Jesus said to his disciples: “As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be in the days of the Son of Man; they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage up to the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all. Similarly, as it was in the days of Lot: they were eating, drinking, buying, selling, planting, building; on the day when Lot left Sodom, fire and brimstone rained from the sky to destroy them all. So it will be on the day the Son of Man is revealed. On that day, someone who is on the housetop and whose belongings are in the house must not go down to get them, and likewise one in the field must not return to what was left behind. Remember the wife of Lot. Whoever seeks to preserve his life will lose it, but whoever loses it will save it. I tell you, on that night there will be two people in one bed; one will be taken, the other left. And there will be two women grinding meal together; one will be taken, the other left.” They said to him in reply, “Where, Lord?” He said to them, “Where the body is, there also the vultures will gather.” -Luke 17:26-37

The days of Noah and the days of Lot were much like today. The world lost had her moral compass and forgot the ways of the Lord. Wickedness abounded without regard or respect for the Lord.

History repeats itself because mankind has a short memory, but those faithful to God still remember. Today, Christ calls you to prepare yourself for His coming and to warn your neighbors. While we do not know the hour, we still remember and are called to remind others that there is time yet today to repent and be right with the Lord.
