So comfort one another with these words.

And then the sign of the Son of man will appear in the heaven: and all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and will see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and much glory. And He will send forth His angels with a great trumpet, and they will gather His elect out of the four winds, from the extremities of the heavens, unto the extremities of the same.

But concerning the times and seasons, brethren, you have no need that I write to you; for you yourselves know well, that the day of the Lord is so coming like a thief in the night.

For those sleeping, sleep in the night; and those who are drunken, get drunk in the night: but let us, who are of the day, be sober, having put on the breastplate of faith and divine love; and the helmet, the hope of salvation: because God did not put us forth unto wrath, but unto the obtainment of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, the one having died for us, in order that, whether we are awake or asleep, we shall at the same time live with him. Therefore exhort one another, and edify either the other, as you indeed are doing.

Then Jesus said to them, Yet a little while the light is with you. Walk about as you have the light, in order that the darkness may not overtake you: and he that walketh about in darkness does not know where he is going. While you have the light, believe in the light, in order that you may be the sons of light. And Jesus spoke these things, and having gone out was hidden from them.

Do all things without murmurings and disputatious; in order that you may be blameless and pure, the children of God, irreproachable, amid a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as lights in the world,

And seeing the multitudes, He went up into the mountain; and having sat down, His disciples came to Him. And having opened His mouth He taught them, saying; Blessed are the poor in spirit: because the kingdom of the heavens is theirs. read more.
Blessed are the meek, because they shall inherit the earth. Blessed are they that mourn: because they shall be comforted. Blessed are they that hunger and thirst after righteousness: because they shall be filled. Blessed are the merciful: because they shall receive mercy. Blessed are the pure in heart: because they shall see God. Blessed are the peacemakers: because they shall be called the sons of God. Blessed are they, who are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for the kingdom of the heavens is theirs. Blessed are ye when they may despise you, and shall persecute you, and may say all evil against you, falsifying, for my sake. Rejoice, and he exceedingly glad: because your reward is great in the heavens: for in this manner they persecuted the prophets who were before you. Ye are the salt of the earth; and if the salt may lose its savor, in what shall it be salted? It is yet without value, except having been cast out, to be trodden under feet by the people. Ye are the light of the world. A city sitting on a mountain is unable to be hidden. Neither do they light a candle, and place it under a bushel, but on the candlestick; and it shineth to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before the people, in order that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in the heavens.

Therefore be ye imitators of God, as beloved children; and walk about in divine love, as Christ also loved you, and gave himself for you, an offering and a sacrifice to God for an odor of sweet savor. But all fornication, and uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be named among you, as it becomes saints; read more.
and indecorum, or foolish talking, or indecent jesting, which is not becoming, but rather the giving of thanks: for you are knowing this, that no fornicator, or unclean person, or covetous, who is an idolater, has an inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God. Let no one deceive you with empty words: for through these the wrath of God comes on the sons of disobedience. Therefore be not partakers along with them. For at one time ye were darkness, but now ye are light in the Lord: walk about as children of the light,

But as were the days of Noah, so indeed shall be the coming of the Son of man. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day on which Noah entered into the ark, and they did not know until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall be the coming of the Son of man.
