Biblically, being calm and collected is being spiritually sober in the Lord and is evident by our response to sudden changes in our circumstances or unexpected world events.
Apostle Paul writes to the believers in the region of Thessalonica encouraging them to remain sober when hearing about bad news or experiencing sudden adversity. The underlying premise of his letter was to redirect their focus. In doing so, he expresses for them to “be sober.” Contextual this phrase means for believers to remain calm and collected instead of overreacting to sudden adversity.
The fundamentals of belief in Christianity is that the Lord, Jesus Christ came, died and is risen and will return again.
Paul reminds believers that they have been translated in the marvelous light of the truth of God. He encourages them to watch, be alert or sober and to be ready, and not to be swayed or lulled by modern myths of nirvana or scoffers or wise tales. Rejoice because God is not slacked in his promise regarding the Return of the LORD.
