WORD Research this...1 Thessalonians 5
- 1 But concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need that anything be written to you.
- 2 For you yourselves know well that the day of the Lord comes like a thief in the night.
- 3 For when they are saying, “Peace and safety,” then sudden destruction will come on them, like birth pains on a pregnant woman; and they will in no way escape.
- 4 But you, brothers, aren’t in darkness, that the day should overtake you like a thief.
- 5 You are all children of light, and children of the day. We don’t belong to the night, nor to darkness,
- 6 so then let’s not sleep, as the rest do, but let’s watch and be sober.
- 7 For those who sleep, sleep in the night, and those who are drunk are drunk in the night.
- 8 But let us, since we belong to the day, be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and, for a helmet, the hope of salvation.
- 9 For God didn’t appoint us to wrath, but to the obtaining of salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ,
- 10 who died for us, that, whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
- 11 Therefore exhort one another, and build each other up, even as you also do.
- 12 But we beg you, brothers, to know those who labor among you, and are over you in the Lord, and admonish you,
- 13 and to respect and honor them in love for their work’s sake. Be at peace among yourselves.
- 14 We exhort you, brothers, admonish the disorderly, encourage the faint-hearted, support the weak, be patient toward all.
- 15 See that no one returns evil for evil to anyone, but always follow after that which is good, for one another, and for all.
- 16 Rejoice always.
- 17 Pray without ceasing.
- 18 In everything give thanks, for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus toward you.
- 19 Don’t quench the Spirit.
- 20 Don’t despise prophesies.
- 21 Test all things, and hold firmly that which is good.
- 22 Abstain from every form of evil.
- 23 May the God of peace himself sanctify you completely. May your whole spirit, soul, and body be preserved blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
- 24 He who calls you is faithful, who will also do it.
- 25 Brothers, pray for us.
- 26 Greet all the brothers with a holy kiss.
- 27 I solemnly command you by the Lord that this letter be read to all the holy brothers.
- 28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you. Amen.

How This All Works
Your persistent session key, together with your favourite verse, authenticates you. It links to all your notes and tags in the Bible. You can share it with loved ones so they can see your notes and tags.
However, to modify your notes and tags, you need both the persistent session key and your favourite verse.
Please Keep Your Favourite Verse Private
Your persistent session key and favourite verse provide you exclusive access to edit your notes and tags. Think of your persistent session key as a username and your favourite verse as a password. Therefore, ensure your favourite verse is kept private.
The persistent session key allows viewing, while editing is only possible when the correct favourite verse is provided.

Basic Hash Usage Explained
At getBible, we've established a robust system to keep our API synchronized with the Crosswire project's modules. Let me explain how this integration works in simple terms.
We source our Bible text directly from the Crosswire modules. To monitor any updates, we generate "hash values" for each chapter, book, and translation. These hash values serve as unique identifiers that change only when the underlying content changes, thereby ensuring a tight integration between getBible and the Crosswire modules.
Every month, an automated process runs for approximately three hours. During this window, we fetch the latest Bible text from the Crosswire modules. Subsequently, we compare the new hash values and the text with the previous ones. Any detected changes trigger updates to both our official getBible hash repository and the Bible API for all affected translations. This system has been operating seamlessly for several years.
Once the updates are complete, any application utilizing our Bible API should monitor the hash values at the chapter, book, or translation level. Spotting a change in these values indicates that they should update their respective systems.
Hash values can change due to various reasons, including textual corrections like adding omitted verses, rectifying spelling errors, or addressing any discrepancies flagged by the publishers maintaining the modules at Crosswire.
The Crosswire initiative, also known as the SWORD Project, is the "source of truth" for getBible. Any modifications in the Crosswire modules get reflected in our API within days, ensuring our users access the most precise and current Bible text. We pledge to uphold this standard as long as getBible exists and our build scripts remain operational.
We're united in our mission to preserve the integrity and authenticity of the Bible text. If you have questions or require additional information, please use our support system. We're here to assist and will respond promptly.
Thank you for your understanding and for being an integral part of the getBible community.
