I hear this quoted again and again. Read the verse before Jesus said that. Jesus was talking about.
Mat 24:35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
Mat 24:36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
Jesus also said,
Rev_3:3 Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.
We are told to WATCH. If we don't watch, He will come as a thief so if we DO watch, we will know when it is close.
You forgot the verse right before that which is the most important!!! “ 34 Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.”
Tribulation and 1000 year reign has already happened, we are living in the period of deception per Rev 20.
I don't remember Satan being chained and if he was, his chain is too long. Verse 34 is talking about the generation that sees all these things Jesus is telling about.
Nope, the verse before that he addresses those he’s speaking to directly. “ 33 Even so, when you see all these things, you know that it is near, right at the door. 34 Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened.”
The entire chapter is about the destruction of the temple and the end times. He’s telling those with him right then that they will see it, and they do. The temple was destroyed in that generation.
NO body knows the Day or Hour, KNOW BODY.....Just Predictions.

Watch == be joyful and productively active
Watch =/= be anxious, fearful and nonproductively idle.
Hide your talents He's given you or joyfully use them without fear?
