9because God has not set us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,


In Context

6 So then do not let us sleep as the rest do, but let us watch and be sober;

7 for they that sleep sleep by night, and they that drink drink by night;

8 but we being of the day, let us be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as helmet the hope of salvation;

9 because God has not set us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

10 who has died for us, that whether we may be watching or sleep, we may live together with him.

11 Wherefore encourage one another, and build up each one the other, even as also ye do.
