00:20:41.160
 comes

00:20:41.160 --> 00:20:42.779
 you can't stop it.

00:20:44.079 --> 00:20:44.660
 So Isaiah

00:20:44.660 --> 00:20:45.240
 says,

00:20:45.960 --> 00:20:46.740
 seek the Lord

00:20:46.740 --> 00:20:47.539
 while he may be

00:20:47.539 --> 00:20:48.039
 found.

00:20:48.680 --> 00:20:49.660
 Call upon him

00:20:49.660 --> 00:20:50.640
 while he is near.

00:20:51.299 --> 00:20:51.940
 Let the wicked

00:20:51.940 --> 00:20:53.099
 forsake his way

00:20:53.099 --> 00:20:54.559
 and the unrighteous

00:20:54.559 --> 00:20:55.700
 man his thoughts.

00:20:55.700 --> 00:20:57.100
 let him return

00:20:57.100 --> 00:20:57.860
 to the Lord

00:20:57.860 --> 00:20:59.039
 that he may have

00:20:59.039 --> 00:21:00.380
 compassion on him

00:21:00.380 --> 00:21:01.960
 and to our God

00:21:01.960 --> 00:21:03.140
 for he will

00:21:03.140 --> 00:21:04.279
 abundantly pardon.

00:21:05.980 --> 00:21:07.420
 What grace

00:21:07.420 --> 00:21:08.380
 of God

00:21:08.380 --> 00:21:09.000
 to say

00:21:09.000 --> 00:21:10.039
 I am coming

00:21:10.039 --> 00:21:10.720
 in judgment.

00:21:11.660 --> 00:21:12.360
 Come to me

00:21:12.360 --> 00:21:12.920
 now

00:21:12.920 --> 00:21:14.240
 for safety.

00:21:14.940 --> 00:21:15.740
 Come to me

00:21:15.740 --> 00:21:16.319
 now

00:21:16.319 --> 00:21:17.759
 for pardon.

00:21:19.660 --> 00:21:20.720
 Zephaniah 2

00:21:20.720 --> 00:21:22.160
 seek the Lord

00:21:22.160 --> 00:21:23.080
 all you humble

00:21:23.080 --> 00:21:23.840
 of the land

00:21:23.840 --> 00:21:24.680
 who do his

00:21:24.680 --> 00:21:25.400
 just command.

00:21:25.600 --> 00:21:26.440
 Seek righteousness.

00:21:26.940 --> 00:21:27.720
 Seek humility

00:21:27.720 --> 00:21:28.560
 before God.

00:21:28.940 --> 00:21:29.840
 Perhaps you may

00:21:29.840 --> 00:21:30.420
 be hidden

00:21:30.420 --> 00:21:31.519
 on the day

00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:32.560
 of the anger

00:21:32.560 --> 00:21:34.080
 of the Lord.

00:21:35.160 --> 00:21:36.120
 Hebrews 3

00:21:36.120 --> 00:21:37.340
 therefore

00:21:37.340 --> 00:21:38.340
 the Holy Spirit

00:21:38.340 --> 00:21:38.920
 says

00:21:38.920 --> 00:21:39.660
 today

00:21:39.660 --> 00:21:40.640
 if you hear

00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:41.440
 his voice

00:21:41.440 --> 00:21:42.840
 do not harden

00:21:42.840 --> 00:21:43.680
 your heart.

00:21:44.539 --> 00:21:44.900
 Why?

00:21:45.840 --> 00:21:46.960
 Because today

00:21:46.960 --> 00:21:48.340
 is the day.

00:21:49.019 --> 00:21:49.560
 Now

00:21:49.560 --> 00:21:51.299
 is the time.

00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:52.279
 And when

00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:53.320
 his day comes

00:21:53.319 --> 00:21:55.179
 there will be

00:21:55.179 --> 00:21:56.460
 no escape.

00:21:58.259 --> 00:21:59.139
 Why were

00:21:59.139 --> 00:21:59.559
 some of the

00:21:59.559 --> 00:22:00.319
 Thessalonians

00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:01.179
 anxious about

00:22:01.179 --> 00:22:01.960
 Christ's return?

00:22:02.919 --> 00:22:03.679
 It wasn't

00:22:03.679 --> 00:22:04.259
 because they

00:22:04.259 --> 00:22:05.500
 doubted him

00:22:05.500 --> 00:22:06.859
 and his gospel.

00:22:07.240 --> 00:22:08.099
 It was because

00:22:08.099 --> 00:22:08.939
 the reality

00:22:08.939 --> 00:22:09.859
 of his judgment

00:22:09.859 --> 00:22:11.259
 is absolutely

00:22:11.259 --> 00:22:12.240
 terrifying.

00:22:13.700 --> 00:22:15.139
 It's terrifying.

00:22:15.140 --> 00:22:18.300
 we will all

00:22:18.300 --> 00:22:18.920
 stand before

00:22:18.920 --> 00:22:19.460
 our maker

00:22:19.460 --> 00:22:21.220
 and only

00:22:21.220 --> 00:22:21.740
 those who

00:22:21.740 --> 00:22:22.360
 have obeyed

00:22:22.360 --> 00:22:22.860
 his word

00:22:22.860 --> 00:22:23.460
 by faith

00:22:23.460 --> 00:22:24.060
 will escape

00:22:24.060 --> 00:22:24.540
 his wrath.

00:22:25.540 --> 00:22:26.200
 And they

00:22:26.200 --> 00:22:26.820
 were fully

00:22:26.820 --> 00:22:27.480
 aware of it

00:22:27.480 --> 00:22:28.640
 and what

00:22:28.640 --> 00:22:29.160
 it produced

00:22:29.160 --> 00:22:29.580
 in them

00:22:29.580 --> 00:22:31.140
 was anxiety.

00:22:32.860 --> 00:22:33.360
 Now

00:22:33.360 --> 00:22:34.340
 that's the

00:22:34.340 --> 00:22:34.940
 reality of

00:22:34.940 --> 00:22:35.280
 the coming

00:22:35.280 --> 00:22:35.640
 judgment.

00:22:36.360 --> 00:22:37.060
 Now let's

00:22:37.060 --> 00:22:37.520
 look at the

00:22:37.520 --> 00:22:38.320
 reassurances

00:22:38.320 --> 00:22:39.920
 for believers.

00:22:40.520 --> 00:22:41.020
 The

00:22:41.020 --> 00:22:41.580
 reassurances

00:22:41.580 --> 00:22:42.120
 for believers.

00:22:42.119 --> 00:22:43.099
 Now the

00:22:43.099 --> 00:22:43.699
 verse around

00:22:43.699 --> 00:22:44.299
 which all

00:22:44.299 --> 00:22:44.819
 of this is

00:22:44.819 --> 00:22:45.359
 revolving

00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:45.819
 is verse

00:22:45.819 --> 00:22:46.179
 four.

00:22:46.299 --> 00:22:46.619
 Look at it

00:22:46.619 --> 00:22:47.079
 with me.

