Are You Ready for the Return of Jesus? | Matthew 25 | Pastor Dillon Neely

What does it mean to truly be ready for the return of Jesus Christ? In this powerful and challenging message from Matthew 25, Pastor Dillon Neely continues our sermon series, "Matthew: Return of the King," with the parable of the ten virgins.

Jesus teaches us the importance of being spiritually prepared, staying faithful, and living with an eternal perspective as we await His return. Through the story of the wise and foolish virgins, we are reminded that outward religious activity is not the same as a genuine relationship with Jesus Christ. True readiness comes through saving faith in Jesus and the transforming presence of the Holy Spirit.

In this message, we are challenged to examine our hearts, stop wasting our lives on temporary things, and faithfully use the time, relationships, and resources God has entrusted to us for His Kingdom.

Jesus is coming back. The question is: Are you ready?

In this message, Pastor Dillon Neely continues our sermon series, "Book of Matthew: Return of the King," as we walk verse by verse through Matthew 24 and explore what Jesus teaches about His second coming, the end times, and how we should live in light of His return.

In Matthew 24:29–51, Jesus describes the signs surrounding His return, the gathering of His people, and the importance of staying awake and being ready. While no one knows the day or hour of Christ's return, Scripture calls us to live with urgency, faithfulness, and eternal perspective.

The challenge is simple: Don't waste your life. Live ready for the King.
