We’re in the midst of waiting for Jesus to return, and he will. But how are we supposed to wait? On the one hand he says he could return at any moment, and on the other he tells us it could be a long time. Jesus gives a series of vignettes and parables in Matthew 24-25 that are intended to answer these questions. We look at three of them this week.We should wait ready for Jesus’ return so that we’re not surprised when he comes—knowing that we’ll give an account to him, even if his coming is long delayed.

Scripture References: Matthew 24:36-51, Matthew 25:1-46

From Series: "Parables"

Parables are simply stories intended to illustrate and teach. Jesus often taught about the Kingdom with parables in order to help people remember his teaching. He used parables to conceal truth from some, and reveal truth to others.