00:22:48.139 --> 00:22:48.439
 But you

00:22:48.439 --> 00:22:48.899
 are not

00:22:48.899 --> 00:22:49.500
 in darkness

00:22:49.500 --> 00:22:49.979
 brothers

00:22:49.979 --> 00:22:51.439
 for that

00:22:51.439 --> 00:22:51.939
 day to

00:22:51.939 --> 00:22:52.859
 surprise you

00:22:52.859 --> 00:22:54.239
 like a

00:22:54.239 --> 00:22:54.539
 thief.

00:22:55.979 --> 00:22:56.559
 Do you

00:22:56.559 --> 00:22:56.939
 see the

00:22:56.939 --> 00:22:57.459
 reassurance

00:22:57.459 --> 00:22:57.959
 coming in

00:22:57.959 --> 00:22:58.199
 now?

00:22:59.139 --> 00:22:59.279
 Do you

00:22:59.279 --> 00:22:59.479
 see what

00:22:59.479 --> 00:22:59.699
 Paul's

00:22:59.699 --> 00:22:59.959
 doing?

00:23:01.079 --> 00:23:01.739
 The first

00:23:01.739 --> 00:23:02.239
 three verses

00:23:02.239 --> 00:23:03.000
 he recognizes

00:23:03.000 --> 00:23:03.399
 that they

00:23:03.399 --> 00:23:03.899
 have questions

00:23:03.899 --> 00:23:04.559
 about this

00:23:04.559 --> 00:23:05.619
 and he

00:23:05.619 --> 00:23:05.939
 says the

00:23:05.939 --> 00:23:06.199
 day of

00:23:06.199 --> 00:23:06.519
 the Lord

00:23:06.519 --> 00:23:06.819
 the day

00:23:06.819 --> 00:23:07.259
 of judgment

00:23:07.259 --> 00:23:07.799
 it's coming

00:23:07.799 --> 00:23:08.379
 like a thief

00:23:08.379 --> 00:23:08.779
 in the night

00:23:08.779 --> 00:23:09.239
 it's coming

00:23:09.239 --> 00:23:09.719
 with sudden

00:23:09.719 --> 00:23:10.199
 destruction

00:23:10.200 --> 00:23:10.640
 it's coming

00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:11.480
 like labor

00:23:11.480 --> 00:23:11.920
 pains

00:23:11.920 --> 00:23:12.420
 on a

00:23:12.420 --> 00:23:12.660
 pregnant

00:23:12.660 --> 00:23:12.980
 woman

00:23:12.980 --> 00:23:13.340
 once it

00:23:13.340 --> 00:23:13.720
 starts

00:23:13.720 --> 00:23:14.600
 it will

00:23:14.600 --> 00:23:15.259
 not stop

00:23:15.259 --> 00:23:16.160
 and those

00:23:16.160 --> 00:23:16.660
 who are

00:23:16.660 --> 00:23:17.100
 subject

00:23:17.100 --> 00:23:17.640
 to his

00:23:17.640 --> 00:23:18.059
 wrath

00:23:18.059 --> 00:23:18.920
 will not

00:23:18.920 --> 00:23:19.640
 escape it

00:23:19.640 --> 00:23:20.039
 and then

00:23:20.039 --> 00:23:20.620
 immediately

00:23:20.620 --> 00:23:21.400
 he says

00:23:21.400 --> 00:23:22.400
 but you

00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:23.000
 brothers

00:23:23.000 --> 00:23:24.059
 you're not

00:23:24.059 --> 00:23:24.299
 in the

00:23:24.299 --> 00:23:24.660
 darkness

00:23:24.660 --> 00:23:26.220
 that day

00:23:26.220 --> 00:23:26.640
 will not

00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:27.700
 surprise you

00:23:27.700 --> 00:23:28.799
 like a

00:23:28.799 --> 00:23:29.240
 thief in

00:23:29.240 --> 00:23:29.799
 the night

00:23:29.799 --> 00:23:32.400
 it's like

00:23:32.400 --> 00:23:32.700
 all the

00:23:32.700 --> 00:23:33.319
 tension is

00:23:33.319 --> 00:23:34.000
 building at

00:23:34.000 --> 00:23:34.400
 this point

00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:34.920
 the tension

00:23:34.920 --> 00:23:35.539
 is building

00:23:35.539 --> 00:23:35.819
 in the

00:23:35.819 --> 00:23:36.259
 first three

00:23:36.259 --> 00:23:36.600
 verses

00:23:36.600 --> 00:23:37.000
 and it's

00:23:37.000 --> 00:23:37.519
 like whoever

00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:38.080
 is reading

00:23:38.080 --> 00:23:38.640
 this letter

00:23:38.640 --> 00:23:39.240
 to the church

00:23:39.240 --> 00:23:40.080
 in Thessalonica

00:23:40.079 --> 00:23:40.599
 at the time

00:23:40.599 --> 00:23:40.919
 that it

00:23:40.919 --> 00:23:41.579
 is delivered

00:23:41.579 --> 00:23:41.980
 to them

00:23:41.980 --> 00:23:42.500
 it's like

00:23:42.500 --> 00:23:42.799
 they can

00:23:42.799 --> 00:23:43.139
 take a

00:23:43.139 --> 00:23:43.559
 collective

00:23:43.559 --> 00:23:44.339
 deep breath

00:23:44.339 --> 00:23:44.599
 now

00:23:44.599 --> 00:23:44.980
 a sigh

00:23:44.980 --> 00:23:45.579
 of relief

00:23:45.579 --> 00:23:46.859
 tension

00:23:46.859 --> 00:23:47.319
 tension

00:23:47.319 --> 00:23:47.779
 tension

00:23:47.779 --> 00:23:48.259
 judgment

00:23:48.259 --> 00:23:48.699
 judgment

00:23:48.699 --> 00:23:49.119
 judgment

00:23:49.119 --> 00:23:49.379
 but

00:23:49.379 --> 00:23:50.599
 but you're

00:23:50.599 --> 00:23:51.059
 safe

00:23:51.059 --> 00:23:54.639
 we're safe

00:23:54.639 --> 00:23:56.740
 notice the

00:23:56.740 --> 00:23:57.159
 language

00:23:57.159 --> 00:23:58.819

00:23:58.819 --> 00:23:59.539

 distinct

00:24:02.639 --> 00:24:03.319
 contrast

00:24:03.319 --> 00:24:04.659
 to the

00:24:04.659 --> 00:24:05.359
 people

00:24:05.359 --> 00:24:06.339
 in verse

00:24:06.339 --> 00:24:06.679
 three

00:24:06.679 --> 00:24:07.199
 there's two

00:24:07.199 --> 00:24:07.819
 different groups

00:24:07.819 --> 00:24:08.220
