=== Suddenly These Things Will Happen (02:24) ===

[00:00:00]  I'm going to give you some scripture that I believe God has given me for today.
[00:00:04]  1 Thessalonians 5.3.
[00:00:06]  Now listen to me.
[00:00:08]  This is what God is speaking to me over and over and over again.
[00:00:11]  For when they say peace and safety, and you know what that word, peace and safety, you know what that means in the Greek also?
[00:00:18]  It's prosperity.
[00:00:20]  Can you believe that?
[00:00:22]  So when they cry peace and safety and prosperity, then sudden destruction cometh upon them as travail upon a woman with child and they shall not escape.
[00:00:36]  Suddenly, these things are going to happen.
[00:00:39]  And we're in the time where perilous things are going to happen.
[00:00:43]  And the suddenly is going to happen.
[00:00:45]  And God's people need to be ready to preach the gospel.
[00:00:49]  He's been talking about, and Pat Robertson, I think I heard him say the other day, to have Bibles stored.
[00:00:56]  Yes.
[00:00:57]  So you can give them out.
[00:00:59]  And we have buckets of Bibles.
[00:01:00]  We have food buckets and we have Bible buckets.
[00:01:03]  And it's important to be prepared.
[00:01:05]  So remember, when they shall say peace and safety, and that's what you're hearing a lot over here in 1 Thessalonians, then suddenly destruction cometh upon them as travail upon a woman with child and they shall not escape.
[00:01:20]  But you brethren, now listen to me.
[00:01:22]  You brethren are not in darkness that that day should overtake you as a thief.
[00:01:28]  That's why you've got to get into the word.
[00:01:31]  I have pastors tell me, no, we don't want to talk about it.
[00:01:34]  We don't want to talk about the last days.
[00:01:36]  We don't want to talk about politics.
[00:01:38]  We don't want to talk about what's happening.
[00:01:40]  But I'm telling you, if you don't know what the Bible says, God let me go to his university for five years.
[00:01:48]  And I studied the word and come to find out what was coming on the earth.
[00:01:53]  And he said, Jim, I want you to be a watchman.
[00:01:56]  I want you to watch.
[00:01:58]  And let me finish this little part.
[00:02:01]  But you, brethren, are not in darkness that that day should overtake you as a thief.
[00:02:06]  See, everybody says he's coming as a thief in the night.

=== Let Us Watch And Be Sober (00:36) ===

[00:02:10]  He is coming as a thief in the night, but not for the church.
[00:02:14]  Not for the Christian.
[00:02:15]  Right.
[00:02:16]  That's it.
[00:02:16]  He said, I'm going to let you know.
[00:02:18]  I'm going to tell you.
[00:02:20]  And here's the things.
[00:02:22]  We're going to find out where we are right now.
[00:02:25]  And ye are all the children of light and the children of the day.
[00:02:31]  We are not of the night or of the darkness.
[00:02:37]  Therefore, let us not sleep as others do, but let us watch and be sober.
[00:02:45]  Wow.
