Matthew 24:42-51

Listen to Matthew 24:42-51
42 "So always be ready, because you don't know the day your Lord will come.
43 Remember this: If the owner of the house knew what time of night a thief was coming, the owner would watch and not let the thief break in.
44 So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at a time you don't expect him.
45 "Who is the wise and loyal servant that the master trusts to give the other servants their food at the right time?
46 When the master comes and finds the servant doing his work, the servant will be blessed.
47 I tell you the truth, the master will choose that servant to take care of everything he owns.
48 But suppose that evil servant thinks to himself, 'My master will not come back soon,'
49 and he begins to beat the other servants and eat and get drunk with others like him?
50 The master will come when that servant is not ready and is not expecting him.
51 Then the master will cut him in pieces and send him away to be with the hypocrites, where people will cry and grind their teeth with pain.
