Signs of the End (Mark 13:1-37)
These and other scriptures give us many details about the end times and the signs of those times. These scriptures and details are just as important to study and take into our hearts as any other passages. Some in there zeal to take basic signs God has given us and make them specific have added details that they can not know for sure and this is a mistake.
The key thing to understand is that it is coming and Jesus gave us the big take away to all this information in the last word of this chapter. In fact, it seems like he almost shouted it. Watch! To watch means to be awake and alert. The idea is of a worker who thought the boss was going to be gone a long time and thought he would take a nap, but the boss came and found him sleeping. We do not want Jesus to come and find us sleeping, but awake, alert, and busy for him. Watch!
