1Th 5:5 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day. They are of the light, of the day, because they have come to Christ for light, and are taught of him. Hence on this subject they are fully informed. We are not of the night, nor of darkness. Those are "of the night", who turn away from the light and refuse to accept it.

"Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the night, nor of darkness." (I Thessalonians 5:5)
I was flipping through the television channels and caught the tail end of a program. I heard Ed Hinson say something to the effect that God gives us enough information about the end time... but not enough to scare the day lights out of us.
I thought, that is exactly what Satan wants to do - scare the daylights out of us.
Jesus said many times to His disciples, "Be not afraid." Or, in other words, "Don't let Satan scare the daylights out of you."
We are to be of faith and love keeping the daylights shining out from us.
Paul say, "But let us, who are of the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the hope of salvation." (I Thessalonians 5:8)
Don't let Satan scare the daylights out of you.
