Fully Aware of the Day of the Lord

December 8, 2024 • Alex Gailey • Malachi 3:1–2, 1 Thessalonians 5:1–11

This week, we explore Malachi 3:1-2 and 1 Thessalonians 5 and its powerful imagery describing the Day of the Lord and how Christians are called to live in anticipation of Christ’s return. Paul uses metaphors like the “thief in the night,” “children of light,” and “sobermindedness” to highlight the urgency, hope, and preparedness required of believers. The message challenges us to align our lives with the reality of Christ’s imminent return, rejecting worldly distractions and embracing a life marked by faith, love, and hope.
