Matthew 24:23

← Matthew 24:22 [words of Jesus]	Matthew 24:23 (KJV) [words of Jesus]	Matthew 24:24 [words of Jesus] →
And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.	Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here [is] Christ, or there; believe [it] not.	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.
