This sermon delivered near the end of the Coptic year, focuses on the themes of the end of life and the second coming of Jesus Christ, drawing from the Gospel of Mark 13:3-37 to remind congregants of their spiritual urgency. The preacher emphasizes the shocking reality that the second coming is personal and imminent, equating it with the moment an individual departs this world, thus sealing their eternal destiny. The message warns against procrastination in repentance, highlighting that on that final day, humanity will be divided into two groups: those who mourn and fear, and those whose redemption draws near, where God will comfort them by wiping away "every tear" and rewarding every secret act of service performed during life. The sermon concludes by prompting listeners to examine their current feelings about the gospel, as their reaction—whether trouble or comfort—reveals which of the two groups they are currently aligned with.