 at play

00:24:13.700 --> 00:24:14.299
 devastating

00:24:31.359 --> 00:24:31.819
 people

00:24:31.819 --> 00:24:32.539
 like a

00:24:32.539 --> 00:24:32.839
 thief in

00:24:32.839 --> 00:24:33.099
 the night

00:24:33.099 --> 00:24:33.400
 but it

00:24:33.400 --> 00:24:33.839

00:29:41.879 --> 00:29:42.000
 us

00:29:42.000 --> 00:29:42.200
 keep

00:29:42.200 --> 00:29:42.519
 awake

00:29:42.519 --> 00:29:42.700
 and

00:29:42.700 --> 00:29:42.859
 be

00:29:42.859 --> 00:29:43.200
 sober

00:29:43.200 --> 00:29:43.440
 for

00:29:43.440 --> 00:29:43.700
 those

00:29:43.700 --> 00:29:43.859
 who

00:29:43.859 --> 00:29:44.279
 sleep

00:29:44.279 --> 00:29:44.559
 sleep

00:29:44.559 --> 00:29:44.720
 at

00:29:44.720 --> 00:29:44.980
 night

00:29:44.980 --> 00:29:45.259
 those

00:29:45.259 --> 00:29:45.379
 who

00:29:45.379 --> 00:29:45.519
 get

00:29:45.519 --> 00:29:45.920
 drunk

00:29:45.920 --> 00:29:46.079
 are

00:29:46.079 --> 00:29:46.259
 drunk

00:29:46.259 --> 00:29:46.420
 at

00:29:46.420 --> 00:29:46.819
 night

00:29:46.819 --> 00:29:47.559
 but

00:29:47.559 --> 00:29:47.900
 since

00:29:47.900 --> 00:29:48.140
 we

00:29:48.140 --> 00:29:48.599
 belong

00:29:48.599 --> 00:29:48.799
 to

00:29:48.799 --> 00:29:48.940
 the

00:29:48.940 --> 00:29:49.320
 day

00:29:49.320 --> 00:29:50.519
 let

00:29:50.519 --> 00:29:50.680
 us

00:29:50.680 --> 00:29:50.900
 be

00:29:50.900 --> 00:29:51.299
 sober

00:29:51.299 --> 00:29:52.840
 having

00:29:52.840 --> 00:29:53.080
 put

00:29:53.080 --> 00:29:53.200
 on

00:29:53.200 --> 00:29:53.320
 the

00:29:53.320 --> 00:29:53.799
 breastplate

00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:53.960
 of

00:29:53.960 --> 00:29:54.320
 faith

00:29:54.320 --> 00:29:54.500
 and

00:29:54.500 --> 00:29:54.920
 love

00:29:54.920 --> 00:29:55.620
 and

00:29:55.620 --> 00:29:55.820
 for

00:29:55.820 --> 00:29:56.019
 a

00:29:56.019 --> 00:29:56.360
 helmet

00:29:56.360 --> 00:29:57.480
 a

00:29:57.480 --> 00:29:57.640
 hope

00:29:57.640 --> 00:29:57.820
 of

00:29:57.820 --> 00:29:58.400
 salvation

00:29:58.400 --> 00:29:59.980
 now

00:29:59.980 --> 00:30:00.140
 this

00:30:00.140 --> 00:30:00.340
 gives

00:30:00.340 --> 00:30:00.519
 us

00:30:00.519 --> 00:30:00.759
 another

00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:01.180
 clue

00:30:01.180 --> 00:30:01.559
 into

00:30:01.559 --> 00:30:02.519
 another

00:30:02.519 --> 00:30:02.900
 likely

00:30:02.900 --> 00:30:03.380
 source

00:30:03.380 --> 00:30:03.519
 of

00:30:03.519 --> 00:30:03.660
 their

00:30:03.660 --> 00:30:04.220
 anxiety

00:30:04.220 --> 00:30:06.720
 why

00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:06.920
 did

00:30:06.920 --> 00:30:07.200
 I

00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:07.840
 fear

00:30:07.840 --> 00:30:08.920
 the

00:30:08.920 --> 00:30:09.360
 arrival

00:30:09.360 --> 00:30:09.580
 of

00:30:09.580 --> 00:30:09.700
 the

00:30:09.700 --> 00:30:10.059
 report

00:30:10.059 --> 00:30:10.320
 card

00:30:10.320 --> 00:30:10.460
 in

00:30:10.460 --> 00:30:10.660
 high

00:30:10.660 --> 00:30:10.900
 school

00:30:10.900 --> 00:30:13.940
 because

00:30:13.940 --> 00:30:14.120
 I

00:30:14.120 --> 00:30:14.380
 knew

00:30:14.380 --> 00:30:14.620
 I

00:30:14.620 --> 00:30:14.920
 hadn't

00:30:14.920 --> 00:30:15.220
 obeyed

00:30:15.220 --> 00:30:15.360
 my

00:30:15.360 --> 00:30:15.799
 parents

00:30:15.799 --> 00:30:16.019
 and

00:30:16.019 --> 00:30:16.180
 that

00:30:16.180 --> 00:30:16.320
 I

00:30:16.320 --> 00:30:16.840
 deserved

00:30:16.840 --> 00:30:17.160
 their

00:30:17.160 --> 00:30:17.660
 punishment

00:30:17.660 --> 00:30:18.080
 for

00:30:18.080 --> 00:30:18.340
 my

00:30:18.340 --> 00:30:18.920
 disobedience

00:30:18.940 --> 00:30:19.640
 right

00:30:19.640 --> 00:30:22.259
 why

00:30:22.259 --> 00:30:22.539
 might

00:30:22.539 --> 00:30:22.820
 some

00:30:22.820 --> 00:30:22.920
 of

00:30:22.920 --> 00:30:23.059
 the

00:30:23.059 --> 00:30:23.779
 Thessalonians

00:30:23.779 --> 00:30:23.980
 have

00:30:23.980 --> 00:30:24.160
 been

00:30:24.160 --> 00:30:24.460
 anxious

00:30:24.460 --> 00:30:24.779
 about

00:30:24.779 --> 00:30:25.140
 Christ's

00:30:25.140 --> 00:30:25.480
 return

00:30:25.480 --> 00:30:27.380
 because

00:30:27.380 --> 00:30:27.759
 they

00:30:27.759 --> 00:30:28.259
 were

00:30:28.259 --> 00:30:29.380
 children

00:30:29.380 --> 00:30:29.580
 of

00:30:29.580 --> 00:30:29.720
 the

00:30:29.720 --> 00:30:30.000
 light

00:30:30.000 --> 00:30:31.600
 they

00:30:31.600 --> 00:30:31.840
 weren't

00:30:31.840 --> 00:30:32.140
 living

00:30:32.140 --> 00:30:32.400
 like

00:30:32.400 --> 00:30:32.680
 people

00:30:32.680 --> 00:30:32.860
 of

00:30:32.860 --> 00:30:32.980
 the

00:30:32.980 --> 00:30:33.240
 light

00:30:33.240 --> 00:30:35.740
 perhaps

00:30:35.740 --> 00:30:36.080
 some

00:30:36.080 --> 00:30:36.180
