- Sermon Overview
Scripture Passage: 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11
If we believe in our hearts that Jesus is coming again, we must be ready for His return; 1 Thessalonians 5:2 says He will come “like a thief in the night.” This chapter, 1 Thessalonians 5, offers four truths about Jesus’ glorious return.
First, it will be a surprising day.
We are certain that He is coming, but we do not know when. As we wait for Him, we should be sharing our faith with others, so that they are also ready for the Second Coming.
Adrian Rogers says, “Jesus Christ is coming; He came on time, He was born on time, He died on time, and He rose on time. He’s coming again in His own time; He will never be late.”
Second, we can escape sudden destruction.
“But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief” (1 Thessalonians 5:4). The day of Christ’s return will be a solemn, sudden, and sure day-the calm before the storm of judgment to come. On that day, He will rapture His Church from the world, and believers will escape the Great Tribulation prophesied in Revelation.
Third, we must endure this surrounding darkness.
We live in a world plagued by moral, spiritual, and political darkness. As children of God, we must be aware and wise up, be awake and get up, and be alert and dress up-putting on the armor of God. According to 1 Thessalonians 5:8, we need to get our hearts right and keep our heads right: “But let us who are of the day be sober.”
Finally, we will experience a sure deliverance:
“For God did not appoint us to wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him. Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing” (1 Thessalonians 5:9-11).
This passage explains that we can expect to be delivered from His wrath. This assurance is meant to edify us in these Last Days. As God rescued Noah and his family before flooding the Earth in Genesis 6, so will He rapture His Church before the Great Tribulation.
Apply it to your life
As we wait with expectation for Jesus’ return, we should be in the habit of sharing the Gospel. Adrian Rogers says, “Get your head out of the clouds of prophecy and get your feet on the pavement of soul-winning.”

I didn’t think He would come in my lifetime but dude …. Gettin crazy out there
i hope He does. the pain is getting heavy. i draw near him harder. i am fine in my bubble but the pressure from outside is rising. God Bless
We know He's coming back!!!
I can't get enough of his sermon its so well constructed.I'm even starting to memorize bible scriptures
I remember many years ago hearing Pastor Rogers' sermon on evolution and the Bible and thinking... "Wow. I've not heard such strong things from the pulpit in a while." I've been a "fan" ever since. Seeing now his Dispensational-Premillennial outlook on display (complete with Pre-Tribulation Rapture of the church) is even more comforting in this day and age where so many have turned away from, well, frankly, the truth of it from scripture.
Glory to God.
GOD IS THE GOD OF THE LIVING; PASTOR ROGER’S PREACHING IS AS ALIVE TODAY AS WHEN HE PREACHED IT!!!
Even so Lord Jesus Come
Praise the Lord!!! What a wonderful message still ringing to this day!! 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🫶🏾🫶🏾

Ever been a Thief In The Night?
The day of Wrath spoken of, is God's Eternal damnation for the unsaved, the wicked. It has nothing to do with the ''Great Tribulation''. Jesus said in this World, ye will have tribulation, but take heart I have overcome the world. The Church has been persecuted since the Book of Acts, this is nothing new. God nevers told us we will be take out and escape. I wish it were true. However, rather than loving Jesus, and preparing for combat, and to strengthen ourselves and one another, we pretend Jesus will appear randomly, and we will escape what is to come. Look at this Verse....
Revelation 6:9-11 9 And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:
10 And they cried with a loud voice, saying, How long, O Lord, holy and true, dost thou not judge and avenge our blood on them that dwell on the earth?
11 And white robes were given unto every one of them; and it was said unto them, that they should rest yet for a little season, until their fellowservants also and their brethren, that should be killed as they were, should be fulfilled.
You are a 100% correct. Christians are looking for an easy way out. The ones who believe they aren’t going to go thru the great tribulation will not be ready for battle and they will give in to the antichrist.
