9because God did not appoint us to anger, but to the acquiring of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,


In Context

6 so, then, we may not sleep as also the others, but watch and be sober,

7 for those sleeping, by night do sleep, and those making themselves drunk, by night are drunken,

8 and we, being of the day — let us be sober, putting on a breastplate of faith and love, and an helmet — a hope of salvation,

9 because God did not appoint us to anger, but to the acquiring of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,

10 who did die for us, that whether we wake — whether we sleep — together with him we may live;

11 wherefore, comfort ye one another, and build ye up, one the one, as also ye do.
