The End of the World

No one knows about that day or hour, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

While Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to Him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will these things happen, and what will be the sign of Your coming and of the end of the age?”

And this gospel of the kingdom will be preached in all the world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.

So keep watch at all times, and pray that you may have the strength to escape all that is about to happen and to stand before the Son of Man.”

But the one who perseveres to the end will be saved.

But the Day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar, the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and its works will be laid bare.

For at that time there will be great tribulation, unseen from the beginning of the world until now, and never to be seen again.

If those days had not been cut short, nobody would be saved. But for the sake of the elect, those days will be cut short.

And the great dragon was hurled down—that ancient serpent called the devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world. He was hurled to the earth, and his angels with him.

Most importantly, you must understand that in the last days scoffers will come, scoffing and following their own evil desires.

“Where is the promise of His coming?” they will ask. “Ever since our fathers fell asleep, everything continues as it has from the beginning of creation.”

We know that we are of God, and that the whole world is under the power of the evil one.
