Signs of the Beginning of Sorrows

4

Jesus answered, “See to it that no one deceives you.

5

For many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am the Christ,’ and will deceive many.

6

You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come.

7

Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places.

8

All these are the beginning of birth pains.

9

Then they will deliver you over to be persecuted and killed, and you will be hated by all nations because of My name.

10

At that time many will fall away and will betray and hate one another,

11

and many false prophets will arise and mislead many.

12

Because of the multiplication of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold.

13

But the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

14

And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
