Luke 21:8-11 (KJV)

And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them. But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end is not by and by. Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.

There are signs of the Lord’s coming, but none of them tell the day or hour of his coming. Why does Jesus say here, “be not deceived, and be not terrified?” Perhaps it has something to do with false date setters, but the emphasis in the New Testament over and over is that we be ready for his coming; and for those who are ready his coming is not looked upon with terror but as being the greatest day of our lives.
