In what ways can we be watching for the coming of the Son of Man?
By confessing our sins daily, so that we do not continue offending God, we can be watching for His coming.By obeying his commandment to love our neighbours as ourselves and above all to love god with all our heart, with all our soul and with all our might. we demonstrate our love for God by reading and doing''Obeying ''his word. We can also do this by separating ourselves from too much worldly concerns, especially wild living and loving the affairs of this world too much.

I think we have to be ready all the time. Because no body knows when Jesus will come again except GOD. We need to be fill with HOLY SPIRIT all the time otherwise we will be like 5 virgins without Oil.

I personally don`t think that we should be watching as such - I believe we should be ready and waiting - spritually and emotionally.

We need to be reading for the Son of Man for we know not the hour or day which He will arrive. A dear friend once told me you need to be prayed up for the time of the coming of the Lord.

We have to be ready at all times to meet Jeasus face to face. Hence we need to cleanse ourselves from our sins by repenting, sseking forgiveness and forfiving others and by being a faithful servant of God.The exact hour is not known to any man except God the Father.So we have to be ready always.

There are no way of knowing when Jesus is coming, but all we can say is he is coming real soon. So people in this world today if they aren`t close to God they need to be, because the time is coming for them to go to their heavenly home.

The Parable of the Ten Virgins

"Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps. Now while the bridegroom delayed, they all slumbered and slept. But at midnight there was a cry, 'Behold! The bridegroom is coming! Come out to meet him!' Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps. The foolish said to the wise, 'Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.' But the wise answered, saying, 'What if there isn't enough for us and you? You go rather to those who sell, and buy for yourselves.' While they went away to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut. Afterward the other virgins also came, saying, 'Lord, Lord, open to us.' But he answered, 'Most certainly I tell you, I don't know you.' Watch therefore, for you don't know the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
