But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night…” (2 Peter 3:10) This is an interesting characterization. The notion you’re given is that some of us will be caught off guard and taken by surprise when Jesus returns and the heavens and earth begin to pass away.
This is why Jesus explains to us that we should learn the parable of the fig tree. He warns us to WATCH! Why? So we will be prepared physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. Committed to never giving or letting up! We should be like the good man of the house, who if he had known what watch the thief would come, he would not have suffered his house to be broken up. In other words, BE PREPARED because we are living in a day and age unlike any other time in the history of mankind and if we become complacent we could suffer loss. So watch and consider the following buds of the fig tree.
"Truth is so obscure in these times, and falsehood so established, that, unless we love the truth, we cannot know it.The ear tests words as the tongue tastes food"
