Be you also ready, for at an hour when you are not expecting Him the Son of Man will come.«
Be on the alert therefore, for you do not know the day on which your Lord is coming.
Therefore you also must be ready; for it is at a time when you do not expect Him that the Son of Man will come.
»Keep awake therefore; for you know neither the day nor the hour.«
Carry out these injunctions because you know the critical period at which we are living, and that it is now high time, to rouse yourselves from sleep; for salvation is now nearer to us than when we first became believers.
On the contrary, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for gratifying your earthly cravings.
So then let us not sleep, like the rest of the world, but let us keep awake and be sober.
Let us rejoice and triumph and give Him the glory; for the time for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His Bride has made herself ready.«
