Matthew 24:1-14

1As Jesus left and was going out of the temple, his disciples came up and called his attention to its buildings.

2He replied to them, “Do you see all these things? Truly I tell you, not one stone will be left here on another that will not be thrown down.”

3While he was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples approached him privately and said, “Tell us, when will these things happen? And what is the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”

4Jesus replied to them, “Watch out that no one deceives you.

5For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Messiah,’ and they will deceive many.

6You are going to hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, because these things must take place, but the end is not yet.

7For nation will rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

8All these events are the beginning of labor pains.

9“Then they will hand you over to be persecuted, and they will kill you. You will be hated by all nations because of my name.

10Then many will fall away, betray one another, and hate one another.

11Many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.

12Because lawlessness will multiply, the love of many will grow cold.

13But the one who endures to the end will be saved.

14This good news of the kingdom will be proclaimed in all the world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
