“Therefore comfort each other and edify one another, just as you also are doing.” (1 Thessalonians 5:11, NKJV)

Like soldiers, who are always prepared for any eventuality, believers must always be prepared for Christ’s return. They must practice self-control in their behavior, strong in faith and love, and secured in their salvation.

Our union with Christ means that we will escape God’s anger and enjoy salvation in its fulness. This is another reason why they should live in a way that pleases God and encourages fellow believers. Let us continue to comfort and build up each other in all trials and difficulties and not allow anything to intervene or disrupt our harmony. (1 Thess. 5:8-11)
