Watch and pray

Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When her branch is yet tender, 

and putteth fort leaves, ye know that summer is near: 

So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, 

know that it is nigh, even at the doors. 

Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, 

till all these things be done. 

Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. 

📖 Matthew 24:32-36, Mark 13:28-32 

〰〰〰

But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 

For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating 

and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, 

until the day that Noe entered into the ark. 

And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; 

so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 

Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, 

and the other left. 

Two women shall be grinding at the mill; 

the one shall be taken, and the other left. 

Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come. 

📖 Matthew 24:37-42

Read also what Mark wrote:

But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, 

not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. 

Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. 

For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, 

who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, 

and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. 

Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, 

at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: 

Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. 

And what I say unto you I say unto all, 

Watch!

📖 Mark 13:32-37
