and so much is going on in the world around us and we'll see a little bit of that right now but

we're looking at a message titled when you see these things Jesus said that by the way

when you see these things and you can fill in the blank he said it numerous

portions in the New Testament when you see these things come to pass when you see these things

know this when you see these things look up pretty remarkable stuff so we're going to be reading

right now a collection of Bible verses that relate to Bible passages that relate to you and I as

believers being ready why because when we look around at the world there's so much thing there's

so many things happening that it's impossible to cover them all in light of what I'll call stage

setting I'm not saying that this prophecy is being fulfilled right now over there and this

one's being fulfilled down there and this I'm not going to say that but I will say this the stage

is getting set up and the show is going to start any day now so I'll read the odd number

verses if you'll join nice and loud on the even number verses and this again is a collection of

passages from the New Testament arranged for our title today therefore you also be ready

for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect but of that day and hour no one knows

not even the angels of heaven but my Father only

and my Father. Watch stand fast in the faith be brave be strong

take heed watch and pray for you do not know when the time is it is like a man going to a far

country who left his house and gave authority to his servants and to each his own work

and commanded the doorkeeper to watch

watch and pray let you enter into temptation

the spirit indeed is willing but the flesh is weak

but take heed to yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing
