Ye who fear God! How long will you tarry before you
accept the truth ?
God made man to give expreSSIon to His own attributes. He
made him, so that, through his visible' life, the beauties hidden
in the divine attributes, should become known to the world. But
the Devil set himself against the divine plan, and strove to obscure
the attributes of God from the sight of man. He determined that
the beauty of God should not become manifest, so he began to
work for his own donlinion and his own superiority over man. This
is the eternal battle which has been raging from time immemorial.
Prophets of 'God, appearing from time to time, seek to establish His
glory. Friends of the Devil, on the other hand, seek to keep
people away froln Him, and lead them into a dangerous ·heedlessness.
These friends of the Devil attribute to the prophets the
evils which belong only to themselves, and paint the prophets
black, with the blackness which is in their own heart.. But, do
you think, the Lord of the Heaven and the Earth, would leave
His servants thus? Would He allow His own Light to be ex ..
tinguished, or even to let it be surrounded by darkness? No. God
would come to the assistance of His lone and helpless messengers,
with mighty signs. To raise them to eOlinence, He would spare
not even to level down the eminences of the world.

Alas, how tragic is this struggle that has been going on ever
since the world came into existence! There is God, the Creator
of the heaven and the earth, Master of the universe, Who has
power over all things, and Who can, by a gesture, destroy all
His mean creation. This Gcd, calls man to Himself, to honour
and exalt him. He wants to give him the blessing of His nearness,
and to offer him the cup of His love. He seeks to give him fellowship,
and opens to him the gates of His grace. He prepares
for His humble creature a great feast of His favours, and to
call him, sends out to him, His beloved and holy servants. But
man, foolish and lazy, refuses the call of God, and listens,
instead, to the call of the Devil and his children. He fills himself
VtTith sloth and filth with avidity, and refuses contemptuously
all the clean and wholesome food offered to him. H·e refuses
the Bounty of God, and in spite of a vision of His radiant face.

reject the Divine gifts? How long shall the gates of heaven
remain open, waiting for you to come in? How long will you
remain in the company of your enemy, the Devil, drinking of your
own blood, and killing your own soul? When will your eyes
open? When will you take the life-giving cup from the hands
of your Beloved? Yes, the cup, \vhich He has been holding

The Meaning of the Qur'an is a fresh English rendering of Tafhim-ul-Qur’an, Maulana Syed Abu Ala Moududi’s monumental and masterly Urdu translation of the Qur’an and a selection of his commentary. The translator has undertaken the delicate and difficult task of rendering this work in English under the guidance of the Maulana himself. Here is a work with a difference, by a dedicated scholar of an entirely different sort. An immense wealth of profound understanding of the Qur’an is here, a vast treasure of knowledge and deep insight, and a valuable exposition of some social, political, economic and legal teachings of the Qur’an.
This comprehensive Tafsir answers contemporary questions, and makes the Qur’an fully relevant to the concerns of day, yet it loses nothing of its timelessness nor sacrifices any of the traditional understanding. It demonstrates the unity and coherence of the Qur’an by centring everything on its message, like gems hung on a single string.
This Tafsir is particularly suitable for Muslims with no direct access to the Arabic original.

What does “Islam” mean?
The word الإسلام [Islam] is an infinitive word derived from س ل م [silm] root in if‘al pattern and used as noun and infinitive. The word silm means “release/keeping away; and to be distant from fear, doubt, trouble, lack of peace, unhappiness, fight, war, pain, suffering, material and spiritual inconveniences, weakness and decaying, and all the negativities.” This word is also the root of salim, selam, teslim, Islam etc. The word’s “Islam” form means “strengthening” [removal from problems, worries, fear, unhappiness, fights, wars, and similar negative things]. Hence, the religion Islam means the “the religion that strengthens humans [entire range of principles that protects and secures people by putting a distance between them and problems, worries, war, weakness, spiritual illness, unhappiness, and similar things].”

Festival of Matzoth
Your boasting is not good. Do you not know that a little leaven leavens the entire lump? Therefore, cleanse out the old leaven, so that you are a new lump, as you are unleavened. For also Maschiyach our Passover was offered for us. So then let us observe the festival, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of evil and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth. I wrote to you in my letter not to keep company with those who whore. And I certainly did not mean with those of this world who whore, or with the greedy of gain, or swindlers, or idolaters, since then you would need to go out of the world. But now I have written to you not to keep company with anyone called ‘a brother,’ if he is one who whores, or greedy of gain, or an idolater, or a reviler, or a drunkard, or a swindler – not even to eat with such a one

End-Time Prophecy 101: Will Jesus Return this Year?BeyondToday
This is the second part in the Beyond Today Bible study series: End-Time Prophecy 101. Over the centuries many have tried to predict the date of Jesus Christ's return. Dates have come and gone.

