We are not of the night, nor of darkness. 5:4 You are all sons of light and sons of the day. 5:3 But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. This means it could not refer to the rapture itself, but rather to the day Jesus comes back.įor when they say, “Peace and safety!” then sudden destruction comes upon them…and they shall not escape. The day of the Lord will not be as a thief to the brethren. Unfortunately, many people stop reading at verse two and do not continue to see to whom Jesus will come as a thief He is coming ‘as a thief’ to those not expecting him, that is, to those in darkness! The language is clear that “they”, the ones in darkness, are the ones to whom sudden destruction will come and “you,” the brethren, are sons of light, not darkness. The supposed problem is resolved in the rest of the First Thessalonians Five passage. The only way this could break unexpectedly upon the world is to have it begin immediately after the rapture of the church.” “If the Day of the Lord did not begin until the second advent, since that event is preceded by signs, the Day of the Lord could not come as a “thief in the night,” unexpected, and unheralded, as it is said it will come in First Thessalonians 5:2. ![]() Pentecost, a professor at Dallas Theological Seminary, writes in his book Things to Come: It is commonly argued that “the thief in the night” must refer to the rapture and cannot refer to the second coming because that would be obvious, as people could simply read in their Bible. 5:2 The opening scene made a lasting impression on me, and millions of other Americans, that the rapture will come unexpectedly and without warning, just like a thief in the night! The basis of the movie was derived from First Thessalonians Chapter Five where, the Day of the Lord comes as a thief in the night. ![]() Only to discover the electric razor running and abandoned in the sink – her husband obviously raptured, all the while the radio explained the disappearance of perhaps millions of people around the world.

This compilation is called, "The Book of Protection" (Piruvana pothvahanse). The erudite monks of Sri Lanka, circa 1235 AD, compiled some of these discourses delivered by the Buddha and such Enlightened Ones as: The Venerable Sariputta and Moggallana, besides others. We can understand that they are very powerful discourses such as, the discourse of the Banner Protection (Dhajagga sutta), The Jewel discourse (Ratana Sutta), the discourses of the Factors of Enlightenment (Bojjhanga Suttas), the discourse on the Protection of the Peacock (Moraparitta Sutta), and the Atanatiya Sutta. The Buddha has delivered many different discourses in such a manner to promote protection from illnesses, fear, and danger. He further said, "If O monks, indeed, that monk would have permeated the four royal clans of snakes with a loving mind, that monk would not have died being bitten by a snake". The Buddha admonished the monks to extend loving thoughts to all the four royal clans of snakes. The Buddha has delivered this, according to the story behind the discourse, that once when a snake bit a certain monk, he died. According to the discourses, the first instance that we come to where the Buddha has delivered a discourse, as a 'discourse of protection', is the Khanda Sutta (discourse on aggregates) of Cullavagga in the code of discipline. They all recite the discourses delivered by the Buddha as stark statements of truth. When the monks, nuns, laymen or laywomen recite paritta. However, first one should understand clearly that this type of Buddhist chanting is not a kind of incantation or invocation but an asseveration of truth. "Friends, abandon all what is not yours" he exalted. "There is nothing to cling to in the world", the Buddha said. The Buddha's constant admonition is not to cling to any of them. If one would cling to things like this it certainly becomes one of the four modes of clinging. In other words, it becomes a sort of fuel for the continuation of the samsaric journey. The Buddha himself said that it becomes a hindrance that leads to weakening one's mind (wisdom) and renewal of existence in the sensual sphere, material sphere, and immaterial sphere. Thus, Pirith is now regarded as a safeguard against fear and malady.Įven though it has now been transformed into a large ceremony or a kind of ritual, one should not cling to these rites and rituals as the real teachings of the Buddha. It is a Buddhist tradition that different chanting ceremonies are held in different countries specifically in order to ward off illness, fear, and danger from evil spirits, and to invoke the blessings of the Triple Gem for protection. ![]() Now, it has become a prophylactic and ritualistic function of Buddhists to ward off all sorrows, (sabba dukkha) ailments, (sabba roga), and all fears ( sabba bhaya). ![]() Originally this recitation was initiated as a simple avowal of truth or the invoking of blessings through the power of the internal virtues of a person then, as the extolling of the infallible virtues of the Triple Gem. As an asseveration, it can be done individually or as a group. This is the recitation or chanting of the word of the Buddha. "It protects one from all directions", is the traditional definition. Pirith is the Sinhala word for paritta (in Pali), which means protection. The content was one of the top performing stories of the day.

There is some overlap between the PRX functions and CALL routines, but in this section, we focus on three PRX functions: PRXPARSE, PRXMATCH, and PRXCHANGE. Recall that a function returns a value whereas a CALL routine can modify the value of variables and doesn't return a value. This interactive course will help you get up to speed on Perl, starting off with basic concepts like loops, strings, and arrays.

Perl is a dynamic programming language that lets an XP team embrace the inevitable change caused by effective communication. In the early 2000s, SAS added functions and CALL routines that support Perl regular expressions. Other books may teach you to program in Perl, but this book will turn you. Regular expressions were introduced by mathematicians in the early 1950s, and Perl, a programming language that takes advantage of regular expressions, was developed in the late 1980s. Learning Perl teaches you the basics and shows you how to write programs up to. You can often accomplish in a single Perl regular expression something that would require a combination of traditional SAS functions.
