Matthew 24:38 Context
35Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away. 36But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only. 37But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 40Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. 41Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

Wesley's Notes for Matthew 24:38
24:36 But of that day - The day of judgment; Knoweth no man - Not while our Lord was on earth. Yet it might be afterward revealed to St. John consistently with this.
24:37 #Luke 17:26|.
24:40 One is taken - Into God's immediate protection: and one is left - To share the common calamities. Our Lord speaks as having the whole transaction present before his eyes.
They say , but do not follow Christ and have no fruit , that's how we will notice the difference. Lip service sounds good , but is only deception . Jesus will reward us for our works , not our beliefs. Be a doer not a hearer only ! But get His spirits leading or it will not work or last .
Forgive me Lord for taking everything for granted sometimes. You are good and gracious and loving.
When Seth was born, the genealogy restarted again. His was the seed that Jesus would be born through.
All genealogy follows the bloodline of Jesus.
Mary and Joseph were remote cousins from the bloodline of King David.
Daughters were only included in the genealogy of the bloodline of Jesus if they were in that line.
What does all this mean to us? God keeps record of all humans and children conceived to them. We're on His radar so-to-speak.
John 14:16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you ANOTHER Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
John 16:7 Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.
Because the serpent was talking to Eve , what does the scripture mean when it says , Adam was with her when she gave him the fruit?

When did Jesus say the dead in Christ would be resurrected?
John 6:39-40: Jesus said, "This is the will of Him who sent Me, that of all that He has given Me I lose nothing, but raise it up ON THE LAST DAY.
John 6:44: Jesus said, "No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up ON THE LAST DAY."
Is the LAST DAY the thousand year reign of Christ?
I believe so....then it is eternity and time is counted no more
So if Jesus himself said the dead in Christ will be raised on the LAST DAY, and Paul said we who are alive and remain will not be caught up (raptured) until AFTER the dead are raised, then where does secret pre-trib rapture fit in?
Paul in 1 Corinthians 15:52 - In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
We are changed at the LAST TRUMP and where is this found?
In REVELATION, the LAST BOOK of the Bible there are 7 trumps and the 7th trump is the LAST ONE and is at the end of the tribulation. there is not a 7th last trump prior to the tribulation.
