In these verses Jesus is giving a message to His disciples which we now call the Olivet Discourse. He was on the Mount of Olives having just come from Jerusalem where He prophesied that the city of Jerusalem and the Temple itself would be destroyed, “Not one stone left upon another,” Jesus said. The disciples then asked, “Tell us, when will these things be and what will be the sign of Your coming and of the end of the age?”

Jesus then gives the famous “signs of the times” in Matthew 24 that we might discern and understand the conditions of things in the world that will indicate we are in the last days, saying, “When you see these things, recognize that He is near, right at the door.”

Jesus said that there will be many false prophets and false messiahs who will mislead many. There will be wars and rumors of war. There will be famines and earthquakes that will grow greater in intensity and be closer together as the events of the last days draw near. There will be a great falling away, or apostasy, as unrighteousness and worldliness increases, and most people's love will grow cold.

Jesus then gave several parables on the importance of watching for the return of the Son of Man and being ready for the last days.

He said, “The coming of the Son of Man will be just like the days of Noah before the flood. They were eating and drinking and marrying and giving in marriage and did not understand until the flood came and took them all away.”

He said that the Lord will come like a thief in the night. “If the master of the house had known what hour the thief was coming, he would have been on the alert. For this reason, you too be ready; for the Son of Man is coming at an hour when you did not think He will.”

However, it’s important to understand that God gives us the signs of the times in advance so that the Day of the Lord will not come upon us like a thief in the night…

1 Thessalonians 5:2, 4-5, You yourselves know full well that the day of the Lord will come just like a thief in the night… But you, brethren, are not in darkness, that the day should overtake you like a thief; for you are all sons of light and sons of day.

In chapter 25, Jesus gives parables about the importance of watching and waiting and being ready for the last days. These parables tell us what God wants us to do with our lives while we're waiting for His return.

It’s about how you spend the life that God has given you while you wait for His return. There is a day fixed when we will give an account of how we lived. He has entrusted much into our care and He expects us to live wisely.
