The passages discuss Jesus' second coming and the end times. They state that no one knows the exact day or hour of Jesus' return, except God the Father. When Jesus does return, it will be sudden and unexpected, like in the days of Noah when people were taken or left unexpectedly. Believers are told to stay alert and prepared by living righteously and keeping faith in Jesus as their Savior so they are not left behind.

4. Matthew 24:36
36 “But about that day or hour no one
knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor
the Son, but only the Father.

5. Matthew 24:37-38
37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will
be at the coming of the Son of Man.
38 For in the days before the flood, people
were eating and drinking, marrying and
giving in marriage, up to the day Noah
entered the ark;

6. Matthew 24:39
39 and they knew nothing about what
would happen until the flood came and
took them all away. That is how it will be at
the coming of the Son of Man.

7. Matthew 24:40-44
40 Two men will be in the field; one will be
taken and the other left. 41 Two women
will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be
taken and the other left.
42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do
not know on what day your Lord will come.

8. Matthew 24:40-44
43 But understand this: If the owner of the
house had known at what time of night the
thief was coming, he would have kept
watch and would not have let his house be
broken into. 44 So you also must be ready,
because the Son of Man will come at an
hour when you do not expect him.

11. Romans 13:11-14
11 And do this, understanding the present
time: The hour has already come for you to
wake up from your slumber, because our
salvation is nearer now than when we first
believed.
12 The night is nearly over; the day is
almost here. So let us put aside the deeds
of darkness and put on the armor of light.

12. Romans 13:11-14
13 Let us behave decently, as in the
daytime, not in carousing and
drunkenness, not in sexual immorality and
debauchery, not in dissension and
jealousy.
14 Rather, clothe yourselves with the Lord
Jesus Christ, and do not think about how to
gratify the desires of the flesh.

13. Matthew 24:40-41
40 Two men will be in the field; one will be
taken and the other left. 41 Two women
will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be
taken and the other left.

14. Matthew 24:40-41
40 Two men will be in the field; one will be
taken and the other left. 41 Two women
will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be
taken and the other left.
#1 Where are they taken?

15. Matthew 13:41-44
41 The Son of Man will send out his
angels, and they will weed out of his
kingdom everything that causes sin and all
who do evil. 42 They will throw them into
the blazing furnace, where there will be
weeping and gnashing of teeth. 43 Then
the righteous will shine like the sun in the
kingdom of their Father.

16. Matthew 24:31
31 And he will send his angels with a loud
trumpet call, and they will gather his elect
from the four winds, from one end of the
heavens to the other.

17. Deuteronomy 30:3-4
3 then the LORD your God will restore your
fortunes and have compassion on you and
gather you again from all the nations where
he scattered you. 4 Even if you have been
banished to the most distant land under the
heavens, from there the LORD your God
will gather you and bring you back.

18. Matthew 24:40-41
40 Two men will be in the field; one will be
taken and the other left. 41 Two women
will be grinding with a hand mill; one will be
taken and the other left.
#1 Where are they taken?
#2 How are we prepared?

19. Matthew 24:42-44
42 “Therefore keep watch, because you do not
know on what day your Lord will come. 43 But
understand this: If the owner of the house had
known at what time of night the thief was
coming, he would have kept watch and would
not have let his house be broken into. 44 So you
also must be ready, because the Son of Man
will come at an hour when you do not expect
him.

23. Revelation 5
5 Then one of the elders said to me, “Do not
weep! See, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the
Root of David, has triumphed. He is able to open
the scroll and its seven seals.” 6 Then I saw a
Lamb, looking as if it had been slain, standing at
the center of the throne, encircled by the four
living creatures and the elders. The Lamb had
seven horns and seven eyes, which are the
seven spirits of God sent out into all the earth.
7 He went and took the scroll from the right hand
of him who sat on the throne.

24. Revelation 5
8 And when he had taken it, the four living
creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down
before the Lamb. Each one had a harp and they
were holding golden bowls full of incense, which
are the prayers of God’s people. 9 And they
sang a new song, saying:
“You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its
seals, because you were slain, and with your
blood you purchased for God persons from
every tribe and language and people and nation.

25. Revelation 5
10 You have made them to be a kingdom and
priests to serve our God, and they will reign on
the earth.”
11 Then I looked and heard the voice of many
angels, numbering thousands upon thousands,
and ten thousand times ten thousand. They
encircled the throne and the living creatures and
the elders. 12 In a loud voice they were saying:
“Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive
power and wealth and wisdom and strength and
honor and glory and praise!”

26. Revelation 5
13 Then I heard every creature in heaven and
on earth and under the earth and on the sea,
and all that is in them, saying:
“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!”
14 The four living creatures said, “Amen,” and
the elders fell down and worshiped.
