[21] For then great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, shall be. [22] And those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened. [23] Then if any man shall say Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. [24] 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. [25] Behold, [26] Wherefore if they shall say Behold, in the desert; not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.
