Luke 21:5-11

Some people were talking about the Temple and how it was decorated with beautiful stones and gifts offered to God. But Jesus said, “As for these things you are looking at, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another. Every stone will be thrown down.” They asked Jesus, “Teacher, when will these things happen? What will be the sign that they are about to take place?” Jesus said, “Be careful so you are not fooled. Many people will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the One’ and, ‘The time has come!’ But don’t follow them. When you hear about wars and riots, don’t be afraid, because these things must happen first, but the end will come later.” Then he said to them, “Nations will fight against other nations, and kingdoms against other kingdoms. In various places there will be great earthquakes, sicknesses, and a lack of food. Fearful events and great signs will come from heaven.
