28 Now, my children, stay with Christ. Then we will not be afraid on that day when we see him again. We will not be ashamed to stand before him when he comes again.
23 Greet all the brothers with a kiss that is holy.
11 Gods loving kindness has come. It is through that blessing that all men are saved.
12 It teaches us to say no to the things that are not true of God, and to the things of this world. It teaches us to use good sense, to do what is right, and to please God while we live in this world.
13 All this is while we wait and hope to see the one who brings blessing. We are waiting for our great God to come in Jesus Christ. He is the One who will save us. He is wonderful!
14 Christ gave himself for us so that he might make us free from all that is wrong. He gave himself to make us into clean people who belong to him and want to do good.
44 So, be ready! The Son of Man will come at a time when you are not looking for him.
14 This good news about the kingdom will be told in all the world. The people in all countries must know about it. And then the end will come.
7 It is almost the time when the world will end. So be wise and watch and talk to God.
23 If anyone says to you then, "Look, here is the Christ!" or "There he is!" do not believe it.
24 People will come and say they are the Christ. People will come and say they are prophets. But they are not true. They will show big signs and do wonderful things to fool people. They will fool Gods chosen people if they can.
25 Watch! I have told you these things before they happen.
21 The trouble then will be bigger than any other trouble since God made the world. And there never will be any trouble as big as that.
22 No person would be saved if the Lord did not cut the time of trouble shorter. He will cut it shorter for the sake of his chosen people.
20 He who shows these things says, Yes, I will come soon. Amen, Lord Jesus, come!
20 He who shows these things says, Yes, I will come soon. Amen, Lord Jesus, come!
1 Jesus said, Do not let anything trouble your heart. You believe in God and you must believe in me also.
2 In my Fathers house are many rooms. If it were not so, I would have told you. I am going to make a place ready for you.
3 If I go to make a place ready for you, I will come again. I will come to take you so that you may be with me.
34 But take care. Do not think too much about eating, drinking, and things in this life. If you do, that day will come and catch you like a trap.
35 That day will come to all people who are living on the whole earth.
36 Watch all the time. Ask God to make you strong to do right so that you will not go through all these things that are going to happen. Ask him to make you able to stand in front of the Son of Man.
29 Right after that time of trouble, the sun will be dark. The moon will not shine. The stars will fall from the sky. And the powers in the sky will be shaken.
30 Then people will see the sign of the Son of Man in the sky. Then all the people of the earth will cry. They will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds in the sky. He will have much power and will be very great.
31 He will send his angels to call with a loud trumpet or horn. They will gather his chosen people from everywhere all over the earth.
12 People will do more and more wrong things and many people will stop loving me.
13 But the person who keeps on being true to me until the end, that one will be saved.
16 Then we who are still alive on earth will be caught up together with those who were dead. We will be caught up in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And then we will be with the Lord forever!
17 Therefore, comfort one another with these words.

6 You will hear about wars. You will hear that war is coming. But do not fear. These things must happen, but that is not yet the end.
28 So Christ gave himself as a sacrifice only once. He took on himself the wrong things many people have done. He will come a second time. But he will not come to do anything about the wrong things people have done. He will come to save those who are looking and waiting for him.
