Mark 13

No one knows the day or the hour. So. . . watch.

A few things keep me off-balance here:

• This generation will not pass away before these things happen (Mark 13:30) and many of the things did happen then.
• On the other hand, the celestial catastrophes and the Son of Man coming on the clouds and the gospel being preached to all the nations make it seem like it is still future.
  

The one who stands firm to the end will be saved (Mark 13:13). How many times I am tempted to quit? Things were much worse then than they are for me!
