Thematic Bible





And to the messenger of the church among the Thyatirians write; Thus says the Son of God, having his eyes as a flame of fire, and his feet like the brass of Lebanon; I know thy works, and love, and service, and faith, and thy patience, and thy works; and the last more than the first.

And Jesus having gone out, went out of the temple: and his disciples came near to shew him the buildings of the temple. And Jesus said to them, See ye not all these? truly I say to you, Stone upon stone shall not be left here, which shall not be loosened. And sitting upon the mount of Olives, his disciples came to him apart, saying, Say to us when these shall be, and what the sign of thy arrival, and the termination of the time. read more.
And Jesus having answered, said to them, See lest any lead you astray. For many shall come upon my name, saying, I am Christ; and deceive many. And ye will be about to hear of wars and rumors of war: see, be not terrified; for all must be, but the end is not yet. For nation shall be raised up against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; and there shall be famines, and plagues, and shakings in places. And all these the beginning of anguish. Then shall they deliver you to pressure, and they shall kill you: and ye shall be hated by all nations, for my name. And then shall many be offended, and they shall deliver up one another, and they shall hate one another. And many false prophets shall be raised up, and deceive many. And because anxiety shall increase, the love of many shall be cooled. But he having persevered to the end, this shall be saved. And this good news of the kingdom shall be proclaimed in the whole habitable globe for a witness to all nations: and then shall the end come. Therefore, when ye see the abomination of devastation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place, (let him reading, understand:) Then let them in Judea flee to the mountain; He upon the house-tops, let him not come down to take away anything out of his house: And he in the field, let him not turn back to take up his garments: And woe to those having in the womb, and to those giving suck, in those days! And pray that your flight be not in winter, nor in the sabbath. For then shall be great pressure, such as has not been from the beginning of the world till now, nor should be. And except those days had been shortened, no flesh should be saved: but for the chosen, those days shall be shortened.

And he going out of the temple, one of his disciples says to him, Teacher, see of what country the stones, and of what country the buildings! And Jesus having answered, said to him, Seest thou these great buildings? stone upon stone shall not be left which shall not be loosed. And he sitting in the mount of Olives over against the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him apart, read more.
Say to us, when shall be these things? and what the sign when all these be about to be finished? And Jesus having answered began to say to them, See ye lest any should lead you astray: For many shall come in my name, saying, That I am; and they shall lead many astray. And when ye hear of wars and rumors of wars, be not terrified: for it must be; but the end is not yet. For nation shall be raised against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there shall be earthquakes in places, and there shall be famines, and commotions: these the beginnings of anguish. And see ye to yourselves: for they shall deliver you up to councils; and in the synagogues shall ye be stripped: and shall be set before rulers and kings for my sake, for testimony to them. And the good news must first be proclaimed to all nations. And when delivering up, they bring you, take no care beforehand what ye speak, neither bestow attention: but whatever should be given you in that hour, that speak ye: for not ye are speaking, but the Holy Spirit. And brother shall deliver brother to death, and father child; and children shall rise up against parents, and kill them. And ye shall be hated by all for my name's sake: and he having remained to the end, the same shall be saved. And when ye see the abomination of desolation, that spoken by Daniel the prophet, standing where it ought not, (let him reading understand,) then let them in Judea flee to the mountains: And he upon the house, let him not come down into the house, nor let him come in, to take any thing away out of his house: And he being in the field, let him not turn back to take up his garment. And woe to them having in the womb, and to them giving suck in those days! And pray ye that your flight be not of winter. For those days shall be pressure, such as there has not been from beginning of creation which God created till now, and should not be. And except the Lord shortened the days, no flesh should be saved: but for the chosen whom he chose, he shortened the days.

After these things I saw, and, behold, a great multitude, which none could number it, of all nations, and tribes, and peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne, and before the Lamb, having put round white robes, and palm trees in their hands; And crying with a great voice, saying, Salvation to our God sitting upon the throne, and to the Lamb. And all the angels stood round about the throne, and the elders and the four living creatures, and they fell before the throne upon their faces, and worshipped God, read more.
Saying, Amen: praise, and glory, and wisdom, and gratitude, and honour, and power, and strength, to our God for ever and ever. Amen. And one of the elders answered, saying to me, These having put round white robes, who are they? and whence came they And I said to him, Lord, thou knowest. And he said to me, These are they coming out of great pressure, and they washed their robes, and whitened their robes in the blood of the Lamb. Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he sitting upon the throne will dwell among them. They shall hunger no more, nor thirst any more; nor should the sun fall upon them, neither any heat. For the Lamb in the midst of the throne shall feed them, and shall guide them to living fountains of water: and God shall wipe out every tear from their eyes.

Jesus answered them, Now do ye believe? Behold, the hour comes, and has now come, that ye be scattered, each to his own, and leave me alone: and I am not alone, for the Father is with me. These have I spoken to you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world shall ye have pressure; but take courage; I have conquered the world.
