1 Thessalonians 5:5

5 Ye [humeis] are [este] all [pas] the children [huios] of light, [phos] and [kai] the children [huios] of the day: [hemera] we are [esmen] not [ou] of the night, [nux] nor [oude] of darkness. [skotos] KJV-Interlinear

 

 

5 for you are all sons of light and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness; NASB

 

 

What you think is what you are.You are the product, a descendant, of your own thinking.

 

Your thinking is a result of what you learn in life.And what you learn is a result of your attitude and what you focus your attention on in life.

 

Therefore, focus your attention on God and the things of God, namely Bible doctrine, and your life will be full of light, truth, or the substance with which you can see, evaluate, and determine your life.

 

Focus your attention on things that exclude God, and your life will be full of darkness, or the inability to orient to, or make determinations, from life.

 

The children of light, is a phrase meaning, the enlightened children of God. We simplify that and simply call them spiritually mature, or folks who are advanced in their spiritual life.They have the knowledge and wisdom to figure things out, and not get caught off guard, while others, immature believers or unbelievers, are lacking in their awareness of life around them.

 

For most folks, the life around them is simply that which they can see and do. It is their work or social life, their hobbies, or their education, their planning for this thing or that, but all within the context of activities in this life.

 

They exclude the bigger picture of God, the spiritual life, Gods historical plan, the many details of history unfolding around them, and how they all fit into the bigger puzzle.

 

Pauls context here is the Rapture, but his bigger context is the events of life in general. Those who possess knowledge of doctrine are not caught off guard when life hits the fan.

 

Those who are weak spiritually are the ones who cry, Why me? How can a loving God ? Boo-hoo, etc, etc.
