Matthew 24:11-21

11 Many false prophets will come and cause many people to believe lies.
12 There will be more and more evil in the world, so most people will stop showing their love for each other.
13 But those people who keep their faith until the end will be saved.
14 The Good News about God's kingdom will be preached in all the world, to every nation. Then the end will come.
15 "Daniel the prophet spoke about 'the destroying terror.' You will see this standing in the holy place." (You who read this should understand what it means.)
16 "At that time, the people in Judea should run away to the mountains.
17 If people are on the roofsn of their houses, they must not go down to get anything out of their houses.
18 If people are in the fields, they must not go back to get their coats.
19 At that time, how terrible it will be for women who are pregnant or have nursing babies!
20 Pray that it will not be winter or a Sabbath day when these things happen and you have to run away,
21 because at that time there will be much trouble. There will be more trouble than there has ever been since the beginning of the world until now, and nothing as bad will ever happen again.
