Jesus Predicts the Destruction of the Temple
|
|
|
|
##### Chapter 24
|
|
###### 1 Then Jesus went out and departed from the temple, and His disciples came up to show Him the buildings of the temple.
|
|
###### 2 And Jesus said to them, **"Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you,** **not _one_ stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down."**The Signs of the Times and the End of the Age
|
|
|
|
###### 3 Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately, saying, "Tell us, when will these things be? And what _will be_ the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?"
|
|
|
|
###### 4 And Jesus answered and said to them: **"Take heed that no one deceives you.**
|
|
###### 5 **For** **many will come in My name, saying, 'I am the Christ,'** **and will deceive many.**
|
|
###### 6 **And you will hear of** **wars and rumors of wars. See that you are not troubled; for** **all _these things_ must come to pass, but the end is not yet.**
|
|
###### 7 **For** **nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be** **famines,** **pestilences, and earthquakes in various places.**
|
|
###### 8 **All these _are_ the beginning of sorrows.**
|
|
|
|
###### 9 **"Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and kill you, and you will be hated by all nations for My name's sake.**
|
|
###### 10 **And then many will be offended, will betray one another, and will hate one another.**
|
|
###### 11 **Then** **many false prophets will rise up and** **deceive many.**
|
|
###### 12 **And because lawlessness will abound, the love of many will grow** **cold.**
|
|
###### 13 **But he who endures to the end shall be saved.**
|
|
###### 14 **And this** **gospel of the kingdom** **will be preached in all the world as a witness to all the nations, and then the end will come.**The Great Tribulation
|
|
|
|
###### 15 **"Therefore when you see the** **'abomination of desolation,' spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place"** (whoever reads, let him understand),
|
|
###### 16 **"then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains.**
|
|
###### 17 **Let him who is on the housetop not go down to take anything out of his house.**
|
|
###### 18 **And let him who is in the field not go back to get his clothes.**
|
|
###### 19 **But** **woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days!**
|
|
###### 20 **And pray that your flight may not be in winter or on the Sabbath.**
|
|
###### 21 **For** **then there will be great tribulation, such as has not been since the beginning of the world until this time, no, nor ever shall be.**
|
|
###### 22 **And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved;** **but for the** **elect's sake those days will be shortened.**
|
|
|
|
###### 23 **"Then if anyone says to you, 'Look, here _is_ the Christ!' or 'There!' do not believe _it._**
|
|
###### 24 **For** **false christs and false prophets will rise and show great signs and wonders to deceive,** **if possible, even the elect.**
|
|
###### 25 **See, I have told you beforehand.**
|
|
|
|
###### 26 **"Therefore if they say to you, 'Look, He is in the desert!' do not go out; _or_ 'Look, _He is_ in the inner rooms!' do not believe _it._**
|
|
###### 27 **For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes to the west, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.**
|
|
###### 28 **For wherever the carcass is, there the eagles will be gathered together.**The Coming of the Son of Man
|
|
|
|
###### 29 **"Immediately after the tribulation of those days** **the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.**
|
|
###### 30 **Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven,** **and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.**
|
|
###### 31 **And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His** **elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.**The Parable of the Fig Tree
|
|
|
|
###### 32 **"Now learn** **this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer _is_ near.**
|
|
###### 33 **So you also, when you see all these things, know** **that** **it is near--at the doors!**
|
|
###### 34 **Assuredly, I say to you,** **this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place.**
|
|
###### 35 **Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.**No One Knows the Day or Hour
|
|
|
|
###### 36 **"But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of** **heaven,** **but My Father only.**
|
|
###### 37 **But as the days of Noah _were,_ so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.**
|
|
###### 38 **For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark,**
|
|
###### 39 **and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.**
|
|
###### 40 **Then two _men_ will be in the field: one will be taken and the other left.**
|
|
###### 41 **Two _women will be_ grinding at the mill: one will be taken and the other left.**
|
|
###### 42 **Watch therefore, for you do not know what** **hour your Lord is coming.**
|
|
###### 43 **But know this, that if the master of the house had known what** **hour the thief would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into.**
|
|
###### 44 **Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect.**The Faithful Servant and the Evil Servant
|
|
|
|
###### 45 **"Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his master made ruler over his household, to give them food** **in due season?**
|
|
###### 46 **Blessed _is_ that servant whom his master, when he comes, will find so doing.**
|
|
###### 47 **Assuredly, I say to you that** **he will make him ruler over all his goods.**
|
|
###### 48 **But if that evil servant says in his heart, 'My master** **is delaying** **his coming,'**
|
|
###### 49 **and begins to beat _his_ fellow servants, and to eat and drink with the drunkards,**
|
|
###### 50 **the master of that servant will come on a day when he is not looking for _him_ and at an hour that he is** **not aware of,**
|
|
###### 51 **and will cut him in two and appoint _him_ his portion with the hypocrites.** **There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.**
