Mt24

"Who is a faithful and sensible slave, whom the master has put in charge of his household? That slave whose master finds him working when he comes. Be ready." - Jesus

Jesus is coming again and every indicator in scripture would say His coming will be soon! If christians in the first century were to live as though Jesus would return in their lifetimes, how much more should we live "ready" over 2000 years later? Personally, I don't want to be surprised when Jesus returns. I want to be working and ready.

One doesn't have to extend their vision too far into this world to know that the times are ripe for Christ's return. And one doesn't have to extend vision too far to know that most believers (at least in our country) will be shocked and unprepared! Be ready.
