P. 145

10 Jesus said: And if I go and prepare a place for
          you,  I  will  come  again,  and  receive  you  unto
          myself; that where I am, there you may be also.
          11  Because  you  have  kept  the  word  of  my
          patience, I also will keep you from the hour of
          temptation, which shall come upon the entire
          world, to try them that dwell upon the earth.

          12  Heaven  and  earth  shall  pass  away:  but  my
          words  shall  not  pass  away.  So  take  heed  to
          yourselves,  lest  at  any  time  your  hearts  be
          overcharged  with  rioting,  drunkenness,  and
          cares  of  this  life,  and  so  that  day  come  upon
          you unawares. For as a snare, it shall come on
          all  them  that  dwell  on  the  face  of  the  whole
          earth.  So  watch  then,  and  pray  always,

          that  you  may  be  accounted  worthy  to

          escape all these things that shall come to
          pass and to stand before the Son of man.

          13 For God has not appointed us to wrath, but
          to  obtain  salvation  by  our  Lord  Jesus  Christ,
          who  died  for  us,  that,  whether  we  wake  or
          sleep,  we  should  live  together  with  him.  14

          Know this first, there shall come in the last days
          scoffers,  walking  after  their  own  lusts,  saying:
