A thief

[1 Thess 5 :2] "...the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night." [ 2 Pet 3:10] " But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night;..." [ Rev 3:3] " ... I will come on thee as a thief, ..." [ Rev 16: 15 ] " Behold, I come as a thief...." Satan stole us from Christ with deception, Christ will take us back. Christ is light, [ John 8: 12] Satan is darkness/ night. Christ is "DAY", in the "DAY" of the Lord [ 1 Thess 5: 4 -5 ] " But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, (Satan) that that day ( Christ) should overtake you as a thief. (5) Ye are all the children of the day: ( Christ) we are not of the night, ( Satan) nor of darkness." [ Matt 18: 23] " Therefore is the Kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants." Thus, Kingdom is also Christ. [ Luke 11: 20] " But if I with the finger of God cast out devils, no doubt the kingdom of God is come upon you." Hence, " KINGDOM " is Christ, "Day" is Christ. Day of the Lord/ Kingdom of the Lord/ Kingdom of heaven. [ Matt 13:52] " ...Therefore every scribe which is instructed unto the Kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which bringeth forth out of his treasure things new and old. " [ Dan 8:23] " And in the latter time of their kingdom, when the transgressors are come to the full, a king of fierce countenance, and understanding dark sentences, shall stand up." Christ is his Kingdom and church, therefore Churches are Kingdoms and pastors are kings of their churches. Also Pastors are the Husbands of their church, like Christ is the husband of his church, the woman he is to marry upon his return. Cities are churches and mayors are pastors. Everything is everything. Plug these into scripture as you read it, and see if more meaning is made available to you.
