The BIGGEST LESSON the NextGeneration needs to learn is about wasted TIME.

So much of our time is so easily wasted.

But Jesus wants us to understand how to REDEEM our TIME.

So, Jesus introduces us to EARTH'S FINAL DAY. Then He asks us to LIVE LIKE WE BELIEVE HIM!

Time is marching unstoppably toward the endthe end of the world, the end of life, the end of days.

As we open to Luke 21 we are opening the door to the future, and peering at the end of the world through the eyes of the Creator Himself, the Judge of all, and the One who will signal the end of days. With the end in sight, what does Jesus say we should be motivated to do? He tells us at the end of His sermon. He warns us that we can get mesmerized by life, hypnotized by time, and forget what we are here to do.

Each Year’s Final Day: Have you ever noticed the curious difference in time on New Year's Eve?

Almost every other day of the year, time seems the same. But that night it is brought home to us that time is moving. Usually, we use our watch to check our movement. We check our watch to be sure we get here or there at the right time. And it is us we think about moving.

But on New Year’s Eve, we watch as time moves inexorably into another year. As Ray Steadman said, “. . . on New Year's Eve . . . we can almost hear the stream of time beginning to murmur as it drops over the dam of that strange midnight hour. We become aware of the fact that we are not living an endless repetitive cycle, but we are moving on a straight line of time and we can never retrace it."

Life and time are so much reflected by how we look at our watch or clock. We check to see how long before something happens or to check to make sure we are arriving somewhere on time. Often the circle of a clock’s face makes us think time repeats itself over and over. We have noon today, noon tomorrow, and noon next week. We imagine that if we don’t get something done it will be okay because we will have another similar time tomorrow. The illusion of time being circular and coming around each day makes us miss the fact that time is going by irretrievably! What we have done, said, and beenis irrevocably done and unchangeably a part of our life. Our steps can’t be retraced. Our mistakes can not be undone. We can’t add what we have missed, we can’t erase what we have done. It is final. Time is linear and unstoppable. We are headed to the end of not only our earthly days, but towards earth’s final days.
