1 Thessalonians 5:6

The Sudden Arrival Of The Day Of The Lord

⁵ For you are all sons of light and of the day: we are not of the night or of the dark. ⁶ So then, let us not take our rest as the others do, but let us be self-controlled and awake. ⁷ For those who are sleeping do so in the night; and those who are the worse for drink are so in the night;
