MARK 13:2

And as he sat upon the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,

MARK 13:3

Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when all these things shall be fulfilled?

MARK 13:4

And Jesus answering them began to say, Take heed lest any man deceive you:

MARK 13:5

For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

MARK 13:6

And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet.

For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.

But take heed to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues ye shall be beaten: and ye shall be brought before rulers and kings for my sake, for a testimony against them.

MARK 13:9

And the gospel must first be published among all nations.

MARK 13:13

But when ye shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him that readeth understand,) then let them that be in Judaea flee to the mountains:

MARK 13:14

And let him that is on the housetop not go down into the house, neither enter therein, to take any thing out of his house:

MARK 13:15

And let him that is in the field not turn back again for to take up his garment.

MARK 13:16

But woe to them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

MARK 13:17

And pray ye that your flight be not in the winter.

MARK 13:18

For in those days shall be affliction, such as was not from the beginning of the creation which God created unto this time, neither shall be.

MARK 13:20

And then if any man shall say to you, Lo, here is Christ; or, lo, he is there; believe him not:

MARK 13:22

But take ye heed: behold, I have foretold you all things.

So ye in like manner, when ye shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors.

MARK 13:29

Verily I say unto you, that this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done.

MARK 13:30

Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.

But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father.

MARK 13:32

Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

MARK 13:33

For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.

MARK 13:34

Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning:

Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.

And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

IMPORTANT: All Scripture text has context and background. Scripture should never be read literally or in isolation. Always seek clarification from religious scholars and teachers. In general, Scripture adheres to four principles: (1) Literal Meaning - What the Scripture says (2) Historical Setting - The story events; how the Scripture was understood in its time (3) Grammar - The surrounding sentence and paragraph; textual context (4) Synthesis - A comparison with similar Scripture to give a better contextual understanding
