Matthew 24:23-28

Holman Christian Standard Bible

²³ “If anyone tells you then, ‘Look, here is the Messiah!’^(A) or, ‘Over here!’ do not believe it!^{(B) 24} False messiahs^[a] and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders to lead astray,^(C) if possible, even the elect. ²⁵ Take note: I have told you in advance. ²⁶ So if they tell you, ‘Look, He’s in the wilderness!’ don’t go out; ‘Look, He’s in the inner rooms!’ do not believe it. ²⁷ For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man.^{(D) 28} Wherever the carcass is, there the vultures^[b] will gather.^(E)