 of

00:30:36.180 --> 00:30:36.299
 their

00:30:36.299 --> 00:30:36.620
 lives

00:30:36.620 --> 00:30:36.799
 looked

00:30:36.799 --> 00:30:37.000
 more

00:30:37.000 --> 00:30:37.200
 like

00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:37.500
 those

00:30:37.500 --> 00:30:37.620
 who

00:30:37.620 --> 00:30:37.720
 were

00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:37.880
 in

00:30:37.880 --> 00:30:38.299
 darkness

00:30:38.299 --> 00:30:39.660
 and

00:30:39.660 --> 00:30:39.840
 they

00:30:39.840 --> 00:30:40.080
 knew

00:30:40.080 --> 00:30:40.299
 they

00:30:40.299 --> 00:30:40.500
 were

00:30:40.500 --> 00:30:41.059
 worthy

00:30:41.059 --> 00:30:41.059


00:30:42.420 --> 00:30:42.660
 of

00:30:42.660 --> 00:30:43.039
 God's

00:30:43.039 --> 00:30:43.320
 wrath

00:30:43.320 --> 00:30:47.100
 now

00:30:47.100 --> 00:30:47.299
 let's

00:30:47.299 --> 00:30:47.460
 get

00:30:47.460 --> 00:30:47.820
 something

00:30:47.820 --> 00:30:48.299
 clear

00:30:48.299 --> 00:30:50.259
 neither

00:30:50.259 --> 00:30:50.579
 their

00:30:50.579 --> 00:30:51.200
 assurance

00:30:51.200 --> 00:30:52.279
 nor

 your

00:30:52.759 --> 00:30:53.579
 assurance

00:30:53.579 --> 00:30:54.740
 can

00:30:54.740 --> 00:30:55.259
 rest

00:30:55.259 --> 00:30:55.480
 on

00:30:55.480 --> 00:30:55.740
 any

00:30:56.819 --> 00:30:57.240
 effort

00:30:57.240 --> 00:30:58.480
 that

00:30:58.480 --> 00:30:58.639
 is

00:30:58.639 --> 00:30:58.919
 not

00:30:58.919 --> 00:30:59.099
 the

00:30:59.099 --> 00:30:59.419
 foundation

00:30:59.419 --> 00:30:59.779
 of

00:30:59.779 --> 00:31:00.119
 assurance

00:31:00.119 --> 00:31:00.359
 in

00:31:01.960 --> 00:31:03.440
 Paul's

00:31:03.440 --> 00:31:03.619
 not

00:31:03.619 --> 00:31:04.240
 insinuating

00:31:04.240 --> 00:31:04.659
 here

00:31:04.659 --> 00:31:04.919
 that

00:31:04.919 --> 00:31:05.119
 their

00:31:05.119 --> 00:31:05.559
 obedience

00:31:05.559 --> 00:31:05.879
 is

00:31:05.879 --> 00:31:06.099
 the

00:31:06.099 --> 00:31:06.460
 basis

00:31:06.460 --> 00:31:06.720
 of

 their

00:31:06.879 --> 00:31:07.379
 assurance

00:31:07.379 --> 00:31:07.559
 of

00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:07.940
 escaping

00:31:07.940 --> 00:31:08.319
 God's

00:31:08.319 --> 00:31:08.579
 judgment

00:31:08.579 --> 00:31:10.099
 you

00:31:10.099 --> 00:31:10.259
 can

00:31:10.259 --> 00:31:10.379
 be

00:31:10.379 --> 00:31:10.539
 the

00:31:10.539 --> 00:31:10.740
 most

00:31:10.740 --> 00:31:11.099
 moral

00:31:11.099 --> 00:31:11.559
 person

00:31:12.079 --> 00:31:12.279

 still

00:31:12.519 --> 00:31:12.720
 go

00:31:12.720 --> 00:31:12.899
 to

00:31:12.899 --> 00:31:13.220
 hell

00:31:13.220 --> 00:31:14.860
 Jesus

00:31:14.860 --> 00:31:15.220
 made

 clear

00:31:15.799 --> 00:31:18.319
 our

00:31:18.319 --> 00:31:18.880
 assurance

00:31:18.880 --> 00:31:19.299
 rests

00:31:19.299 --> 00:31:20.279
 entirely

00:31:20.279 --> 00:31:21.740
 on

 our

 Christ

00:31:24.799 --> 00:31:26.200
 that

00:31:26.200 --> 00:31:26.600
 we

00:31:26.600 --> 00:31:26.860
 are

00:31:26.860 --> 00:31:27.299
 children

00:31:27.299 --> 00:31:27.559
 of

00:31:27.559 --> 00:31:27.720
 the

00:31:27.720 --> 00:31:28.039
 light

00:31:28.039 --> 00:31:28.460
 not

00:31:28.460 --> 00:31:28.680
 that

00:31:28.680 --> 00:31:28.860
 we

00:31:28.860 --> 00:31:29.019
 are

00:31:29.019 --> 00:31:29.440
 somehow

00:31:29.440 --> 00:31:30.039
 worthy

00:31:30.039 --> 00:31:30.259
 of

00:31:30.259 --> 00:31:30.400
 the

 we

00:31:31.779 --> 00:31:32.660
 belong

00:31:32.660 --> 00:31:33.700
 to

00:31:33.700 --> 00:31:33.900
 the

 light

00:31:34.319 --> 00:31:36.900
 now

00:31:36.900 --> 00:31:37.079
 that

00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:37.299
 being

00:31:37.299 --> 00:31:37.880
 said

 feel

 you're

00:34:47.019 --> 00:34:47.099

 you're

00:34:53.820 --> 00:34:54.220
 destined

00:34:54.220 --> 00:34:57.019
 now let's

00:34:57.019 --> 00:34:57.480
 just catch up

00:34:57.480 --> 00:34:57.740
 on where

 here's the

00:34:59.519 --> 00:35:00.119
 reality of

00:35:00.119 --> 00:35:00.380
 judgment

00:35:00.380 --> 00:35:00.539
 it's

00:35:00.539 --> 00:35:00.639
 going to

00:35:00.639 --> 00:35:00.760
 be

00:35:00.760 --> 00:35:01.119
 terrible

00:35:01.119 --> 00:35:01.340
 it's

00:35:01.340 --> 00:35:01.480
 going to

00:35:01.480 --> 00:35:01.619
 be

00:35:01.619 --> 00:35:01.880
 sudden

00:35:01.880 --> 00:35:02.079
 it's

00:35:02.079 --> 00:35:02.180
 going to

00:35:02.180 --> 00:35:02.280
 be

00:35:02.280 --> 00:35:02.720
 destructive

00:35:02.720 --> 00:35:02.980
 and

00:35:02.980 --> 00:35:03.180
 once

00:35:03.180 --> 00:35:03.300
 it

00:35:03.300 --> 00:35:03.539
 starts

00:35:03.539 --> 00:35:03.680
 you

00:35:03.680 --> 00:35:03.940
 can't

00:35:03.940 --> 00:35:04.220
 escape

00:35:04.220 --> 00:35:04.380
 it

