Mark 13 : 24 - 27

Mark 13 : 28 - 37
Our Lord urges us to be alert and be aware.
He tells us all will pass away and only He will remain.
He also warns that we will never be able to learn the time or the hour.
The reason we are studying books of the Bible together is that we would know whom we are following.
That we would learn from our Lord and endeavor to live like Him for He is our only example and standard.
That we would know what we believe and be able to share with others the gospel we carry.
Lastly as this chapters warns us earnestly that we would not be deceived but know the plans of the Father and not be fooled by fake prophets or messiahs.
I dont know if you remember when we studied the letters written to Timothy, and decided to engage and be vigilant, the first thing we learnt is that just like our Lord came to fulfill the plans of the Father so are we,
In this chapter our Lord reveals to us how the Father plans to wrap up all, that we would not be frightened but find strength in Him for He is coming and this time forever.
He will change all once and for all.
