I've never gone into it as deeply as I've done lately. It's really interesting. Can't say I have it all figured out though. ;) The lesson that jumped out at me was one of readiness (Luke 12:35-46). I wonder how many times when we sin if we think in the back of our minds that it's really not likely that the Lord will return soon. We don't know when it will be, but it could be anytime. So we need to be ready and watching at all times. Don't think that we can correct/improve/change things later. That lesson is also there with the rich fool (Luke 12:16-20).
