1. The warning: “the hour has come for you to awake from your sleep.” *Against spiritual slumbering and lethargy. *For looking for signs of the enemy's presence. *Challenge- Christianity does't conceive or perceive a sense of danger! *Beware of the celebrity parade
2. The Motivation: has been cause of confusion for some. “11b) *We are in the process of being saved = salvation is nearer now than when we believed *We are saved, we were saved, we will be saved >Propositionally: *You believe-you are saved, Jesus paid it all! *You come to Jesus, you enter the process of being saved. 2 Corinthians 3:16 *You believe you embrace this hope. 1 John 3:1-2 >Eschatological: *Life as we know it is coming to an end, so we better get ready. 2 Peter 3:10-13 *Warning to wake up
3. The instruction: cast off the works of darkness, put on the Lord Jesus Christ. *We cannot fight darkness and the flesh, in the flesh. *Orgies & Drunkenness: Paul says "Stop It!" *Sexual immorality and Sensuality: ENOUGH with darkness! Put on Jesus! *Quarreling and Jealousy: Jesus said: Learn from Me, for I am of a meek and humble Spirit.
