JESUS Gives Us the SIGNS of the END Times

 

Matthew 24:3

King James Version

3 And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, 

the disciples came unto him privately, 

saying, 

Tell us, 

when shall these things be? 

and what shall be the sign of thy coming, 

and of the end of the world?


This is how JESUS answered:

4 And Jesus answered and said unto them, 

Take heed that no man deceive you.

5 For many shall come in my name, 

saying, 

I am Christ; 

and shall deceive many.

6 And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: 

see that ye be not troubled: 

for all these things must come to pass, 

but the end is not yet.

7 For nation shall rise against nation, 

and kingdom against kingdom

and there shall be famines, and pestilences, 

and earthquakes, in divers places.

8 All these are the beginning of sorrows.

9 Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, 

and shall kill you: 

and ye shall be hated of all nations 

for my name's sake.

10 And then shall many be offended, 

and shall betray one another, 

and shall hate one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise, 

and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, 

the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, 

the same shall be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom 

shall be preached in all the world 

for a witness unto all nations; 

and then shall the end come.

Matthew 24:4-14 (King James Version)


15 When ye therefore shall see 

the abomination of desolation, 

spoken of by Daniel the prophet, 

stand in the holy place, 

(whoso readeth, let him understand:)

16 Then let them which be in Judaea 

flee into the mountains:

17 Let him which is on the housetop 

not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18 Neither let him which is in the field 

return back to take his clothes.

19 And woe unto them that are with child, 

and to them that give suck in those days!

20 But pray ye that your flight 

be not in the winter, 

neither on the sabbath day:

21 For then shall be great tribulation, 

such as was not since the beginning of the world 

to this time, no, 

nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened, 

there should no flesh be saved

but for the elect's sake 

those days shall be shortened.

Matthew 24:15-22 

King James Version


23 Then if any man shall say unto you, 

Lo, here is Christ, 

or there; 

believe it not.

24 For there shall arise false Christs, 

and false prophets

and shall shew great signs and wonders; 

insomuch that, if it were possible, 

they shall deceive the very elect.

25 Behold, I have told you before.

26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, 

Behold, he is in the desert; 

go not forth

behold, he is in the secret chambers; 

believe it not.

Matthew 24:23-26 

King James Version


27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, 

and shineth even unto the west; 

so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Matthew 24:27 

King James Version


28 For wheresoever the carcase is, 

there will the eagles be gathered together.

Matthew 24:28 

King James Version


29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days 

shall the sun be darkened, 

and the moon shall not give her light, 

and the stars shall fall from heaven, 

and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear 

the sign of the Son of man in heaven

and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, 

and they shall see the Son of man 

coming in the clouds of heaven 

with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels 

with a great sound of a trumpet, 

and they shall gather together 

his elect from the four winds

from one end of heaven to the other.

Matthew 24:29-31 

King James Version


32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree

When his branch is yet tender, 

and putteth forth leaves, 

ye know that summer is nigh:

33 So likewise ye, 

when ye shall see all these things, 

know that it is near, 

even at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, 

This generation shall not pass, 

till all these things be fulfilled.

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, 

but my words shall not pass away.

Matthew 24:32-35 

King James Version


36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, 

no, not the angels of heaven, 

but my Father only.

37 But as the days of Noah were, 

so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

38 For as in the days that were before the flood 

they were eating and drinking, 

marrying and giving in marriage, 

until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, 

and took them all away; 

so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

Matthew 24:36-39 

King James Version


40 Then shall two be in the field; 

the one shall be taken, 

and the other left.

41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; 

the one shall be taken, 

and the other left.

42 Watch therefore: 

for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

Matthew 24:40-42 

King James Version


43 But know this, 

that if the goodman of the house 

had known in what watch the thief would come, 

he would have watched, 

and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

44 Therefore be ye also ready: 

for in such an hour as ye think not 

the Son of man cometh.

45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, 

whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, 

to give them meat in due season?

46 Blessed is that servant, 

whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

47 Verily I say unto you, 

That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

Matthew 24:43-47 

King James Version


48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, 

My lord delayeth his coming;

49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, 

and to eat and drink with the drunken;

50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day 

when he looketh not for him, 

and in an hour that he is not aware of,

51 And shall cut him asunder, 

and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: 

there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

Matthew 24:48-51 

King James Version
