Coming of the lord jesus Christ » What the days will be like when the lord comes
But as the days of Noah were, so shall be the coming of the Son of man.

Then two men shall be in the field; one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; one shall be taken, and the other left. "Watch, therefore, for you know not at what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, That if the master of the house had known at what watch the thief comes, he would have watched, and would not have permitted his house to be broken open. For this reason, be you also ready; for at an hour in which you think not, the Son of man comes. Who then is that faithful and wise servant, whom his master has made ruler over his household servants, to give them their food in due time? Blessed is that servant, whom his master, when he comes, shall find so doing. Verily I say to you, That he will make him ruler over all his goods. But if that wicked servant shall say in his heart, My master delays his coming; and shall begin to strike his fellow-servants, and shall eat and drink with the drunken; the master of that servant will come in a day in which he looks not for him, and at an hour which he knows not, and will cut him in two, and appoint him his part with the hypocrites. There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. And they answered and said to him. Where, Lord? And he said to them: Where the body is, there will the vultures be gathered.
