Be sober and alert. Your enemy the devil, like a roaring lion, is on the prowl looking for someone to devour.

“ Get dressed for service and keep your lamps burning;

For the culmination of all things is near. So be self- controlled and sober- minded for the sake of prayer.

so also, after Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many, to those who eagerly await him he will appear a second time, not to bear sin but to bring salvation.

But set Christ apart as Lord in your hearts and always be ready to give an answer to anyone who asks about the hope you possess.

For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to all people.It trains us to reject godless ways and worldly desires and to live self- controlled, upright, and godly lives in the present age,as we wait for the happy fulfillment of our hope in the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ.

So then we must not sleep as the rest, but must stay alert and sober.For those who sleep, sleep at night and those who get drunk are drunk at night.But since we are of the day, we must stay sober by putting on the breastplate of faith and love and as a helmet our hope for salvation.

Stand firm therefore, by fastening the belt of truth around your waist, by putting on the breastplate of righteousness,

Finally the crown of righteousness is reserved for me. The Lord, the righteous Judge, will award it to me in that day– and not to me only, but also to all who have set their affection on his appearing.

“ But be on your guard so that your hearts are not weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of this life, and that day close down upon you suddenly like a trap.For it will overtake all who live on the face of the whole earth.

so that you do not lack any spiritual gift as you wait for the revelation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

It will be the same on the day the Son of Man is revealed.

You, however, be self- controlled in all things, endure hardship, do an evangelist’s work, fulfill your ministry.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! By his great mercy he gave us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,that is, into an inheritance imperishable, undefiled, and unfading. It is reserved in heaven for you,who by God’s power are protected through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.This brings you great joy, although you may have to suffer for a short time in various trials.Such trials show the proven character of your faith, which is much more valuable than gold– gold that is tested by fire, even though it is passing away– and will bring praise and glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.You have not seen him, but you love him. You do not see him now but you believe in him, and so you rejoice with an indescribable and glorious joy,because you are attaining the goal of your faith– the salvation of your souls.

But Christ is faithful as a son over God’s house. We are of his house, if in fact we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope we take pride in.

So do not throw away your confidence, because it has great reward.

And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love.

We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, sure and steadfast, which reaches inside behind the curtain,

Let us live decently as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and sensuality, not in discord and jealousy.

For everything that was written in former times was written for our instruction, so that through endurance and through encouragement of the scriptures we may have hope.Now may the God of endurance and comfort give you unity with one another in accordance with Christ Jesus,so that together you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.Receive one another, then, just as Christ also received you, to God’s glory.For I tell you that Christ has become a servant of the circumcised on behalf of God’s truth to confirm the promises made to the fathers,and thus the Gentiles glorify God for his mercy. As it is written,“ Because of this I will confess you among the Gentiles, and I will sing praises to your name.”And again it says:“ Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people.”And again,“ Praise the Lord all you Gentiles, and let all the peoples praise him.”And again Isaiah says,“ The root of Jesse will come, and the one who rises to rule over the Gentiles, in him will the Gentiles hope.”Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you believe in him, so that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.

and to you who are being afflicted to give rest together with us when the Lord Jesus is revealed from heaven with his mighty angels.