00:35:04.380 --> 00:35:04.640
 that's

00:35:04.640 --> 00:35:05.039
 bad

00:35:05.039 --> 00:35:06.019
 big

00:35:06.019 --> 00:35:06.440
 problem

00:35:06.920 --> 00:35:07.240
 tension

00:35:07.240 --> 00:35:07.860
 and

00:35:07.860 --> 00:35:08.000
 then

00:35:08.000 --> 00:35:08.420
 he

 the

00:35:08.860 --> 00:35:09.099
 tension

00:35:09.099 --> 00:35:09.260
 and

00:35:09.260 --> 00:35:09.380
 he

00:35:09.380 --> 00:35:09.559
 says

00:35:09.559 --> 00:35:09.720
 but

00:35:14.820 --> 00:35:14.980
 not

 he

00:35:17.660 --> 00:35:17.820
 says

00:35:21.620 --> 00:35:22.260
 second

00:40:33.019 --> 00:40:33.299
 two

00:40:33.299 --> 00:40:34.179
 reassurances

00:40:34.179 --> 00:40:34.519
 for

00:40:34.519 --> 00:40:34.940
 believers

00:40:34.940 --> 00:40:35.219
 and

00:40:35.219 --> 00:40:35.379
 now

00:40:35.379 --> 00:40:35.559
 we

00:40:35.559 --> 00:40:35.859
 see

00:40:35.859 --> 00:40:36.539
 the

00:40:36.539 --> 00:40:36.839
 proper

00:40:36.839 --> 00:40:37.639
 response

00:40:37.639 --> 00:40:38.599
 to

00:40:38.599 --> 00:40:38.879
 Christ

00:40:38.879 --> 00:40:39.460
 salvation

00:40:39.460 --> 00:40:40.799
 how

00:40:40.799 --> 00:40:40.940
 are

00:40:40.940 --> 00:40:41.059
 we

00:40:41.059 --> 00:40:41.219
 to

00:40:41.219 --> 00:40:41.659
 respond

00:40:41.659 --> 00:40:41.839
 to

00:40:41.839 --> 00:40:42.019
 these

00:40:42.019 --> 00:40:42.319
 things

00:40:42.319 --> 00:40:42.579
 Paul

00:40:42.579 --> 00:40:42.859
 gives

00:40:42.859 --> 00:40:43.039
 us

00:40:43.039 --> 00:40:43.339
 another

00:40:43.339 --> 00:40:43.980
 inference

00:40:43.980 --> 00:40:44.159
 he

00:40:44.159 --> 00:40:44.539
 did

00:40:44.539 --> 00:40:44.679
 the

00:40:44.679 --> 00:40:44.839
 same

00:40:44.839 --> 00:40:44.980
 thing

00:40:44.980 --> 00:40:45.079
 in

00:40:45.079 --> 00:40:45.239
 chapter

00:40:45.239 --> 00:40:45.519
 4

00:40:45.519 --> 00:40:45.739
 didn't

00:40:45.739 --> 00:40:45.899
 he

00:40:45.899 --> 00:40:46.319
 he

00:40:46.319 --> 00:40:46.500
 gets

00:40:46.500 --> 00:40:46.619
 to

00:40:46.619 --> 00:40:46.739
 the

00:40:46.739 --> 00:40:46.899
 end

00:40:46.899 --> 00:40:47.019
 and

00:40:47.019 --> 00:40:47.099
 he

00:40:47.099 --> 00:40:47.259
 says

00:40:47.259 --> 00:40:47.480
 because

00:40:47.480 --> 00:40:47.819
 of

00:40:47.819 --> 00:40:47.980
 all

00:40:47.980 --> 00:40:48.119
 of

00:40:48.119 --> 00:40:48.379
 this

00:40:48.379 --> 00:40:48.559
 this

00:40:48.559 --> 00:40:48.719
 is

00:40:48.719 --> 00:40:48.859
 what

00:40:48.859 --> 00:40:49.019
 I

00:40:49.019 --> 00:40:49.019


00:40:49.019 --> 00:40:50.000
 think

00:40:50.000 --> 00:40:50.119
 you

00:40:50.119 --> 00:40:50.319
 should

00:40:50.319 --> 00:40:50.619
 do

00:40:50.619 --> 00:40:50.839
 and

00:40:50.839 --> 00:40:51.099
 he

00:40:51.099 --> 00:40:51.259
 does

00:40:51.259 --> 00:40:51.399
 the

00:40:51.399 --> 00:40:51.559
 same

00:40:51.559 --> 00:40:51.759
 thing

00:40:51.759 --> 00:40:51.959
 here

00:40:51.959 --> 00:40:52.179
 verse

00:40:52.179 --> 00:40:52.539
 11

00:40:52.539 --> 00:40:52.939
 therefore

00:40:52.939 --> 00:40:53.419
 because

00:40:53.419 --> 00:40:53.719
 of

00:40:53.719 --> 00:40:53.899
 all

00:40:53.899 --> 00:40:54.019
 of

00:40:54.019 --> 00:40:54.399
 this

00:40:54.399 --> 00:40:56.559
 encourage

00:40:56.559 --> 00:40:56.799
 one

00:40:56.799 --> 00:40:57.139
 another

00:40:57.139 --> 00:40:58.799
 and

00:40:58.799 --> 00:40:59.199
 build

00:40:59.199 --> 00:40:59.439
 one

00:40:59.439 --> 00:40:59.719
 another

00:40:59.719 --> 00:41:00.119
 up

00:41:00.119 --> 00:41:01.759
 just

00:41:01.759 --> 00:41:01.980
 as

00:41:01.980 --> 00:41:02.099
 you

00:41:02.099 --> 00:41:02.239
 are

00:41:02.239 --> 00:41:02.500
 doing

00:41:02.500 --> 00:41:03.759
 just

00:41:03.759 --> 00:41:03.919
 as

00:41:03.919 --> 00:41:04.019
 you

00:41:04.019 --> 00:41:04.299
 doing

00:41:04.300 --> 00:41:06.360
 just

00:41:06.360 --> 00:41:06.519
 as

00:41:06.519 --> 00:41:06.700
 in

00:41:06.700 --> 00:41:07.000
 4

00:41:07.000 --> 00:41:07.440
 13

00:41:07.440 --> 00:41:07.580
 to

00:41:07.580 --> 00:41:08.019
 18

00:41:08.019 --> 00:41:08.300
 Paul

00:41:08.300 --> 00:41:08.700
 closes

00:41:08.700 --> 00:41:08.980
 with

00:41:08.980 --> 00:41:09.120
 an

00:41:09.120 --> 00:41:09.440
 important

00:41:09.440 --> 00:41:10.140
 application

00:41:10.140 --> 00:41:12.140
 so

00:41:12.140 --> 00:41:12.300
 he

00:41:12.300 --> 00:41:12.460
 does

00:41:12.460 --> 00:41:12.580
 it

00:41:12.580 --> 00:41:12.860
 here

00:41:12.860 --> 00:41:13.840
 he

00:41:13.840 --> 00:41:14.060
 wants

00:41:14.060 --> 00:41:14.220
 them

00:41:14.220 --> 00:41:14.360
 to

00:41:14.360 --> 00:41:14.539
 be

00:41:14.539 --> 00:41:15.000
 comforted

00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:15.120
 in

00:41:15.120 --> 00:41:15.280
 their

00:41:15.280 --> 00:41:15.800
 anxiety

