Are We Living in the Last Days?

Part 4

Mat 24:30	And then at last, the sign of the coming of the Son of Man will appear in the heavens, and there will be deep mourning among all the nations of the earth. And they will see the Son of Man arrive on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
Mat 24:31	And he will send forth his angels with the sound of a mighty trumpet blast, and they will gather together his chosen ones from the farthest ends of the earth and heaven.
Mat 24:32	"Now learn a lesson from the fig tree. When its buds become tender and its leaves begin to sprout, you know without being told that summer is near.
Mat 24:33	Just so, when you see the events I've described beginning to happen, you can know his return is very near, right at the door.
Mat 24:34	I assure you, this generation will not pass from the scene before all these things take place.
Mat 24:35	Heaven andearth will disappear, but my words will remain forever.
Mat 24:36	"However, no one knows the day or the hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows.
Mat 24:37	"When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah's day.
Mat 24:38	In those days before the Flood, the people were enjoying banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat.
Mat 24:39	People didn't realize what was going to happen until the Flood came and swept them all away. That is the way it will be when the Son of Man comes.
Mat 24:40	"Two men will be working together in the field; one will be taken, the other left.
Mat 24:41	Two women will be grinding flour at the mill; one will be taken, the other left.
Mat 24:42	So be prepared, because you don't know what day your Lord is coming.
