Watch. What will be taking place on the earth just before Christ returns from heaven? The Temple will be destroyed; there will be false preachers doing false miracles, international wars, famine and earthquakes. It will be a terrible season as governments and family members will persecute true believers; the antichrist will rise to prominence. Into this worldwide chaos Jesus will return to bring justice and rescue his elect. The obvious question all would ask, ‘when will this happen?’ “No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come. It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with his assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch” (Mark 13:32-34). We are to live as if Jesus will return right away. Knowing the precise day and time is not important; knowing the season of his return is vitally important. Those who love Jesus will be living as if the day of his return is soon; they will be watching for him. How foolish it is to waste your life trying to make yourself as comfortable on this earth as possible. Be on guard and at high alert – Jesus is coming to take you away with him forever! That’s what matters most. What would change in your life if Jesus were coming tomorrow?
