In reading Mark 13 several versus stand out in telling us to “heed” and “Watch”. Just to clarify to heed means to give careful attention to. Some of the things that we are told to heed or watch concerning the second coming they are as follows:
Take heed lest any man deceive you (vs. 5)
Take heed to yourselves… (vs. 9)
Take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things. (vs. 23)
Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. (vs. 33)
Watch ye therefore for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning” (vs. 35)
And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch. (vs.37)
There are other scriptures that talk about the Lord’s second coming including D&C 87:8 which says to “stand ye in holy places, and be not moved, until the day of the Lord come:” I think this is pertinent in letting us know how to prepare for the second coming.
