       John makes a break here with a quote from the Lord Jesus Christ. Much like between the sixth and seventh Seal and Trumpet Judgments, here again we find a break from the judgments with a word from our Lord to encourage believers who are still on the earth at this point in time. In essence, he is telling them to be prepared for his Second Coming. Jesus talked about the time right before his second return to the earth and how people on the earth at that time should make sure they are prepared. If we go back to Matthew 24, we can see this in the following verses: “Then two men will be in the field; one will be taken and one left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken and one left. Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into. Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect” (40-44, ESV).
