THE MESSAGE:
As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. Tell us”, they said. When will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?” (Matthew 24:3).
Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ in responding to the question about the end time and His second coming, made it clear to His disciples and by extension to us today, that the signs are as stated in Matthew 24:4-30. But about the day and hour, they are unknown but are only known by God alone. The return of Christ is a real event that is yet to happen. And so there is that day or hour. There is a fixed day and hour when Christ will return. It is an actual event and not a moonlight story. The day and hour of His return is secret in the sense that no one knows, but only the Father.
The return of Christ will be the same way and manner just as in Noah’s day. They were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the flood came and destroyed them. Christians today should learn from the errors of Noah’s days so as not to be taken unawares.
PRAYER: Father I ask for Your grace to remain faithful to the end in Jesus name. Amen.
