CHAP. V.
1 Condemning the curious searching for the seasons of Christes
comming, 6 hee warneth them to be readie dayly to receiue
him: 11 And so giueth them sundry good le&esset;ons.
1 Bvt note of the times and note seasons, brethren, yee
haue no neede that I write vnto you.
2 For ye your selues knowe perfectly, that
the day of the Lorde shall come, euen as a thiefe
in the night.
3 For when they shall say, Peace, and safetie,
then shall come vpon them sudden destruction, as
the trauaile vpon a woman with childe, and they
shall not escape,
4 noteBut ye, brethren, are not in darkenes, that
that day shal come on you, as it were a thiefe.
5 Yee are all the children of light, and the
children of the day: we are not of the night, neither
of darkenesse.
6 Therefore let vs not sleepe as do other, but
let vs watch and be sober.
7 For they that sleepe, sleepe in the night, and
they that be drunken, are drunken in the night.
8 noteBut let vs which are of the day, be sober,
note putting on the brest plate of faith and loue, and
of the hope of saluation for an helmet.
9 noteFor God hath not appointed vs vnto
wrath, but to obtaine saluation by the meanes of
our Lord Iesus Christ,
10 noteWhich died for vs, that whether we wake
To loue the ministers of God.
or sleepe, we should liue together with him.
11 noteWherefore exhort one another, and edifie
one another, euen as ye doe.
12 noteNowe we beseeche you, brethren, that ye
note acknowledge them, which labour among you,
and are ouer you in the note Lorde, & admonish you,
13 That yee haue them in singular loue for
note their workes sake. noteBee at peace among your
selues.
14 noteWe desire you, brethren, admonish them
that are note out of order: comfort þe; feeble minded:
beare with the weake: be pacient toward all men.
15 note noteSee that none recompense euil for euil
vnto any man: but euer folow that which is good,
both toward your selues, and toward all men.
16 noteReioyce euermore.
17 notePray continually.
18 In all thinges giue thankes: for this is the
note will of God in Christ Iesus toward you.
19 noteQuench not the Spirit.
20 Despise not note prophecying.
21 Try all things, & keepe that which is good.
22 noteAbsteine from all note appearance of euill.
23 Nowe the very God of peace note sanctifie you
throughout: and I pray God that your whole spirite
and soule and body, may be kept blamelesse
vnto the comming of our Lord Iesus Christ.
24 note note noteFaithfull is hee which calleth you,
which will also note doe it.
25 noteBrethren, pray for vs.
26 Greete all the brethren with an holy kisse.
27 I charge you in the Lorde, that this Epistle
be read vnto all the brethren the Saintes.
28 The grace of our Lord Iesus Christ be with
you, Amen.

written from Athens.
