You must do this. "Love your fellow-man as yourself." You know what hour it is. They lived at a crucial point in history! See notes on Matthew 24:29-31; Romans 11:25-26. For you to wake up. Christians must have a sense of urgency, like the farmer who races to finish his work before sundown!!! When we will be saved. Even though Paul knew (by inspiration) that the Lord would not come in his lifetime (2 Thessalonians 2:3), yet he always had a strong sense of the nearness of that Day when Christ would Come! Saved here is used in the sense of our being set completely free - body, soul, spirit - in Eternity. Compare 1 John 3:1-3; 1 Corinthians 15:51-52; 1 Thessalonians 4:15-18; Romans 8:23.
