سَوْفَ يَقُومُ مُسَحَاءُ كَذَبَةٌ وأَنْبِيَاءُ كَذَبَة، ويَأْتُونَ بِآيَاتٍ عَظِيمَةٍ وخَوارِق، لِيُضِلُّوا المُخْتَارِينَ أَنْفُسَهُم، لَو قَدِرُوا
إنجيل القدّيس متّى24/من23حتى34/:”قالَ الربُّ يَسوع: «إِنْ قَالَ لَكُم أَحَد: هُوَذَا المَسِيحُ هُنَا أَوْ هُنَاك! فَلا تُصَدِّقُوا. فَسَوْفَ يَقُومُ مُسَحَاءُ كَذَبَةٌ وأَنْبِيَاءُ كَذَبَة، ويَأْتُونَ بِآيَاتٍ عَظِيمَةٍ وخَوارِق، لِيُضِلُّوا المُخْتَارِينَ أَنْفُسَهُم، لَو قَدِرُوا. هَا إِنِّي قَدْ أَنْبَأْتُكُم! فَإِنْ قَالُوا لَكُم: هَا هُوَ في البَرِّيَّة! فلا تَخْرُجُوا، أَو: هَا هُوَ في دَاخِلِ البَيْت! فَلا تُصَدِّقُوا. فكَمَا أَنَّ البَرْقَ يُومِضُ مِنَ المَشَارِق، ويَسْطَعُ حَتَّى المَغَارِب، هكَذَا يَكُونُ مَجِيءُ ٱبْنِ الإِنْسَان. حَيْثُ تَكُونُ الجُثَّةُ هُنَاكَ تَجْتَمِعُ النُّسُور. وحَالاً بَعْدَ ضِيقِ تِلْكَ الأَيَّام، أَلشَّمْسُ تُظْلِم، والقَمَرُ لا يُعْطِي ضَوءَهُ، والنُّجُومُ تَتَسَاقَطُ مِنَ السَّمَاء، وقُوَّاتُ السَّمَاوَاتِ تَتَزَعْزَع. وحينَئِذٍ تَظْهَرُ في السَّمَاءِ عَلامَةُ ٱبْنِ الإِنْسَان، فَتَنْتَحِبُ قَبَائِلُ الأَرْضِ كُلُّها، وتَرَى ٱبْنَ الإِنْسَانِ آتِيًا على سُحُبِ السَّمَاءِ بِقُدْرَةٍ ومَجْدٍ عَظِيم. ويُرْسِلُ مَلائِكَتَهُ يَنْفُخُونَ في بُوقٍ عَظِيم، فيَجْمَعُونَ مُخْتَارِيهِ مِنَ الرِّيَاحِ الأَرْبَع، مِنْ أَقَاصي السَّمَاوَاتِ إِلى أَقَاصِيهَا.”

False messiahs and false prophets will appear and produce great signs and omens, to lead astray, if possible, even the elect
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Matthew 24/23-31/:”If anyone says to you, “Look! Here is the Messiah!” or “There he is!” do not believe it. For false messiahs and false prophets will appear and produce great signs and omens, to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.Take note, I have told you beforehand. So, if they say to you, “Look! He is in the wilderness”, do not go out. If they say, “Look! He is in the inner rooms”, do not believe it. For as the lightning comes from the east and flashes as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. Wherever the corpse is, there the vultures will gather. ‘Immediately after the suffering of those days the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of heaven will be shaken. Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see “the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven” with power and great glory. And he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.”
