Matthew 24:1-25

Matthew 24:1-25 CPDV

And Jesus departed from the temple and went away. And his disciples approached him, so as to show him the buildings of the temple. But he said to them in response: "Do you see all these things? Amen I say to you, there shall not remain here stone upon stone, which is not torn down." Then, when he was seated at the Mount of Olives, the disciples drew near to him privately, saying: "Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of your advent and of the consummation of the age?" And answering, Jesus said to them: "Pay attention, lest someone lead you astray. For many will come in my name saying, 'I am the Christ.' And they will lead many astray. For you will hear of battles and rumors of battles. Take care not to be disturbed. For these things must be, but the end is not so soon. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be pestilences, and famines, and earthquakes in places. But all these things are just the beginning of the sorrows. Then they will hand you over to tribulation, and they will kill you. And you will be hated by all nations for the sake of my name. And then many will be led into sin, and will betray one another, and will have hatred for one another. And many false prophets will arise, and they will lead many astray. And because iniquity has abounded, the charity of many will grow cold. But whoever will have persevered until the end, the same shall be saved. And this Gospel of the kingdom shall be preached throughout the entire world, as a testimony to all nations. And then the consummation will occur. Therefore, when you will have seen the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by the prophet Daniel, standing in the holy place, may he who reads understand, then those who are in Judea, let them flee to the mountains. And whoever is on the roof, let him not descend to take anything from his house. And whoever is in the field, let him not turn back to take his tunic. So then, woe to those who are pregnant or nursing in those days. But pray that your flight may not be in winter, or on the Sabbath. For then there will be a great tribulation, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until the present, and such as will not be. And unless those days had been shortened, no flesh would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days shall be shortened. Then if anyone will have said to you, 'Behold, here is the Christ,' or 'he is there,' do not be willing to believe it. For there will arise false Christs and false prophets. And they will produce great signs and wonders, so much so as to lead into error even the elect (if this could be). Behold, I have warned you beforehand.
