Matthew 24:1-8

Jesus Foretells Destruction of the Temple

1 aJesus left the temple and was going away, when his disciples came to point out to him the buildings of the temple. 2But he answered them, “You see all these, do you not? Truly, I say to you, bthere will not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down.”

Signs of the End of the Age

3As he sat on cthe Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him dprivately, saying, “Tell us, ewhen will these things be, and what will be the sign of your fcoming and of gthe end of the age?” 4And Jesus answered them, hSee that no one leads you astray. 5For imany will come in my name, saying, ‘I am jthe Christ,’ and they will lead many astray. 6And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you kare not alarmed, for this lmust take place, but the end is not yet. 7For mnation will rise against nation, and nkingdom against kingdom, and there will be ofamines and earthquakes in various places. 8All these are but the beginning of pthe birth pains.
