馬太福音 第廿四章
1耶穌出了聖殿,正走的時候,門徒進前來,把殿宇指給他看。
2耶穌對他們說:你們不是看見這殿宇麼﹖我實在告訴你們,將來在這裡沒有一塊石頭留在石頭上,不被拆毀了。
3耶穌在橄欖山上坐著,門徒暗暗的來說:請告訴我們,甚麼時候有這些事﹖你降臨和世界的末了有甚麼豫兆呢﹖
4耶穌回答說:你們要謹慎,免得有人迷惑你們。
5因為將來有好些人冒我的名來,說:我是基督,並且要迷惑許多人。
6你們也要聽見打仗和打仗的風聲,總不要驚慌;因為這些事是必須有的,只是末期還沒有到。
7民要攻打民 ,國要攻打國;多處必有饑荒、地震。
8這都是災難(災難:原文是生產之難)的起頭。
9那時,人要把你們陷在患難裡,也要殺害你們;你們又要為我的名被萬民恨惡。
10那時,必有許多人跌倒,也要彼此陷害,彼此恨惡;
11且有好些假先知起來,迷惑多人。
12只因不法的事增多,許多人的愛心纔漸漸冷淡了。
13惟有忍耐到底的,必然得救。
14這天國的福音要傳遍天下,對萬民作見證,然後末期纔來到。
15你們看見先知但以理所說的那行毀壞可憎的站在聖地(讀這經的人須要會意)。
16那時,在猶太的,應當逃到山上;
17在房上的,不要下來拿家裡的東西;
18在田裡的,也不要回去取衣裳。
19當那些日子,懷孕的和奶孩子的有禍了。
20你們應當祈求,叫你們逃走的時候,不遇見冬天或是安息日。
21因為那時必有大災難,從世界的起頭直到如今,沒有這樣的災難,後來也必沒有。
22若不減少那日子,凡有血氣的總沒有一個得救的;只是為選民,那日子必減少了。
23那時,若有人對你們說:基督在這裡,或說:基督在那裡,你們不要信!
24因為假基督、假先知將要起來,顯大神蹟、大奇事,倘若能行,連選民也就迷惑了。
25看哪,我豫先告訴你們了。
26若有人對你們說:看哪,基督在曠野裡,你們不要出去!或說:看哪,基督在內屋中,你們不要信!
27閃電從東邊發出,直照到西邊。人子降臨,也要這樣。
28屍首在那裡,鷹也必聚在那裡。
29那些日子的災難一過去,日頭 就變黑了,月亮也不放光,眾星要從天上墜落,天勢都要震動。
30那時,人子的兆頭 要顯在天上,地上的萬族都要哀哭。他們要看見人子,有能力,有大榮耀,駕著天上的雲降臨。
31他要差遣使者,用號筒的大聲,將他的選民,從四方(方:原文是風 ),從天這邊到天那邊,都招聚了來。
32你們可以從無花果樹學個比方:當樹枝發嫩長葉的時候,你們就知道夏天近了。
33這樣,你們看見這一切的事,也該知道人子近了, 正在門口了。
34我實在告訴你們,這世代還沒有過去,這些事都要成就。
35天地要廢去,我的話卻不能廢去。
36那日子,那時辰,沒有人知道,連天上的使者也不知道,子也不知道,惟獨父知道。
37挪亞的日子怎樣,人子降臨也要怎樣。
38當洪水以前的日子,人照常喫喝嫁娶,直到挪亞進方舟的那日;
39不知不覺洪水來了,把他們全都沖去。人子降臨也要這樣。
40那時,兩個人在田裡,取去一個,撇下一個。
41兩個女人推磨,取去一個,撇下一個。
42所以,你們要儆醒,因為不知道你們的主是那一天來到。
43家主若知道幾更天有賊來,就必儆醒,不容人挖透房屋;這是你們所知道的。
44所以,你們也要豫備,因為你們想不到的時候,人子就來了。
45誰是忠心有見識的僕人,為主人所派,管理家裡的人,按時分糧給他們呢﹖
46主人來到,看見他這樣行,那僕人就有福了。
47我實在告訴你們,主人要派他管理一切所有的。
48倘若那惡僕心裡說:我的主人必來得遲,
49就動手打他的同伴,又和酒醉的人一同喫喝。
50在想不到的日子,不知道的時辰,那僕人的主人要來,
51重重的處治他(或作:把他腰斬了),定他和假冒為善的人同罪;在那裡必要哀哭切齒了。

Jesus left and was going away from the Temple when his disciples came to him to call his attention to its buildings.
"Yes," he said, "you may well look at all these. I tell you this: not a single stone here will be left in its place; every one of them will be thrown down."
As Jesus sat on the Mount of Olive, the disciples came to him in private. "Tell us when all this will be," they asked, "and what will happen to show that it is the time for your coming and the end of the age."
Jesus answered, "Watch out, and do not let anyone fool you.
Many men, claiming to speak for me will come and say, 'I am the Messiah!' and they will fool many people.
You are going to hear the noise of battles close by and the news of battles far away; but do not be troubled. Such things must happen, but they do not mean that the end has come.
Countries will fight each other; kingdoms will attack one another. There will be famines and earthquakes everywhere.
All these things are like the first pains of childbirth.
