Go to the ant, you sluggard; consider its ways and be wise!
It has no commander, no overseer or ruler,
yet it stores its provisions in summer and gathers its food at harvest.

螞蟻沒有元帥,沒有官長,沒有君王,
尚且在夏天預備食物,在收割時聚斂糧食。

And do this, understanding the present time: The hour has already come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.
The night is nearly over; the day is almost here. So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.
Let us behave decently, as in the daytime, not in carousing and drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and debauchery, not in dissension and jealousy.
Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to gratify the desires of the flesh.
再者,你們曉得現今就是該趁早睡醒的時候;因為我們得救,現今比初信的時候更近了。
黑夜已深,白晝將近;我們就當脫去暗昧的行為,帶上光明的兵器。
行事為人要端正,好像行在白晝。不可荒宴醉酒,不可好色邪蕩,不可爭競嫉妒;
總要披戴主耶穌基督,不要為肉體安排,去放縱私慾。

帖撒羅尼迦前書 4:13
- 18
Brothers and sisters, we do not want you to be uninformed about those who sleep in death, so that you do not grieve like the rest of mankind, who have no hope.
For we believe that Jesus died and rose again, and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him.
According to the Lord's word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left until the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep.
For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.
After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.
Therefore encourage one another with these words.
論到睡了的人,我們不願意弟兄們不知道,恐怕你們憂傷,像那些沒有指望的人一樣。
我們若信耶穌死而復活了,那已經在耶穌裡睡了的人,神也必將他與耶穌一同帶來。
我們現在照主的話告訴你們一件事:我們這活著還存留到主降臨的人,斷不能在那已經睡了的人之先。
因為主必親自從天降臨,有呼叫的聲音和天使長的聲音,又有神的號吹響;那在基督裡死了的人必先復活。
以後我們這活著還存留的人必和他們一同被提到雲裡,在空中與主相遇。這樣,我們就要和主永遠同在。
所以,你們當用這些話彼此勸慰。
詩篇 23:4
Even though I walk through the darkest valley, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.
我雖然行過死蔭的幽谷,也不怕遭害,因為你與我同在;你的杖,你的竿,都安慰我。
詩篇 1:1
- 6
Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers,
but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night.
That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither- whatever they do prospers.
Not so the wicked! They are like chaff that the wind blows away.
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.
For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.
不從惡人的計謀,不站罪人的道路,不坐褻慢人的座位,
惟喜愛耶和華的律法,晝夜思想,這人便為有福!
他要像一棵樹栽在溪水旁,按時候結果子,葉子也不枯乾。凡他所做的盡都順利。
惡人並不是這樣,乃像糠秕被風吹散。
因此,當審判的時候惡人必站立不住;罪人在義人的會中也是如此。
因為耶和華知道義人的道路;惡人的道路卻必滅亡。
阿摩司書 4:12
"Therefore this is what I will do to you, Israel, and because I will do this to you, Israel, prepare to meet your God."
以色列啊,我必向你如此行;以色列啊,我既這樣行,你當預備迎見你的神。

I tell you, no! But unless you repent, you too will all perish.
我告訴你們,不是的!你們若不悔改,都要如此滅亡!
約翰福音 14:6
Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.

約翰福音 16:33
"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."
我將這些事告訴你們,是要叫你們在我裡面有平安。在世上,你們有苦難;但你們可以放心,我已經勝了世界。」
使徒行傳 22:16
And now what are you waiting for? Get up, be baptized and wash your sins away, calling on his name.'
現在你為什麼耽延呢?起來,求告他的名受洗,洗去你的罪。』」

雅各書 2:24
You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone.

啟示錄 1:7
"Look, he is coming with the clouds," and "every eye will see him, even those who pierced him"; and all peoples on earth "will mourn because of him." So shall it be! Amen.
看哪,他駕雲降臨!眾目要看見他,連刺他的人也要看見他;地上的萬族都要因他哀哭。這話是真實的。阿們!
啟示錄 2:11
Whoever has ears, let them hear what the Spirit says to the churches. The one who is victorious will not be hurt at all by the second death.
聖靈向眾教會所說的話,凡有耳的,就應當聽!得勝的,必不受第二次死的害。』」
