Matthew 24:24

The Abomination of Desolation

23At that time, if anyone says to you, ‘Look, here is the Christ!’ or ‘There He is!’ do not believe it.24For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and wonders that would deceive even the elect, if that were possible.25See, I have told you in advance.
