The exact day and hour are known only to the Father—nobody else, not even the angels in heaven or the Son, has this knowledge. The coming of the Son of Man will resemble the days of Noah. Just as people confidently speak of peace and security, sudden destruction will catch them off guard, like labor pains seizing a pregnant woman; they will not escape. You, dear brothers and sisters, are not in darkness; that day will not surprise you like a thief. You are children of the light and the day; we do not belong to the night or to darkness.

God has not appointed us to experience wrath but to secure salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we will live together with Him.

The crowd gathered in wonder, amazed to hear these Galileans speaking in their own languages.

Faced with this manifestation, astonishment and perplexity gripped the crowd, who sought to understand its meaning. Some, however, mocked the disciples, accusing them of being drunk. Peter, accompanied by the eleven apostles, then spoke to the multitude. He explained that they were not drunk, for it was only nine o'clock in the morning. He then quoted the prophet Joel: "In the last days, God will pou...

Attention aux Faux Évangiles et Esprits Trompeurs La Bible met en garde contre les enseignements qui s'écartent du véritable Évangile du Christ et encourage à discerner les vrais des faux esprits. Le Danger des Faux Évangiles Galates 1:7-9 avertit que quiconque prêche un évangile différent de celui reçu doit être condamné. Ce message est répété pour souligner la gravité de cette déviation : « Si quelqu'un vous annonce un autre Évangile que celui que vous avez reçu, qu'il soit maudit! » 2 Corinthiens 11:4 souligne la facilité avec laquelle certains peuvent accepter un « autre Jésus », un « autre esprit » ou un « autre Évangile ». Discerner les Vrais et Faux Esprits Il est crucial d'éprouver chaque esprit pour en déterminer l'origine. 1 Jean 4:1-3 conseille : « Bien-aimés, n'ajoutez pas foi à tout esprit, mais éprouvez les esprits pour savoir s'ils sont de Dieu, car plusieurs faux prophètes sont venus dans le monde. » Le véritable Esprit de Dieu reconnaît q...
