1:10 Whom he hath raised from the dead - In proof of his future coming to judgment. Who delivereth us - He redeemed us once; he delivers us continually; and will deliver all that believe from the wrath, the eternal vengeance, which will then come upon the ungodly.

1Th 1:10 And to wait for his Son from heaven. The apostles saw the Lord ascend, but he left a promise that he would return, with the time wholly unrevealed. Hence, in preaching the gospel, they made his return to the world very prominent, and perhaps believed themselves in his speedy coming. Until after Jerusalem was destroyed the churches "waited", as though the Lord would soon be revealed. We should still wait, "watch and pray" (Mt 26:24 Mr 13:33 14:38 Lu 21:36). We know not the hour when he may either come (Mt 24:42 Re 3:3), or we be called to him.

"You just wait and see" is something you hear people say at times. Usually they are encouraging someone, that though things seem one way now, in the future, they will be different.
"You just wait and see."
Faith, hope, and confidence, with patience, of the certainty of what will be.
If we continue in faith and patience, in Christ, we will see - "you just wait and see."

Because, Jesus came and died for our sins and if we accept Him as our Savior and Lord, we will be delivered from the wrath that is soon to come. Sounds clear to me.
