"As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be on the day the Son of Man comes.  In those days people ate and drank and got married;  but on the day Noah entered the ark, the flood came and destroyed them all.  So it was in the days of Lot;  people ate and drank, and bought and sold, and planted and built;  but on the day Lot left Sodom, God made fire and sulfur rain down from heaven, which destroyed them all.  So will it be on the day the Son of Man is revealed.

On that day, if you are on the rooftop, don't go down into the house to get your belongings;  and if you happen to be in the fields, do not turn back.  Remember Lot's wife!  Whoever tries to save his life will lose himself, but whoever gives his life will be born again.

I tell you, though two men are sharing the same bed, it might happen that one will be taken, and the other left;  though two women are grinding corn together, one might be taken and the other left."

Then they asked Jesus, "Where will this take place, Lord?"  And he answered, "Where the body is, there too will the vultures gather."

Luke 17:26-37

"Father in heaven, I pray for self-discipline and selflessness to delay my gratification for the true, bigger and more lasting rewards You have for me.  Amen."
