This morning we are going to be finishing off the 24th Chapter in the Gospel of Matthew. We will then partake of Communion as a Church family.

Our text is some very controversial text. Many astute theologians, even within Christian evangelical camps, differ on their views of what Jesus is speaking of in the text.

Jesus is going to be giving us the signs of His return for His saints. To do this He puts before us in our text a fig tree, the days of Noah, and two servants. 

36 “But concerning that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father only. 37 For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, 39 and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man (Matthew 24:36-39).

The bottom line is that He is coming at a time in which no one knows. it could happen before we meet tomorrow morning, during our service, or at any time after that. The BIG question is: Are we prepared for His return?
