I already explained that Sabbath and winter are for everybody but the verse says ”YOUR flight” so axiomatically symbolic. You can do whatever you like pray or not pray but God's word tell us that we need to supplicate God.

But the timing can not be anticipated.
Hi Van
Daniel 9 predicted the timing when Messiah would come in the first century. The 7x prophecy predicted 1914. Revelation explains the horses of the apocalypse and the birth of the kingdom and ousting of Satan and other parts of the Bible also explain events that occur during the Parousia connected the end of the Gentile times. But the proof of the Parousia to Christians is Math 24, etc: WWI, famine, preaching— which seems ordinary. Trying to keep it brief.
And when it does occur no one will be wondering if it happened or not.
You trashed again what Jesus said about Noah’s days:
Where is this promised Parousia of his? Why, from the day our forefathers fell asleep in death, all things are continuing exactly as they were from creation’s beginning.”
This applies to ridiculers who refuse to see and will be shown when Jesus is revealed.

“all the time making supplication”
This ties in with Jesus’s literary device to pray that your flight doesn’t occurr on the Sabbath, etc.

The point is that the people in Noah's day were carrying on as normal totally unaware of the coming deluge
They should have taken note that a deluge was coming. Noah was building an ark in plain sight
Don’t throw the rest of the Bible away again
In a time that you think not, the Son of Man will come.

The Parousia would take place in normal times, while unsuspecting people were having fun, not during a world War.
No. I already explained that it would seem like normal times to people who took no note. If actually normal times nothing to notice.
Note: The normal times have to do with God’s time table and fulfillment of Bible prophecy so wars and all the other signs seem unventful.

I believe Jesus encouraged them to pray for mitigating factors for their escape from Jerusalem's destruction.
“YOUR flight”
Individuals cannot count on blanket salvation for everybody.— “Woe to the pregnant women .” which is an allusion to the days of Noah taking no notice. So, prayer involves a relationship with God and being heard by him. So as I explained earlier Jesus was using a literary device to show that individuals needed God’s help. The verse says YOUR flight doesn’t occur on the Sabbath although the Sabbath is the same day for everybody else so the use of the word Sabbath is poetic as applied to the individual.

And your point is...?
The rest of the Bible (that you always ignore when focusing on a verse that seems to say what you like to believe.) describes the Paraousia like the days of Noah. People ignored Noah a preacher of righteousnes and his ark building. The parousia like the days of Noah includes more than the flood and more than the tribulation and the rock that hits people on the head. The axiomatic point is that the Parousia is similar to the days if Noah.
You fail to see that during the days of Noah SEEmed to be ordinary to people who took no note—but Noah knew that his days were not ordinary. The days of the Parousia are similar. So contradicting your beliefs, the Scriptures show that the Parousia includes a period of time when there was an Elephant in the room and nobody noticed until the gt hits them over the head and the tribes beat themselves in lamentation when they see miraculous proof.

If there was a sign for the parousia Jesus would have told his disciples.
Hi Van,
He did. “What will be the sign of your Parousia.” answer: preaching, etc.
But since there wasn't a sign he said, "at a time you think not the Son of Man cometh.
He was referring to “ that day and hour”( no one knows ) during the days of his Parousia and he explains by liking it to the the days of Noah to the days of the Son of Man—DAYS not day. Vis-à-vis on the DAY the son of man is REVEALED.

Parousia
Matthew 24:37-39 (nwt-E) — For just as the days of Noah were, so the Parousia of the Son of man will be. 38 For as they were in those days before the Flood, eating and drinking, men marrying and women being given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, 39 and they took no note until the Flood came and swept them all away, so the Parousia of the Son of man will be.
