BRIGHT FUTURE! depends on NOW

Matthew 24:36-44

For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. For as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they were unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.

Then two men will be in the field; one will be taken and one left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one left. Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.

But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into.

Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.

Matthew 25:1-13

“Then the kingdom of heaven shall be likened to ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to meet the bridegroom. Now five of them were wise, and five were foolish. Those who were foolish took their lamps and took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. But while the bridegroom was delayed, they all slumbered and slept. “

And at midnight a cry was heard:

‘Behold, the bridegroom is coming; go out to meet him!’

Then all the virgins woke up and trimmed their lamps. The foolish ones said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil; our lamps are going out. “ ‘No,’ they replied, ‘there may not be enough for both us and you. Instead, go to those who sell oil and buy some for yourselves. “

But while they were on their way to buy the oil, the bridegroom arrived. The virgins who were ready went in with him to the wedding banquet. And the door was shut.

Luke 19:44 Jesus about Jerusalems future

And they will not leave one stone upon another in you, because you did not know the time of your visitation.” They will crush you into the ground, and your children with you. Your enemies will not leave a single stone in place, because you did not recognize it when God visited you. ”

“Later the others also came. ‘Lord, Lord,’ they said, ‘open the door for us!’ “

But he replied, ‘Truly I tell you, I don’t know you.’

Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day or the hour.

Moments of very critical NOWs in the Biblical history;

Fall of Man – temptation

Abrahams offering – forgetting cutting the birds

Jesus coming;

Jesus 3 disciples falling asleep! - “Spiritual sleep”

People choosing Barabbas…instead of freeing Jesus

The concept of self reflection and presence in the moment are presented along with simple exercises for the achievement of its principles. Published in the late 1990s, the book has been translated into 33 languages.

On one level I draw your attention to what is falce in you.

On another level I speak of a profound transformation of human consciousness – not as a distant future possibility – but available now – no matter who or where you are.

Words from Jesus 1976

17. “Miracles occur naturally as expressions of love. The real miracle is the love that inspires them. In this sense everything that comes from love is a miracle.”

Introduction

Everyone is struggling to attain happiness and avoid misfortune.

(Comment: Missfortune has roots in bad conditions ours and/or ancestors - Karma)

From the commonplace affairs of individuals to the great events that shape the course of history, each is at root an expression of the human aspiration for ever greater happiness.
