For we being yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly: for scarcely will one die for a righteous man; for perhaps some one even dares to die for a good man. And God commends his love to us, because, we being yet sinners, Christ died for us. read more.
How much more then, having now been justified by his blood, shall we be saved from wrath through him.

1 Thessalonians 1:6-10

And you became imitators of us, and the Lord, having received the word in much tribulation, with the joy of the Holy Ghost; so that you are an example to all the believers in Macedonia and in Achaia. For from you the word of the Lord echoed out, not only in Macedonia and in Achaia, but in every place your faith which is towards God has gone forth; so that we have no need to say any thing: read more.
for they proclaim concerning what kind of reception we had unto you; and how you turned to God from the idols, to serve the true and the living God, and to await his Son out of the heavens, whom he raised from the dead, Jesus the one delivering us from the wrath to come.

1 Thessalonians 5:5-11

for you are all the sons of light, and the sons of day: we are not of night, nor of darkness; then therefore let us not sleep like the rest, but watch and be sober. For those sleeping, sleep in the night; and those who are drunken, get drunk in the night: read more.
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.
