1 Thessalonians Chapter 5 – Marianne Manley

“But” (in contrast to our Rapture) . . . you do not need that I write of the “times and the seasons” of Israel’s “day of the Lord.”
Pay attention to the pronouns: “ye and you” as opposed to: “they and them.”
Paul said you know we are living in the dispensation of grace, and what God is doing, and will do next.
Why doesn’t Paul prepare us for going through the Tribulation?
Because God has not appointed us to Wrath.
James did not write to the body of Christ but to “the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad” (James 1:1) but we can learn from all the Bible if we rightly divide (Rom. 15:4; 2 Tim. 2:15).
