1 of 40

What if you spoke at length about something….say, forty sentences, developing a complex thought, and later you realized that the people telling the story were taking one of those sentences and ignoring the rest?

These are the sorts of things that happen to Jesus…

In Matthew 24, Jesus was asked by His disciples, “Tell us, when will these things be, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”

Jesus replied, “See that no one leads you astray….” and started to teach. It wasn’t a short devotional. It contained a lot of instruction. Yet 2000 years later, one verse is quoted most often.

Matthew 24:36
”But concerning that day and hour, no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the son, but the Father only.”

You can almost see Jesus shaking his head. That verse, cherry picked from forty verses, is most of what people remember from that chapter, but He said a lot more.

This Sunday at The Bridge we’ll be talking about the “lot more” as we dive in to week four of our series, The Principles. This week we’re focusing on the principle of living with eyes toward the future.

We can’t wait to worship with you! 10:30AM at The Culture House in Olathe.
