1 Thessalonians 5:7

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

1 Thessalonians 5:7. For they that sleep sleep in the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.

People were a little more decorous in the Apostle’s day than they are now, for there are some who are drunk in the day now-a-days, and though we have certainly improved in some things, we seem to have gone back in this. But, at any rate, drunkenness may seem suitable to benighted persons, but it is not suitable to those who profess to have the light of God’s grace.
