The Signs of the Times and the End of the Age^(A)

³ Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives, ^(B)the disciples came to Him privately, saying, ^(C)“Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of the end of the age?”

The Signs of the Times and the End of the Age^(A)

³ Now as He sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, ^(B)Peter, ^(C)James, ^(D)John, and ^(E)Andrew asked Him privately, ^4 (F)“Tell us, when will these things be? And what will be the sign when all these things will be fulfilled?”

⁷ And He said to them, ^(A)“It is not for you to ^(B)know times or seasons which the Father has put in His own authority.

³⁷ But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

The Day of the Lord

5 But concerning ^(A)the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I should write to you. ² For you yourselves know perfectly that ^(B)the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. ³ For when they say, “Peace and safety!” then ^(C)sudden destruction comes upon them, ^(D)as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape. ^4 (E)But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. ⁵ You are all ^(F)sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. ^6 (G)Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but ^(H)let us watch and be ^[a]sober. ⁷ For ^(I)those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk ^(J)are drunk at night. ⁸ But let us who are of the day be sober, ^(K)putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation. ⁹ For ^(L)God did not appoint us to wrath, ^(M)but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, ^10 (N)who died for us, that whether we wake or sleep, we should live together with Him.

¹¹ Therefore ^[b]comfort each other and ^[c]edify one another, just as you also are doing.
