Matthew 24:8

8 But all these things are just the beginning of the sufferings associated with the end.

Matthew 24:8 In-Context

6 You will hear about wars and reports of wars. Don't be alarmed. These things must happen, but this isn't the end yet.
7 Nations and kingdoms will fight against each other, and there will be famines and earthquakes in all sorts of places.
8 But all these things are just the beginning of the sufferings associated with the end.
9 They will arrest you, abuse you, and they will kill you. All nations will hate you on account of my name.
10 At that time many will fall away. They will betray each other and hate each other.
