Last Night of the World 2

Here are three little extracts from that C. S. Lewis essay (Last Night of the World):

"Jesus' teaching on his second coming consists of 3 propositions:

1. That he will certainly return.

2. That we cannot possibly find out when.

3. And that therefore we must always be ready for him.

The practical conclusion:

Watch, watch, is the burden of his advice.

What is important is not that we should always fear (or hope) about the End but that we should always remember, always take it into account."
