| Riepilogo: | The author teaches his congregation how the style of the writer of the scriptures in Matthew rids them of the attitude of assuming things, complacency, and presumption. The Gospel reading, Matthew 24:36-44, for the first Advent Sunday on November 28, 2010 tells of God coming with power to judge mankind with no warning that not even the angels in heaven nor the Son knew the day and the hour. In an aggressive and confrontational way, Matthew speaks in extremes and finds an opposite in everything. The lesson is that taking things for granted is deadly. |
