Luke 17:20-25
Asked by the Pharisees when the Kingdom of God would come, Jesus said in reply, “The coming of the Kingdom of God cannot be observed, and no one will announce, ‘Look, here it is,’ or, ‘There it is.’ For behold, the Kingdom of God is among you.”
Then he said to his disciples,
“The days will come when you will long to see
one of the days of the Son of Man, but you will not see it. There will be those who will say to you, ‘Look, there he is,’ or ‘Look, here he is.’
Do not go off, do not run in pursuit. For just as lightning flashes and lights up the sky from one side to the other, so will the Son of Man be in his day. But first he must suffer greatly and be rejected by this generation.”

Ang Pagdating ng Paghahari ng Diyos
Lucas 17:20-25
Ang mga Fariseo ay nagtanong sa kaniya kung kailan darating ang paghahari ng Diyos. Sinagot niya sila at sinabi: Ang paghahari ng Diyos ay darating na hindi mamamasdan. Ito ay darating na hindi nila masasabi: Tingnan ninyo rito! Tingnan ninyo roon! Ito ay sapagkat ang paghahari ng Diyos ay nasa kalagitnaan ninyo.
Sinabi ni Jesus sa mga alagad: Darating ang mga araw na kayo ay maghahangad na makita ang isa sa mga araw ng Anak ng Tao at hindi ninyo ito makikita. Kung sasabihin nila sa inyo: Tingnan ninyo rito! Tingnan ninyo roon! Huwag kayong pumunta o sumunod. Lucas 17:20-25

Ito ay sapagkat kung papaano nagliliwanag ang kidlat, magiging gayon ang Anak ng Tao. Sa pagkislap ng kidlat, ito ay nagliliwanag mula sa isang dulo sa ilalim ng langit hanggang sa isang dulo sa ilalim ng langit. Ngunit bago ito, kailangan muna niyang magbata ng maraming bagay at tanggihan ng lahing ito.
