wmth - Luke:17:20-37

wmth@Luke:17:20 @ Being asked by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God was coming, He answered, »The Kingdom of God does not so come that you can stealthily watch for it.

wmth@Luke:17:21 @ Nor will they say, `See here!' or `See there!' –for the Kingdom of God is within you.«

wmth@Luke:17:22 @ Then, turning to His disciples, He said, »There will come a time when you will wish you could see a single one of the days of the Son of Man, but will not see one.

wmth@Luke:17:23 @ And they will say to you, `See there!' `See here!' Do not start off and go in pursuit.

wmth@Luke:17:24 @ For just as the lightning, when it flashes, shines from one part of the horizon to the opposite part, so will the Son of Man be on His day.

wmth@Luke:17:25 @ But first He must endure much suffering, and be rejected by the present generation.

wmth@Luke:17:26 @ »And as it was in the time of Noah, so will it also be in the time of the Son of Man.«

wmth@Luke:17:27 @ Men were eating and drinking, taking wives and giving wives, up to the very day on which Noah entered the Ark, and the Deluge came and destroyed them all.

wmth@Luke:17:28 @ The same was true in the time of Lot: they were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building;

wmth@Luke:17:29 @ but on the day that Lot left Sodom, God rained fire and brimstone from the sky and destroyed them all.

wmth@Luke:17:30 @ Exactly so will it be on the day that the veil is lifted from the Son of Man.

wmth@Luke:17:31 @ »On that day, if a man is on the roof and his property indoors, let him not go down to fetch it; and, in the same way, he who is in the field, let him not turn back.«

wmth@Luke:17:32 @ Remember Lot's wife.

wmth@Luke:17:33 @ Any man who makes it his object to keep his own life safe, will lose it; but whoever loses his life will preserve it.

wmth@Luke:17:34 @ On that night, I tell you, there will be two men in one bed: one will be taken away and the other left behind.

wmth@Luke:17:35 @ There will be two women turning the mill together: one will be taken away and the other left behind.«

wmth@Luke:17:36 @ []

wmth@Luke:17:37 @ »Where, Master?« they inquired. »Where the dead body is,« He replied, »there also will the vultures flock together.«