00:41:15.800 --> 00:41:17.519
 why

00:41:17.519 --> 00:41:18.800
 because

00:41:18.800 --> 00:41:19.019
 there

00:41:19.019 --> 00:41:19.180
 was

00:41:19.180 --> 00:41:19.400
 no

00:41:19.400 --> 00:41:19.900
 reason

00:41:19.900 --> 00:41:20.120
 for

00:41:20.120 --> 00:41:20.260
 them

00:41:20.260 --> 00:41:20.460
 to

00:41:20.460 --> 00:41:20.720
 fear

00:41:20.720 --> 00:41:23.380
 and

00:41:23.380 --> 00:41:23.600
 based

00:41:23.600 --> 00:41:23.740
 on

00:41:23.740 --> 00:41:24.019
 everything

00:41:24.019 --> 00:41:24.260
 that

00:41:24.260 --> 00:41:24.400
 he's

00:41:24.400 --> 00:41:24.600
 just

00:41:24.600 --> 00:41:24.880
 written

00:41:24.880 --> 00:41:25.100
 he

00:41:25.100 --> 00:41:25.420
 issues

00:41:25.420 --> 00:41:25.680
 two

00:41:25.680 --> 00:41:26.260
 applications

00:41:26.260 --> 00:41:26.560
 for

00:41:26.560 --> 00:41:26.880
 them

00:41:26.880 --> 00:41:27.720
 and

00:41:27.720 --> 00:41:27.920
 for

00:41:27.920 --> 00:41:28.360
 us

00:41:28.360 --> 00:41:29.780
 first

00:41:29.780 --> 00:41:31.180
 we

00:41:31.180 --> 00:41:31.340
 are

00:41:31.340 --> 00:41:31.700
 to

00:41:31.700 --> 00:41:33.100
 encourage

00:41:33.100 --> 00:41:33.519
 one

00:41:33.519 --> 00:41:33.880
 another

00:41:33.880 --> 00:41:34.580
 how

00:41:34.580 --> 00:41:35.700
 with

00:41:35.700 --> 00:41:35.920
 the

00:41:35.920 --> 00:41:36.600
 assurances

00:41:36.600 --> 00:41:37.800
 provided

00:41:37.800 --> 00:41:38.220
 in the

00:41:38.220 --> 00:41:38.640
 gospel

00:41:38.640 --> 00:41:39.980
 provided

00:41:39.980 --> 00:41:40.480
 in this

00:41:40.480 --> 00:41:40.920
 text

00:41:40.920 --> 00:41:43.900
 this

00:41:43.900 --> 00:41:44.240
 means

00:41:44.240 --> 00:41:44.460
 that

00:41:44.460 --> 00:41:44.620
 it's

00:41:44.620 --> 00:41:45.060
 inevitable

00:41:45.059 --> 00:41:45.440
 that

00:41:45.440 --> 00:41:45.779
 some

00:41:45.779 --> 00:41:45.940
 of

00:41:45.940 --> 00:41:46.159
 us

00:41:46.159 --> 00:41:46.420
 will

00:41:46.420 --> 00:41:46.820
 battle

00:41:46.820 --> 00:41:47.159
 with

00:41:47.159 --> 00:41:47.460
 some

00:41:47.460 --> 00:41:47.579
 of

00:41:47.579 --> 00:41:47.719
 the

00:41:47.719 --> 00:41:48.019
 same

00:41:48.019 --> 00:41:49.099
 uncertainties

00:41:49.099 --> 00:41:49.759
 that

00:41:49.759 --> 00:41:50.099
 the

00:41:50.099 --> 00:41:51.019
 Thessalonians

00:41:51.019 --> 00:41:51.659
 experience

00:41:51.659 --> 00:41:53.960
 do

00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:54.199
 not

00:41:54.199 --> 00:41:54.440
 be

00:41:54.440 --> 00:41:55.079
 surprised

00:41:55.079 --> 00:41:56.420
 when

00:41:56.420 --> 00:41:56.519
 you

00:41:56.519 --> 00:41:56.699
 have

00:41:56.699 --> 00:41:56.820
 a

00:41:56.820 --> 00:41:57.159
 day

00:41:57.159 --> 00:41:58.159
 when

00:41:58.159 --> 00:41:58.299
 you

00:41:58.299 --> 00:41:58.679
 just

00:41:58.679 --> 00:41:59.219
 feel

00:41:59.219 --> 00:42:00.420
 uncertain

00:42:00.420 --> 00:42:01.599
 not

00:42:01.599 --> 00:42:02.019
 because

00:42:02.019 --> 00:42:02.239
 your

00:42:02.239 --> 00:42:02.539
 faith

00:42:02.539 --> 00:42:02.739
 has

00:42:02.739 --> 00:42:03.099
 wavered

00:42:03.099 --> 00:42:03.219
 in

00:42:03.219 --> 00:42:03.579
 Christ

00:42:03.579 --> 00:42:05.119
 but

00:42:05.119 --> 00:42:05.519
 because

00:42:05.519 --> 00:42:05.719
 the

00:42:05.719 --> 00:42:06.199
 prospect

00:42:06.199 --> 00:42:06.639
 of

00:42:06.639 --> 00:42:06.779
 the

00:42:06.779 --> 00:42:07.019
 coming

00:42:07.019 --> 00:42:07.480
 judgment

00:42:07.480 --> 00:42:07.980
 perhaps

00:42:07.980 --> 00:42:08.559
 combined

00:42:08.559 --> 00:42:08.880
 with

00:42:08.880 --> 00:42:09.079
 the

00:42:09.079 --> 00:42:09.460
 presence

00:42:09.460 --> 00:42:09.719
 of

00:42:09.719 --> 00:42:09.920
 sin

00:42:09.920 --> 00:42:10.059
 in

00:42:10.059 --> 00:42:10.179
 your

00:42:10.179 --> 00:42:10.380
 own

00:42:10.380 --> 00:42:10.679
 life

00:42:10.679 --> 00:42:10.920
 has

00:42:10.920 --> 00:42:11.199
 caused

00:42:11.199 --> 00:42:11.380
 you

00:42:11.380 --> 00:42:11.539
 to

00:42:11.539 --> 00:42:11.779
 feel

00:42:11.779 --> 00:42:12.719
 uncertain

00:42:12.719 --> 00:42:13.320
 and

00:42:13.320 --> 00:42:13.920
 what

00:42:13.920 --> 00:42:14.119
 will

00:42:14.119 --> 00:42:14.279
 be

00:42:14.279 --> 00:42:14.500
 your

00:42:14.500 --> 00:42:14.860
 help

00:42:14.860 --> 00:42:15.000
 in

00:42:15.000 --> 00:42:15.200
 those

00:42:15.200 --> 00:42:15.620
 moments

00:42:15.620 --> 00:42:18.420
 for

00:42:18.420 --> 00:42:18.680
 another

00:42:18.680 --> 00:42:19.059
 faithful

00:42:19.059 --> 00:42:19.559
 Christian

00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:20.640
 that

00:42:20.640 --> 00:42:20.900
 loves

00:42:20.900 --> 00:42:21.140
 you

00:42:21.140 --> 00:42:22.360
 to

00:42:22.360 --> 00:42:22.579
 say

00:42:22.579 --> 00:42:22.860
 take

