4
Jesus answered: "Watch out that no one deceives you.15For many will come in my name, claiming, 'I am the Christ,a ' and will deceive many.26You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come.7Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.3 There will be famines4 and earthquakes in various places.8All these are the beginning of birth pains.9"Then you will be handed over to be persecuted5 and put to death,6 and you will be hated by all nations because of me.710At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other,11and many false prophets8 will appear and deceive many people.912Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold,13but he who stands firm to the end will be saved.1014And this gospel of the kingdom11 will be preached in the whole world12 as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
