(Mat 24:4-14) And Jesus answered and said to them: "Take
heed that no one deceives you. {5} "For
many will come in My name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will deceive
many. {6} "And you will hear of wars
and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for all these things
must come to pass, but the end is not yet. {7} "For
nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And
there will be famines,
pestilences, and earthquakes
in various places. {8} "All these
are the beginning of sorrows. {9} "Then
they will deliver you up to tribulation and
kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name's sake.
{10} "And then many will be offended, will
betray one another, and will hate one another. {11} "Then
many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. {12} "And
because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow cold.
{13} "But he who endures to the end shall be
saved. {14} "And this
gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a witness
to all the nations, and then the end will come. The
