Let's do that one more time for emphasis:
[When
they are saying peace and security, sudden destruction will come upon
them]
"They" and "them" being those that currently reject the Gospel of Christ - i.e., unbelievers.
BTW, "peace and security" is basically how the English Standard Version translates the above verse - from about 65 A.D. to 68 A.D if memory servers. In other words, 1900+ years ago. And some interesting video:
1 Thessalonians 5:1-4 English Standard Version (ESV)
The Day of the Lord
5 Now concerning the times and the seasons, brothers, you have no need to have anything written to you. 2 For you yourselves are fully aware that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. 3
While people are saying, There is peace and security, then sudden destruction will come upon them as labor pains come upon a pregnant woman, and they will not escape. 4 But you are not in darkness, brothers, for that day to surprise you like a thief.
"Peace and Security" in regards to dividing Israel and creating a Palestinian state. I don't know that the 60th-year anniversary of the U.N. means anything specific but if you haven't seen the video before, you might find it interesting in light of the ESV verse above.
