Mark 13:9-13

The Voice

⁹ Be careful, because you will be delivered to trial and beaten in the places of worship. Kings and governors will stand in judgment over you as you speak in My name. ¹⁰ The good news of the coming kingdom of God must be delivered first in every land and every language. ¹¹ When people bring you up on charges and it is your time to defend yourself, don’t worry about what message you’ll deliver. Whatever comes to your mind, speak it, because the Holy Spirit will inspire it.

¹² But it will get worse. Brothers will betray each other to death, and fathers will betray their children. Children will turn against their parents and cause them to be executed. ¹³ Everyone will hate you because of your allegiance to Me. But if you’re faithful until the end, you will be rescued.
