In what ways can we be watching the coming of the Son of Man?
Like Jesus said, no one will know the hour, so we got to be on alert all the time. Waiting for the return of the son of Man means that one has to accept him first, because, you cannot wait for someone you don`t know and stick on it. Once you take that decision, then one has to keep and live with it through life. Hold un to Him, forever, simple!

Praying God in faith. Following God`s commandments and invite Holy Spirit to control my life. Going to others to tell God`s grace. Expecting God to use me.

In what ways can we be watching for the coming of the Son of Man?
Hello dear friends, I think for now we can follow God`s commandments of loving him with all our hearts, mind and spirit and loving one another as we love our selves.Most of all we need to give achance to the holy spirit to lead us whenever we go and do actually and whatever we say b`se when having the holyspirit in place, Jesus is available and there by living achristian life.Christianity is Journey and every christian should no this sometimes you find hills and valleys which may seem to be great obstacles but remember the holyspirit is with us to guide us in our christian life just call on to the Lord and each time and he will be there for you when you are walking in his ways.

Continue to pray and worship God at all times. Obey the commandments. Walk in the spiirt and in love and God will recognize us and we want be left behind. Stay away from the power of Satan and don`t let no one lead you astray.

By remaining holy and pure all the time. By repenting of any known sins. By avoiding sinful living. By remaining in fellowship with other members of the church of Christ. By obeying, and leaning on the word of the scriptures. By being constantly led, and filled with the holy spirit. By loving God and one another. By not backsliding into civilian pursuits - reckless living. By waiting upon the lord in constant prayers.

Is by worshiping and praying always so that we should not fall into temptation, by keeping the commandment of our Lord Jesus Christ at all time, study our bible always, be obedient to his word. let there be no arguement while study the word of God, we should be content with what we have, we should always be in the spirit rather than be in the flesh, we should not lust after the things of this world, we should be sober!

In what ways can we be watching for the coming of the Son of Man?
By following His example and being as loving as we can possibly be while we continue to study and pray and work for Jesus, constantly being alert for Satan`s deceptive power. The more we love God, the more Satan tries to interfere in our lives and make us succumb to sins of the flesh. We must be ever vigilant against the powers of darkness as we grow in spirituality because we grow more valuable to Satan then.

1''-The only way is to KEEP WATCH? without getting wearies, that is to continueing in our faith, and pentiently waiting for Him.-2- is to evangelise by so doing Jesus may meet you in this mood and your name become Heavenly-Land lord. For the bible said if you have faith without work is useless.

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.