00:42:22.860 --> 00:42:23.280
 courage

00:42:23.280 --> 00:42:24.840
 you

00:42:24.840 --> 00:42:24.980
 are

00:42:24.980 --> 00:42:25.180
 not

00:42:25.180 --> 00:42:25.320
 of

00:42:25.320 --> 00:42:25.440
 the

00:42:25.440 --> 00:42:25.880
 darkness

00:42:25.880 --> 00:42:27.720
 that

00:42:27.720 --> 00:42:27.880
 day

00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:28.039
 will

00:42:28.440 --> 00:42:28.720
 upon

00:42:28.720 --> 00:42:28.880
 you

00:42:28.880 --> 00:42:29.180
 like a

00:42:29.180 --> 00:42:29.340
 thief

00:42:29.340 --> 00:42:29.460
 in

00:42:29.460 --> 00:42:29.579
 the

00:42:29.579 --> 00:42:29.860
 night

00:42:29.860 --> 00:42:30.640
 you're

00:42:30.640 --> 00:42:30.740
 of

00:42:30.740 --> 00:42:30.860
 the

00:42:30.860 --> 00:42:31.180
 light

00:42:31.180 --> 00:42:32.280
 take

00:42:32.280 --> 00:42:32.760
 courage

00:42:32.760 --> 00:42:33.960
 encourage

00:42:33.960 --> 00:42:34.680
 one

00:42:34.680 --> 00:42:35.019
 another

00:42:35.019 --> 00:42:35.400
 now

00:42:35.400 --> 00:42:35.780
 to be

00:42:35.780 --> 00:42:36.000
 able

00:42:36.000 --> 00:42:36.220
 to

00:42:36.220 --> 00:42:36.660
 encourage

00:42:36.660 --> 00:42:36.900
 one

00:42:36.900 --> 00:42:37.180
 another

00:42:37.180 --> 00:42:37.800
 necessarily

00:42:37.800 --> 00:42:38.559
 means

00:42:38.559 --> 00:42:39.920
 that

00:42:39.920 --> 00:42:40.079
 we

00:42:40.079 --> 00:42:40.360
 must

00:42:40.360 --> 00:42:41.139
 possess

00:42:41.139 --> 00:42:41.860
 a

00:42:41.860 --> 00:42:42.340
 clear

00:42:42.340 --> 00:42:43.059
 understanding

00:42:43.059 --> 00:42:43.380
 of the

00:42:43.380 --> 00:42:43.779
 gospel

00:42:43.779 --> 00:42:44.480
 and

00:42:44.480 --> 00:42:44.679
 we

00:42:44.679 --> 00:42:45.000
 must

00:42:45.000 --> 00:42:45.759
 learn

00:42:45.759 --> 00:42:46.400
 how

00:42:46.400 --> 00:42:46.619
 to

00:42:46.619 --> 00:42:47.159
 communicate

00:42:47.159 --> 00:42:47.500
 it

00:42:47.500 --> 00:42:48.000
 well

00:42:48.000 --> 00:42:49.759
 so

00:42:49.759 --> 00:42:49.940
 that

00:42:49.940 --> 00:42:50.139
 we

00:42:50.139 --> 00:42:50.440
 can

00:42:50.440 --> 00:42:51.000
 indeed

00:42:51.000 --> 00:42:52.119
 encourage

00:42:52.119 --> 00:42:52.340
 one

00:42:52.340 --> 00:42:52.699
 another

00:42:52.699 --> 00:42:53.480
 many

00:42:53.480 --> 00:42:53.699

00:42:53.699 --> 00:42:54.159
 Christians

00:42:54.159 --> 00:42:54.619
 because

00:42:54.619 --> 00:42:54.900
 of

00:42:54.900 --> 00:42:55.299
 a

00:42:55.299 --> 00:42:57.159

 of the

00:42:58.900 --> 00:42:59.279
 gospel

00:42:59.279 --> 00:43:00.119

 shackled

00:43:01.059 --> 00:43:02.340
 burdened

 believers

00:43:02.820 --> 00:43:03.779
 all over

00:43:03.779 --> 00:43:04.360
 again

00:43:04.360 --> 00:43:05.220
 with

 law

00:43:05.820 --> 00:43:07.260
 or

00:43:07.260 --> 00:43:07.480
 with

00:43:07.480 --> 00:43:08.280
 foolishness

00:43:08.280 --> 00:43:10.079
 no

00:43:10.079 --> 00:43:10.800

 the

00:43:11.000 --> 00:43:11.380

00:43:11.380 --> 00:43:12.220
 and

00:43:12.220 --> 00:43:12.420
 learn

00:43:13.840 --> 00:43:14.280
 well

00:43:14.280 --> 00:43:14.960
 so

00:43:14.960 --> 00:43:15.140
 that

00:43:15.140 --> 00:43:15.320
 you

00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:15.620
 can

 others

00:43:17.599 --> 00:43:19.019
 second

00:43:19.019 --> 00:43:20.460
 we

00:43:20.460 --> 00:43:20.880
 must

 what

00:43:26.079 --> 00:43:27.140
 I

00:43:27.140 --> 00:43:27.340
 think

00:43:27.340 --> 00:43:27.460
 in

00:43:33.619 --> 00:43:34.759
 sobriety

00:44:27.800 --> 00:44:28.180
 might

00:44:28.180 --> 00:44:29.980
 assume

 that

 experience

00:44:33.099 --> 00:44:33.640
 for me

00:44:33.640 --> 00:44:36.099
 the

00:44:36.099 --> 00:44:36.539
 experience

00:44:36.539 --> 00:44:36.760
 was

00:44:36.760 --> 00:44:37.240
 often

00:44:37.240 --> 00:44:38.559
 embarrassment

00:44:38.559 --> 00:44:39.320
 and shame

00:44:39.320 --> 00:44:39.720
 on my

00:44:39.720 --> 00:44:40.039
 part

00:44:40.039 --> 00:44:41.860
 because

00:44:41.860 --> 00:44:42.099
 I

00:44:42.099 --> 00:44:42.559
 understood

00:44:42.559 --> 00:44:43.200
 the

00:44:43.200 --> 00:44:44.019
 disappointment

00:44:44.019 --> 00:44:46.400
 on

00:44:46.400 --> 00:44:47.119
 the

00:44:47.119 --> 00:44:47.280
 part

00:44:47.280 --> 00:44:47.360
 of

00:44:47.360 --> 00:44:47.500
 my

00:44:47.500 --> 00:44:47.940
 parents

00:44:47.940 --> 00:44:50.659
 they

00:44:50.659 --> 00:44:50.860
 often

00:44:50.860 --> 00:44:51.179
 corrected

00:44:51.179 --> 00:44:51.360
 me

00:44:51.360 --> 00:44:51.539
 of

00:44:51.539 --> 00:44:51.759
 course

00:44:51.759 --> 00:44:51.940
 any

00:44:51.940 --> 00:44:52.119
 good

00:44:52.119 --> 00:44:52.340
 parent

00:44:52.340 --> 00:44:52.579
 would

00:44:52.579 --> 00:44:53.460
 but

00:44:53.460 --> 00:44:54.000
 you

00:44:54.000 --> 00:44:54.099
 know

00:44:54.099 --> 00:44:54.259