Then you will be arrested and handed over to be punished and be put to death. All mankind will hate you because of me.
Many will give up their faith at that time; they will betray one another and hate one another.
Then many false prophets will appear and fool many people.
Such will be the spread of evil that many people's love will grow cold.
But whoever holds out to the end will be saved.
And this Good News about the Kingdom will be preached through all the world for a witness to all mankind; and then the end will come.
You will see 'The Awful Horror' of which the prophet Daniel spoke. It will be standing in the holy place." (Note to the reader: understand what this means!)
"Then those who are in Judea must run away to the hills.
A man who is on the roof of his house must not take the time to go down and get his belongings from the house.
A man who is in the field must not go back to get his cloak.
How terrible it will be in those days for women who are pregnant and for mothers with little babies!
Pray to God that you will not have to run away during the winter or on a Sabbath!
For the trouble at that time will be far more terrible than any there has ever been, from the beginning of the world to this very day. Nor will there ever be anything like it again.
But God has already reduced the number of days; had he not done so, nobody would survive. For the sake of his chosen people, however, God will reduce the days.
Then, if anyone says to you, 'Look, here is the Messiah!' or 'There he is!'--do not believe him.
For false Messiahs and false prophets will appear; they will perform great miracles and wonders in order to deceive even God's chosen people, if possible.
Listen! I have told you this ahead of time.
Or, if people should tell you, 'Look, he is out in the desert!'--don't go there; or if they say, 'Look, he is hiding here!'--don't believe it.
For the Son of Man will come like the lightning which flashes across the whole sky from the east to the west.
Wherever there is a dead body, the vultures will gather.
Soon after the trouble of those days, the sun will grow dark, the moon will no longer shine, the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers in space will be driven from their courses.
Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky; and all the peoples of earth will weep as they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
The great trumpet will sound, and he will send out his angels to the four corners of the earth, and they will gather his chosen people from one end of the world to the other.
Let the fig tree teach you a lesson. When its branches become green and tender and it starts putting out leaves, you know that summer is near.
In the same way, when you see all these things, you will know that the time is near, ready to begin.
Remember that all these things will happen before the people now living have all died.
Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.
No one knows, however, when that day and hour will come--neither the angels in heaven nor the Son; the Father alone knows.
The coming of the Son of Man will be like what happened in the time of Noah.
In the days before the flood people ate and drink, men and women married, up to the very day Noah went into the boat;
yet they did not realize what was happening until the flood came and swept them all away. That is how it will be when the Son of Man comes.
At that time two men will be working in a field; one will be taken away, the other will be left behind.
Two women will be at a mill grinding meal; one will be taken away, the other will be left behind.
Watch out, then, because you do not know what day your Lord will come.
If the owner of a house knew the time when the thief would come, you can be sure that he would stay awake and not let the thief break into his house.
So then, you also must always be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you are not expecting him.
Who, then, is a faithful and wise servant? He is the one that his master has placed in charge of the other servants to give them their food at the proper time.
How happy that servant is if his master finds him doing this when he comes home!
Indeed, I tell you, the master will put that servant in charge of all his property.
But if he is a bad servant, he will tell himself that his master will not come back for a long time,
and he will begin to beat his fellow servants and to eat and drink with drunkards.
Then that servant's master will come back one day when the servant does not expect him and at a time he does not know.
The master will cut him in pieces and make him share the fate of the hypocrites. There he will cry and gnash his teeth.
Compare yourself if you know Chinese. Verse 9 is wrong unless talking about the present. Verse 15 refers to me, the Awful Horror. Singapore is to become the new holy place, not Jerusalem or Mecca. Verse 21 refers to the God's punishment to those promoting pornography, sodomy, lesbianism, adultery and those circumcised who refuse to acknowledge the new order--that is no circumcision. I preach the TRUTH that the Spirit at the MARK on your forehead is your God, Tao, Allah, Buddha etc. Most people will hate me for telling this. The END will come like a flood in Daniel chapter 9. This is punishment to those who reject me.
Verse 27 refers to me, or rather the mark on our forehead announced by me in this website, at the east, news about me spreading to the west. Verse 28 refers to corpse as the mark on our forehead, vultures in the sky resemble our eyebrows. Verse 32 talks about summer as similar to the happening that is to come. This might be the coming summer. Now is spring (9th February 2003)[my prediction was wrong]. Verse 34 is wrong unless talking about the present.
Verse 37 is comparing the happening now to the time of Noah. Many people will perish.
Verses 40 & 41 are talking about our body which has spiritual soul and a physical body. Spiritual soul can be saved, the physical body goes to the earth. Only first class sage can fly to heaven; the second class is resurrection.
人, if added a horizontal stroke, it becomes 大. Therefore Son of Man is indication of the mark on our forehead. So, Chinese people are lucky to understand the Holy Bible more clearly. See Jeremiah chapter 9 referring our head is like water. 水 shows the nose with eyes looking inward.
The most important factor in this chapter is the Awful Horror. Since there is no more temple, Awful Horror means our Mark on our forehead. Our forehead is like a temple, 2 tablets resemble our eyes, Aaron's rod resembles our nose, jar of manna resembles our mouth with teeth as manna, Cheribum as our eyebrows overshadowing the Mark at the nose bridge. See Hebrews chapter 9
See also Mark chapter 13 and Luke chapter 21.
