What The Church Should Be Doing Until The Second Coming
Sermons On The Gospel Readings
For Sundays In Advent, Christmas, And Epiphany
In folklore and literature there are many famous deadlines. You recall how "Oil Can Harry" grabbed the fair maiden and said, "If you don't give me the deed to your ranch by sundown, I'll tie you on the railroad tracks!" Then there is the Mafia's Godfather contract. "Either your signature or your brains will be on the contract tomorrow." And who could forget lovely Cinderella and her deadline, the stroke of midnight? In our text for today Jesus is talking about another famous deadline, his second coming.