 what

00:44:54.259 --> 00:44:54.539
 never

00:44:54.539 --> 00:44:55.019
 happened

00:44:55.019 --> 00:44:56.360
 not

00:44:56.360 --> 00:44:56.500
 even

00:44:56.500 --> 00:44:56.739
 one

00:44:56.739 --> 00:44:57.059
 time

00:44:57.059 --> 00:44:59.400
 they

00:44:59.400 --> 00:44:59.559
 never

00:44:59.559 --> 00:44:59.840
 beat

00:44:59.840 --> 00:45:00.159
 me

00:45:00.159 --> 00:45:01.659
 never

00:45:01.659 --> 00:45:02.119
 berated

00:45:02.119 --> 00:45:02.539
 me

00:45:02.539 --> 00:45:05.699
 they

00:45:05.699 --> 00:45:05.900
 never

00:45:05.900 --> 00:45:06.340
 disowned

00:45:06.340 --> 00:45:06.639
 me

00:45:06.639 --> 00:45:08.360
 they

00:45:08.360 --> 00:45:08.599
 never

00:45:08.599 --> 00:45:09.079
 withheld

00:45:09.079 --> 00:45:09.860
 the

00:45:09.860 --> 00:45:10.280
 privileges

00:45:10.280 --> 00:45:10.719
 of being

00:45:10.719 --> 00:45:10.960
 their

00:45:10.960 --> 00:45:11.300
 son

00:45:11.300 --> 00:45:15.080
 that

00:45:15.080 --> 00:45:15.460
 wasn't

00:45:15.460 --> 00:45:15.840
 because

00:45:15.840 --> 00:45:16.080
 I

00:45:16.080 --> 00:45:16.260
 was

00:45:16.260 --> 00:45:16.820
 unworthy

00:45:16.820 --> 00:45:17.100
 of

00:45:17.100 --> 00:45:17.460
 their

00:45:17.460 --> 00:45:18.400
 judgment

00:45:18.400 --> 00:45:20.880
 but

00:45:20.880 --> 00:45:21.200
 because

00:45:21.200 --> 00:45:21.360
 I

00:45:21.360 --> 00:45:21.740
 belonged

00:45:21.740 --> 00:45:21.940
 to

00:45:21.940 --> 00:45:22.140
 them

00:45:22.140 --> 00:45:24.060
 and

00:45:24.060 --> 00:45:24.300
 nothing

00:45:24.300 --> 00:45:24.500
 was

00:45:24.500 --> 00:45:24.620
 going

00:45:24.620 --> 00:45:24.720
 to

00:45:24.720 --> 00:45:25.080
 change

00:45:25.080 --> 00:45:25.400
 that

00:45:25.400 --> 00:45:28.000
 now

00:45:28.000 --> 00:45:28.180
 if

00:45:28.180 --> 00:45:28.440
 Jesus

00:45:28.440 --> 00:45:28.720
 comes

00:45:28.720 --> 00:45:28.960
 back

00:45:28.960 --> 00:45:29.240
 today

00:45:29.240 --> 00:45:29.660
 and

00:45:29.660 --> 00:45:29.980
 we

00:45:29.980 --> 00:45:31.600
 would

00:45:31.600 --> 00:45:31.780
 do

00:45:31.780 --> 00:45:31.980
 well

00:45:31.980 --> 00:45:32.180
 to

00:45:32.180 --> 00:45:32.380
 pray

00:45:32.380 --> 00:45:32.600
 that

00:45:32.600 --> 00:45:32.800
 he

00:45:32.800 --> 00:45:33.160
 will

00:45:33.160 --> 00:45:34.860
 because

00:45:34.860 --> 00:45:35.240
 that

00:45:35.240 --> 00:45:35.400
 will

00:45:35.400 --> 00:45:35.600
 be

00:45:35.600 --> 00:45:35.760
 a

00:45:35.760 --> 00:45:36.100
 glorious

00:45:36.100 --> 00:45:36.500
 day

00:45:36.500 --> 00:45:37.740
 if

00:45:37.740 --> 00:45:37.800
 he

00:45:37.800 --> 00:45:37.980
 comes

00:45:37.980 --> 00:45:38.220
 back

00:45:38.220 --> 00:45:38.560
 today

00:45:38.559 --> 00:45:40.599
 there

00:45:40.599 --> 00:45:40.840
 might

00:45:40.840 --> 00:45:41.039
 be

00:45:41.039 --> 00:45:41.320
 some

00:45:41.320 --> 00:45:41.860
 embarrassment

00:45:41.860 --> 00:45:42.199
 for

00:45:42.199 --> 00:45:42.420
 some

00:45:42.420 --> 00:45:42.559
 of

00:45:42.559 --> 00:45:42.880
 us

00:45:42.880 --> 00:45:44.440
 as

00:45:44.440 --> 00:45:44.619
 we

00:45:44.619 --> 00:45:45.119
 acknowledge

00:45:45.119 --> 00:45:45.400
 some

00:45:45.400 --> 00:45:46.079
 disappointment

00:45:46.079 --> 00:45:47.440
 in our

00:45:47.440 --> 00:45:47.840
 Lord and

00:45:47.840 --> 00:45:48.159
 Savior

00:45:48.159 --> 00:45:51.599
 all our

00:45:51.599 --> 00:45:51.920
 works

00:45:51.920 --> 00:45:52.460
 Paul said

00:45:52.460 --> 00:45:52.719
 to the

00:45:52.719 --> 00:45:53.099
 Corinthians

00:45:53.099 --> 00:45:53.619
 will be

00:45:53.619 --> 00:45:54.059
 tested

00:45:54.059 --> 00:45:54.799
 by fire

00:45:54.799 --> 00:45:56.420
 to see

00:45:56.420 --> 00:45:56.579
 if

00:45:56.579 --> 00:45:56.779
 they're

00:45:56.779 --> 00:45:57.320
 burn

00:45:57.320 --> 00:45:57.559
 up

00:45:57.559 --> 00:45:57.920
 like

00:45:57.920 --> 00:45:58.239
 wood

00:45:58.239 --> 00:45:58.460
 hay

00:45:58.460 --> 00:45:58.679
 and

00:45:58.679 --> 00:45:59.079
 stubble

00:45:59.079 --> 00:45:59.099
!

00:46:00.019 --> 00:46:00.079
 Or

00:46:00.079 --> 00:46:00.360
 whether

00:46:00.360 --> 00:46:00.820
 they

00:46:00.820 --> 00:46:01.279
 will

00:46:01.279 --> 00:46:02.159
 shine

00:46:02.159 --> 00:46:02.420
 as

00:46:02.420 --> 00:46:02.799
 gold

00:46:02.799 --> 00:46:03.019
 and

 silver

00:46:03.340 --> 00:46:03.559
 and

00:46:03.559 --> 00:46:03.820
 precious

00:46:03.820 --> 00:46:04.279
 stones!

00:46:05.860 --> 00:46:06.380
 That

00:46:06.380 --> 00:46:06.500
 will

00:46:06.500 --> 00:46:06.619
 be

00:46:06.619 --> 00:46:06.779
 the

00:46:06.779 --> 00:46:06.980
 case

00:46:11.700 --> 00:46:12.039
 saved

00:46:13.180 --> 00:46:13.460
 up

00:46:13.460 --> 00:46:14.360
 we

 not

00:46:17.680 --> 00:46:18.059
 happen

00:46:18.059 --> 00:46:21.119
 if

 you're
