Show Notes

“The day of the Lord” is a phrase found frequently in Old Testament judgment passages. It describes a decisive, “end-time” intervention by God, with a strong emphasis on the negative consequences of disobedience. In 1 Thessalonians 5:2, Paul says that this “day of the Lord” will come suddenly and unexpectedly. He compares this to a thief in the night and a woman who suddenly goes into labor. Paul calls on both the believers in Thessalonica and Christians today to be prepared for the Second Coming of Jesus.

 

Other scriptures referenced include Isaiah 13:6-9; Jeremiah 46:10; Ezekiel 30:2-12; Matthew 24:43; Luke 12:39; 1 Thessalonians 5:4-8; Acts 1:6-7; Luke 11:34-36; Psalm 119:105; and 1 Thessalonians 4:1-12.
