Mark 13:7

Temple Destruction and Other Signs

6Many will come in My name, claiming, ‘I am He,’ and will deceive many.7When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. These things must happen, but the end is still to come.8Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be earthquakes in various places, as well as famines. These are the beginning of birth pains.
