Even in Jesus’ time people wanted to know when the end of time would be. His answer, without revealing the exact date, gives a vivid description of things that will take place before the end.  Although most of these events have already occurred, for those of us still on planet earth, Jesus tells us the key for success. 
    To prepare for the end, either our  own or the world’s, Jesus  says it is “perseverance’ that will secure our future.
Many times, we worry more  about perfection than perseverance. Success or failure, holiness or sin, Jesus wants us to keep trying. As he said, the road will be difficult. More importantly, the destination will be spectacular!