Bible Readings for ModuleWeek 2Parable of the Wheat and TaresChantellPantoja184
Bible Readings for Module/Week 2
Parable of the Wheat and Tares
Jesus told them another parable: "The kingdom of heaven is like a man who sowed good seed in his field. But while everyone was sleeping, his enemy came and sowed weeds among the wheat, and went away. When the wheat sprouted and formed heads, then the weeds also appeared.
"The owner's servants came to him and said, 'Sir, didn't you sow good seed in your field? Where then did the weeds come from?'
"'An enemy did this,' he replied.
"The servants asked him, 'Do you want us to go and pull them up?'
"'No,' he answered, 'because while you are pulling the weeds, you may root up the wheat with them. Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn.'" (Matthew 13:24–30)
Knowledge and wisdom
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and discipline. (Proverbs 1:7)
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of wisdom;
all who follow his precepts have good understanding.
To him belongs eternal praise. (Psalm 111:10)
Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make your paths straight.
Do not be wise in your own eyes;
fear the LORD and shun evil. (Proverbs 3:3–7)
Problem with the World (Sin)
Therefore, just as sin entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned. (Romans 5:12)
As it is written, "There is none righteous, not even one.” (Romans 3:10)
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. (Romans 3:23)
Strength
Strength in God, Not in Man
For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength. (I Corinthians 1:25)
I can do everything through him who gives me strength. (Philippians 4:13)
God Demonstrates His Strength in Our Weakness
Brothers, think of what you were when you were called. Not many of you were wise by human standards; not many were influential; not many were of noble birth. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong. He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things—and the things that are not—to nullify the things that are. (I Corinthians 1:26–28)
But he said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why, for Christ's sake, I delight in weaknesses, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, then I am strong. (II Corinthians 12:9–11)
The Strong are to Help the Weak
We who are strong ought to bear with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves. ...
The Book of Zephaniah is the ninth of the Twelve Minor Prophets of the Old Testament and Tanakh, preceded by the Book of Habakkuk and followed by the Book of Haggai. Zephaniah means "Yahweh has hidden/protected," or "Yahweh hides".

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

Question - Matt. 24:3
3. Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all
these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers
places. All these are the beginning of sorrows. Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be
offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.
But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come. When ye
therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the
mountains: Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house: Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes. And woe unto them that are with
child, and to them that give suck in those days! But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day: For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of
the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened. Then if any man shall
say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall
deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. For as the
lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great
glory. And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. Now learn a parable of the fig
tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto
you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels
of heaven, but my Father only. 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. But
know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up. Therefore be ye also
ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh. Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing. Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods. But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My
lord delayeth his coming; And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken; The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour
that he is not aware of, And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten
virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: But the
wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept. And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet
him. Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out. But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not
enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves. And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the
door was shut. Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us. But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day
nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. And unto one he
gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the
same, and made them other five talents. And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s money. After a
long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents:
behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things:
enter thou into the joy of thy lord. He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. His lord said
unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. Then he which had received the one
talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the
earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: Thou
oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath
ten talents. For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. And cast ye the unprofitable servant
into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory: And
before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats: And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on
the left. Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: For I was an hungred, and ye gave
me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me. Then shall the
righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee? Or
when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren,
ye have done it unto me. Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: For I was an hungred, and ye gave
me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. Then shall they also answer him,
saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee? Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you,
Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.

the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered
his house to be broken up. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour

