But know this, that if the master of
                            the house had known what hour the
                              thief would come, he would have
                           watched and not a
owed his house to
                                     be broken into.












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





                                                        As it was in the days of Noah, so
                                                         it will be at the coming of the
                                                         Son of Man. For in the days
                                                         before the flood, people were
                                                          eating and drinking, marrying,
                                                          and giving in marriage, up to the
                                                          day Noah entered the ark; and
                                                           they knew nothing about what
                                                           would happen until the flood
                                                           came and took them all away.
                                                            That is how it will be at the
                                                            coming of the Son of Man. Two
                                                            men will be in the field; one will
                                                             be taken and the other left.
                                                              Matthew 24:37-40


                                                            Even if the Day of the Lord is
                 Paul also described
                the day of the Lord as                     after the tribulation, it wi  sti 
                  a thief in the night.                     be a complete surprise to any
                                                           who are unprepared. (Luke 21:34)


                                                           Be on guard, so that your
                                                           hearts wi
 not be weighed
                                                            down with di ipation and
                                                          drunkee  and the woies
                                                          of life, and that day wi
 not
                                                           come on you su enly like a
                                                                trap. (Luke 21:34)






                 But you, brothers, are
                not in darkne  so that
                    this day should
                surprise you like a thief.
                  (1 The alonians 5:4)




      Therefore the "thief in the night"
      description of the coming of the
       Lord a lies to those who are
      unprepared – and to those who
       do not kp themselves alert.
