By Pastor Chris Parker – Luke 17:26-32.
Jesus teaches the importance of being spiritually prepared for His second coming. He compares it to the days of Noah and Lot, when people were caught off guard by sudden judgment because they were absorbed in their daily lives. The lesson is that Christ’s return will come unexpectedly, and those too focused on worldly concerns will face consequences. Jesus warns believers not to be like Lot’s wife, who looked back at her old life, symbolizing attachment to worldly things. The passage emphasizes the need for constant readiness, living with an eternal perspective, and full commitment to God.
