Matthew 24:3-14

3And as He was sitting on 1the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, “Tell us, when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of 2Your coming, and of the 3end of the age?”

4And Jesus answered and said to them, “4See to it that no one 5misleads you. 5For 6many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am the 7Christ,’ and they will 8mislead many people. 6And you will be hearing of 9wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not alarmed, for those things must take place, but that is not yet the end. 7For 10nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be 11famines and earthquakes in various places. 812But all these things are merely the beginning of birth pains.

9“13Then they will hand you over to tribulation and kill you, and 14you will be hated by all nations because of My name. 10And at that time many will 1516fall away, and they will 17betray one another and hate one another. 11And many 18false prophets will rise up and 19mislead many people. 12And because lawlessness is increased, 20most people’s love will become cold. 1321But the one who endures to the end is the one who will be saved. 14This 22gospel of the kingdom 23shall be preached in the whole 2425world as a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come.