The Creation- Genesis 1
And God said, Let there be light:
and there was light. And God saw
the light, that it was good: and God
divided the light from the darkness.
And God called the light Day, and
the darkness he called Night. And
the evening and the morning were
the first day.
And God said, Let there be a
firmament in the midst of the
waters, and let it divide the waters
from the waters. And God made
the firmament, and divided the
waters which were under the
firmament from the waters which
were above the firmament: and it
was so. And God called the
firmament Heaven. And the
evening and the morning were the
second day.
And God said, Let the waters
under the heaven be gathered
together unto one place, and let the
dry land appear: and it was so.
And God called the dry land Earth;
and the gathering together of the
waters called he Seas: and God
saw that it was good. And God
said, Let the earth bring forth grass,
the herb yielding seed, and the fruit
tree yielding fruit after his kind,
whose seed is in itself, upon the
earth: and it was so. And the earth
brought forth grass, and herb
yielding seed after his kind, and the
tree yielding fruit, whose seed was
in itself, after his kind: and God saw
that it was good. And the evening
and the morning were the third day.
And God said, Let there be lights
in the firmament of the heaven to
divide the day from the night; and
let them be for signs, and for
seasons, and for days, and years:
And let them be for lights in the
firmament of the heaven to give
light upon the earth: and it was so.
And God made two great lights; the
greater light to rule the day, and the
lesser light to rule the night: he
made the stars also. And God set
them in the firmament of the
heaven to give light upon the earth,
And to rule over the day and over
the night, and to divide the light
from the darkness: and God saw
that it was good. And the evening
and the morning were the fourth
day.
And God said, Let the waters
bring forth abundantly the moving
creature that hath life, and fowl that
may fly above the earth in the open
firmament of heaven. And God
created great whales, and every
living creature that moveth, which
the waters brought forth
abundantly, after their kind, and
every winged fowl after his kind:
and God saw that it was good. And
God blessed them, saying, Be
fruitful, and multiply, and fill the
waters in the seas, and let fowl
multiply in the earth. And the
evening and the morning were the
fifth day.
And God said, Let the earth bring
forth the living creature after his
kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and
beast of the earth after his kind:
and it was so. And God made the
beast of the earth after his kind,
and cattle after their kind, and every
thing that creepeth upon the earth
after his kind: and God saw that it
was good.
And God said, Let us make man
in our image, after our likeness:
and let them have dominion over
the fish of the sea, and over the
fowl of the air, and over the cattle,
and over all the earth, and over
every creeping thing that creepeth
upon the earth. So God created
man in his own image, in the image
of God created he him; male and
female created he them. And God
blessed them, and God said unto
them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and
replenish the earth, and subdue it:
and have dominion over the fish of
the sea, and over the fowl of the air,
and over every living thing that
moveth upon the earth.
And God said, Behold, I have
given you every herb bearing seed,
which is upon the face of all the
earth, and every tree, in the which
is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to
you it shall be for meat. And to
every beast of the earth, and to
every fowl of the air, and to every
thing that creepeth upon the earth,
wherein there is life, I have given
every green herb for meat: and it
was so.
And God saw every thing that he
had made, and, behold, it was very
good. And the evening and the
morning were the sixth day.

Dan. 2:40 “And the fourth kingdom shall be strong as iron:

and as iron that breaketh all these, shall it break in pieces and

part of clay, so the kingdom shall be partly strong, and partly
broken.

also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst
unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.
His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been
faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou
into the joy of thy lord. Then he which had received the one talent came
and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou
hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: And I was
afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is
thine. His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful
servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I
have not strawed: Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the
exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with
usury. Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath
ten talents. For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have
abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which
he hath. And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there
shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. When the Son of man shall come
in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the
throne of his glory: And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he
shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep
from the goats: And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats
on the left. Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye
blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the
foundation of the world: For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was
thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: Naked,
and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye
came unto me. Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when
saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed
thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee? And
the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch
as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done
it unto me. Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from
me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave
me no drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed
me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not. Then shall they also
Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name,
saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many. And ye shall hear of wars and
rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come
to pass, but the end is not yet. For nation shall rise against nation, and
kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and
earthquakes, in divers places. All these are the beginning of sorrows.
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall
be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be
offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another. And
many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because
iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall
endure unto the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the
kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations;
and then shall the end come. When ye therefore shall see the abomination
of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place,
(whoso readeth, let him understand:) Then let them which be in Judaea
flee into the mountains: Let him which is on the housetop not come down to
take any thing out of his house: Neither let him which is in the field return
back to take his clothes. And woe unto them that are with child, and to
them that give suck in those days! But pray ye that your flight be not in the
winter, neither on the sabbath day: For then shall be great tribulation, such
as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall
be. And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be
saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened. Then if any
man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. For there
shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and
wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very
elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you,
Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret
chambers; believe it not. For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and
shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened,
and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven,
and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall
all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming
in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he shall send his
angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his
elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other. Now learn a
parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth
leaves, ye know that summer is nigh: So likewise ye, when ye shall see all
these things, know that it is near, even at the doors. Verily I say unto you,
This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled. Heaven and
earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. But of that day
and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father
only. 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.

