Matthew 24:11-24

11Many 1false prophets will arise and will mislead many. 12Because lawlessness is increased, 2most people’s love will grow cold. 133But the one who endures to the end, he will be saved. 14This 4gospel of the kingdom 5shall be preached in the whole 67world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.

15“Therefore when you see the 8abomination of desolation which was spoken of through Daniel the prophet, standing in 9the holy place (10let the reader understand), 16then those who are in Judea must flee to the mountains. 1711Whoever is on 12the housetop must not go down to get the things out that are in his house. 1813Whoever is in the field must not turn back to get his cloak. 19But 14woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! 20But pray that your flight will not be in the winter, or on a Sabbath. 21For then there will be a 15great tribulation, such as has not occurred since the beginning of the world until now, nor ever will. 22Unless those days had been cut short, no 16life would have been saved; but for 17the sake of the 18elect those days will be cut short. 2319Then if anyone says to you, ‘Behold, here is the 20Christ,’ or ‘21There He is,’ do not believe him. 24For false Christs and 22false prophets will arise and will 23show great 2425signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if possible, even 26the 27elect.
