The Coming of the Kingdom and End-Time Sayings

Luke 17:20-37

17
Chapter 17
20 But when the Pharisees asked him when the kingdom of God comes, he answered them and said, "The kingdom of God does not come with observation." 21 Nor will they say, "Look, here it is!" or "There!"; for look, the kingdom of God is among you. 22 But he said to the disciples, "Days will come when you will long to see one of the days of the Son of Man, and you will not see it." 23 And they will say to you, "Look there! Look here!"—do not go away or follow them. 24 For just as the lightning that flashes from one part of heaven to the other shines, so will the Son of Man be in his day. 25 But first he must suffer many things and be rejected by this generation. 26 And just as it happened in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Humanity. 27 They were eating, they were drinking, they were marrying, and they were being given in marriage until the day Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. 28 Likewise, just as it came to be in the days of Lot: they were eating, they were drinking, they were buying, they were selling, they were planting, they were building; 29 But on the day Lot went out from Sodom, fire and brimstone rained from heaven and destroyed them all. 30 It will be the same on the day the Son of Man is revealed. 31 On that day, whoever is on the roof and his belongings are in the house, let him not go down to take them. Likewise, the one in the field, let him not turn back to the things behind. 32 Remember Lot's wife. 33 Whoever seeks to save his soul will lose it, but whoever loses it will give it life. 34 I say to you, on that night there will be two upon one bed; the one will be taken along and the other will be let go. 35 There will be two women grinding at the same time; the one will be taken along, but the other will be released. 37 They answered, "Where, Lord?" He said to them, "Where the body is, there the eagles will also be gathered together."
