Matthew 24:13-25

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

14And the Good News about the Kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world, so that all nations will hear it; and then the end will come.

15“The day is coming when you will see what Daniel the prophet spoke about—the sacrilegious object that causes desecration standing in the Holy Place.” (Reader, pay attention!)

16“Then those in Judea must flee to the hills.

17A person out on the deck of a roof must not go down into the house to pack.

18A person out in the field must not return even to get a coat.

19How terrible it will be for pregnant women and for nursing mothers in those days.

20And pray that your flight will not be in winter or on the Sabbath.

21For there will be greater anguish than at any time since the world began. And it will never be so great again.

22In fact, unless that time of calamity is shortened, not a single person will survive. But it will be shortened for the sake of God’s chosen ones.

23“Then if anyone tells you, ‘Look, here is the Messiah,’ or ‘There he is,’ don’t believe it.

24For false messiahs and false prophets will rise up and perform great signs and wonders so as to deceive, if possible, even God’s chosen ones.

25See, I have warned you about this ahead of time.
