Further Study: Final Events — 2 Comments

  1. "When people say, there is peace and security, then sudden destruction will come opon them..." (1 Thessalonians 5:3 RSV) The Apostle Paul is quoting the Prophet Jeremiah. While the babylonian armies were approaching, people felt secure in their cherished sins of wickedness, violence, greed, deceit and idolatry (Jeremiah 6:7,13). False prophets and priests were attempting in vain to heal the injuries of sin by proclaiming peace and security in those sins, rather than having sinners turn to God for spiritual healing from sin (Jeremia 6:14).

    The apostle Paul compares secure sinners with the picture of sleeping securely in darkness and even getting drunk at night (1 Thessalonians 5:4-7). To those feeling secure in their sinful living, the day of the Lord comes as a sudden destruction upon them (1 Thessalonians 5:3). There is no salvation in cherised sin but in turning to Christ, the lamb of God, who takes away our cherished sin (John 1:29). This is a vital part of preparation for the day of His coming.
