Coming of the lord jesus Christ » What the days will be like when the lord comes
As were the days of Noah, so will the arrival of the Son of man be. For as in the days before the deluge people ate and drank, married and were married, till the day Noah entered the ark; and as they knew nothing till the deluge came and swept them all away; so will the arrival of the Son of man be. read more.
Then there will be two men in the field, one will be taken and one will be left; two women will be grinding at the millstone, one will be taken and one will be left. Keep on the watch then, for you never know what day your Lord will come. But be sure of this, that if the householder had known at what watch in the night the thief was coming, he would have been on the watch, he would not have allowed his house to be broken into. So be ready yourselves, for the Son of man is coming at an hour you do not expect. Now where is the trusty and thoughtful servant, whom his lord and master has set over his household to assign them their supplies at the proper time? Blessed is that servant if his lord and master finds him so doing when he arrives! I tell you truly, he will set him over all his property. But if the bad servant says to himself, 'My lord and master is long of coming,' and if he starts to beat his fellow-servants and to eat and drink with drunkards, that servant's lord and master will arrive on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour which he does not know; he will cut him in two and assign him the fate of the impious. There men will wail and gnash their teeth.

And just as it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the days of the Son of man; they were eating, drinking, marrying and being married, till the day Noah entered the ark ??then came the deluge and destroyed them all. Or just as it was in the days of Lot; they were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting and building, read more.
but on the day that Lot left Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven and destroyed them all. So will it be on the day the Son of man is revealed. On that day, if a man is on the housetop and his goods inside the house, he must not go down to fetch them out; nor must a man in the field turn back (remember Lot's wife). Whoever tries to secure his life will lose it, and whoever loses it will preserve it. On that night, I tell you, there will be two men in the one bed, the one will be taken and the other left; two women will be grinding together, the one will be taken and the other left." -- They asked him, "Where, Lord?" And he said to them, "Where the body is lying, there the vultures will gather."