16. Who then is a faithful and wise servant,
whom his lord hath made ruler over his
household, to give them meat in due
season? Blessed is that servant, whom his
lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
Verily I say unto you, That he shall make
him ruler over all his goods. But and if that
evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord
delayeth his coming; And shall begin to
smite his fellowservants, and to eat and
drink with the drunken; The lord of that
servant shall come in a day when he
looketh not for him, and in an hour that he
is not aware of, And shall cut him asunder,
and appoint him his portion with the
hypocrites: there shall be weeping and
gnashing of teeth.
Then shall the kingdom of heaven be
likened unto ten virgins, which took their
lamps, and went forth to meet the
bridegroom. And five of them were wise,
and five were foolish. They that were
foolish took their lamps, and took no oil
with them: But the wise took oil in their
vessels with their lamps. While the
bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and
slept. And at midnight there was a cry
made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go
ye out to meet him. Then all those virgins
arose, and trimmed their lamps. And the
foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your
oil; for our lamps are gone out. But the
wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there
be not enough for us and you: but go ye
rather to them that sell, and buy for
yourselves. And while they went to buy,
the bridegroom came; and they that were
ready went in with him to the marriage: and
the door was shut. Afterward came also
the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open
to us. But he answered and said, Verily I
say unto you, I know you not. Watch
therefore, for ye know neither the day nor
the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.
For the kingdom of heaven is as a man
travelling into a far country, who called his
own servants, and delivered unto them his
goods. And unto one he gave five talents,
to another two, and to another one; to
every man according to his several ability;
and straightway took his journey. Then he
that had received the five talents went and
traded with the same, and made them
other five talents. And likewise he that had
received two, he also gained other two.
But he that had received one went and
digged in the earth, and hid his lord’s
money. After a long time the lord of those
servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.
And so he that had received five talents
came and brought other five talents,
saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five
talents: behold, I have gained beside them
five talents more. His lord said unto him,
Well done, thou good and faithful servant:
thou hast been faithful over a few things, I
will make thee ruler over many things:
enter thou into the joy of thy lord. He also
that had received two talents came and
said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two
talents: behold, I have gained two other
talents beside them. His lord said unto
him, Well done, good and faithful servant;
thou hast been faithful over a few things, I
will make thee ruler over many things:
enter thou into the joy of thy lord. Then he
which had received the one talent came
and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an
hard man, reaping where thou hast not
sown, and gathering where thou hast not
strawed: And I was afraid, and went and
hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou
hast that is thine. His lord answered and
said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful
servant, thou knewest that I reap where I
sowed not, and gather where I have not
strawed: Thou oughtest therefore to have
put my money to the exchangers, and then
at my coming I should have received mine
own with usury. Take therefore the talent
from him, and give it unto him which hath
ten talents. For unto every one that hath
shall be given, and he shall have
abundance: but from him that hath not shall
be taken away even that which he hath.
And cast ye the unprofitable servant into
outer darkness: there shall be weeping and
When the Son of man shall come in his
glory, and all the holy angels with him, then
shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
And before him shall be gathered all
nations: and he shall separate them one
from another, as a shepherd divideth his
sheep from the goats: And he shall set the
sheep on his right hand, but the goats on
the left. Then shall the King say unto them
on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my
Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for
you from the foundation of the world: For I
was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I
was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a
stranger, and ye took me in: Naked, and
ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited
me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Then shall the righteous answer him,
saying, Lord, when saw we thee an
hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave
thee drink? When saw we thee a stranger,
and took thee in? or naked, and clothed
thee? Or when saw we thee sick, or in
prison, and came unto thee? And the King
shall answer and say unto them, Verily I
say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it
unto one of the least of these my brethren,
ye have done it unto me. Then shall he
say also unto them on the left hand, Depart
from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire,
prepared for the devil and his angels: For I
was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat:
I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: I
was a stranger, and ye took me not in:
naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in
prison, and ye visited me not. Then shall
they also answer him, saying, Lord, when
saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a
stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and
did not minister unto thee? Then shall he
answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you,
Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least
of these, ye did it not to me. And these
shall go away into everlasting punishment:
but the righteous into life eternal.

19. Not until the personal advent of Christ can His people receive the
kingdom. The Saviour said: “When the Son of man shall come in
His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then shall He sit upon
the throne of His glory...{GC 322.2}
So the throne of glory represents the kingdom of glory; and this
kingdom is referred to in the Saviour’s words: “When the Son of
man shall come in His glory, and all the holy angels with Him, then
shall He sit upon the throne of His glory: and before Him shall be
gathered all nations.” Matthew 25:31, 32. This kingdom is yet
future. It is not to be set up until the second advent of Christ. {GC

country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.
Dan. 7:13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son

influence, and He has said to you: Improve these till I come. When
the Master cometh and reckoneth with His servants, and all are
called to the strictest account as to how they have used the talents
entrusted to them, how will you, my dear brother, bear the
investigation? Will you be prepared to return to the Master His
talents doubled, laying before Him both principal and interest,

the cleansing of the sanctuary, brought to view in Daniel 8:14; the
coming of the Son of man to the Ancient of Days, as presented in
Daniel 7:13; and the coming of the Lord to His temple, foretold by
Malachi, are descriptions of the same event; and this is also
represented by the coming of the bridegroom to the marriage,
described by Christ in the parable of the ten virgins, of Matthew 25.

Mat 24:1,2 At lumabas si Jesus sa templo, at payaon sa kaniyang lakad; at nagsilapit sa kaniya ang kaniyang mga alagad upang sa kaniya'y ipamalas ang mga gusali ng templo. Datapuwa't siya'y sumagot at sa kanila'y sinabi, Hindi baga ninyo nangakikita ang lahat ng mga bagay na ito? katotohanang sinasabi ko sa inyo, Dito'y walang maiiwang isang bato sa ibabaw ng ibang bato, na hindi ibabagsak.
