Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on Matthew 24:42-51

42Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will come.
43But understand this: If the homeowner had known in which watch of the night the thief was coming, he would have kept watch and would not have let his house be broken into.
44For this reason, you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour you do not expect.
45Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household, to give the others their food at the proper time?
46Blessed is that servant whose master finds him doing so when he returns.
47Truly I tell you, he will put him in charge of all his possessions.
48But suppose that servant is wicked and says in his heart, ‘My master will be away a long time.’
49And he begins to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards.
50The master of that servant will come on a day he does not expect and at an hour he does not anticipate.
51Then he will cut him to pieces and assign him a place with the hypocrites, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
