For even then when we were without strength, Christ died in due time for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous person will any one die: though for a good man perhaps some one might even dare to die. But God commendeth his own love towards us, that, though we were yet sinners, Christ died in our stead. read more.
Therefore much more, being justified already by his blood, shall we be saved by him from wrath.

1 Thessalonians 1:6-10

And ye became imitators of us, and of the Lord, receiving the word in much affliction, with joy of the Holy Ghost; so that ye became models for all that believe in Macedonia and Achaia. For from you sounded forth the word of the Lord, not only into Macedonia and Achaia, but into every region also your fidelity towards God is gone out, so that we have no need to say any thing. read more.
For they publish concerning you what manner of entrance we had unto you, and how ye turned unto God from idols, to serve the living and true God, and to wait for his Son from the heavens, whom he raised from the dead, even Jesus, who delivereth us from the wrath to come.

1 Thessalonians 5:5-11

Ye are all the children of light, and the children of day: we are not the children of night, nor of darkness. Let us not then sleep as do others; but let us watch and be sober. For they who sleep, sleep in the night, and they who are drunken, are drunken in the night; read more.
but let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and for a helmet the hope of salvation. For God hath not appointed us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that whether we sleep, or whether we wake, we may live together with him. Wherefore comfort one another, and edify one another, as also ye do.
