Context of Luke 21:33
31In the same way, you will see these strange things happening. Then you will know that God will soon begin to rule in his kingdom. 32I tell you this: The people who are alive now will not all die until all these things happen. One day, the earth and the sky will have an end. But my words will be there for ever. 34But be careful, and watch how you live. Do not eat or drink too much. Do not waste your time like that. Do not waste time by having troubles in your mind about your life. If you do, that day will surprise you. It will come when you are not looking. 35It will surprise everyone who lives on all the earth.
