knowing this first, that at the last days mockers will come forth in scoffing, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for from the day when the fathers fell asleep, all things remain as from the beginning of creation. For they willingly forget this, that the heavens were in the olden time, and the earth standing out of the water and through the water, by the word of God; read more.
by which the world at that time, being flooded with water, perished:

If thou art the Christ, tell us openly. Jesus responded, I told you, and you do not believe: the works which I do in the name of my Father, these testify concerning me. But you do not believe, because you are not of my sheep. My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: read more.

And certain ones speaking concerning the temple, that it was ornamented with beautiful stones and offerings, He said, These things which you see, the days will come, in which stone will not be left upon stone, which shall not be thrown down. And they asked Him, saying, Teacher, when then shall these things be? and what shall be the sign when these things may be about to come to pass? read more.
And He said, See that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, saying, I am He; and The time is at hand: go ye not after them. And when ye may hear of wars and commotions, be not affrighted: for it behooveth these things first to take place; but the end is not immediately. Then He said to them, Nation shall rise up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in divers places; and there shall be great terrors and signs from heaven. And before all of these things, they will lay their hands on you, and persecute you, delivering you into their synagogues and prisons, led before kings and governors on account of my name. And it shall come to pass to you for a testimony. Place it in your hearts, not to premeditate your defense: for I will give to you mouth and wisdom, which all who are opposed to you will not be able to gainsay nor resist. And you shall be delivered up also by your parents, and brothers, and relatives, and friends; and they will kill some of you. And you shall be hated by all, on account of my name: and not a hair from your head shall perish.

And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, so does it behoove the Son of man to be lifted up: that every one believing in Him may have eternal life. For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that every one believing on Him may not perish but have eternal life.

For the word of the cross is foolishness indeed to those who are lost; but to those who are saved it is the power of God. For it has been written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nought the understanding of the intelligent. Where is the wise man? where is the scribe? where is the investigator of this age? has not God rendered the wisdom of the world foolishness? read more.
For since in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, God was pleased through the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe. Since indeed the Jews ask for miracles, and the Greeks seek after wisdom; but we preach Christ having been crucified, to the Jews indeed a stumbling block, and to the Gentiles foolishness; but to you who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
