Mark 13.9-13

"But take heed to yourselves, for they will deliver you up to councils; and you will be beaten in synagogues; and you will stand before governors and kings for my sake, to bear testimony before them.

"And the gospel must first be preached to all nations.

"And when they bring you to trial and deliver you up, do not be anxious beforehand what you are to say; but say whatever is given to you in that hour, for it is not you who speak, but the Holy Spirit.

"And brother will deliver up brother to death; and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death; and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved."

Mark 13.3-8

And as he sat on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately, "When will this be, and what will be the sign when these things are all to be accomplished?"

And Jesus told them, "Take heed that no one leads you astray. Many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Messiah!' and they will lead many astray. When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed; this must take place, but the end is not yet. For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be earthquakes in various places, there will be famines; this is but the beginning of the birth-pangs."

Mark 13.1-2

As he was leaving the Temple, one of his disciples exclaimed, "Look, Master, what huge stones! What fine buildings!"

Jesus said to him, "You see these great buildings? Not one stone will be left upon another; all will be thrown down."

Mark 12.38->

There was a great crowd and they listened to him eagerly. He said as he taught them, "Beware of the doctors of the Law, who love to walk up and down in long robes, receiving respectful greetings in the street, and to have the chief seats in synagogues, and places of honor at feasts. These are the men who eat up the property of widows, while they say long prayers for appearance' sake, and they will receive the severest sentence."

Once he was standing opposite the Temple treasury, watching as people dropped their money into the chest. Many rich people were giving large sums. Presently there came a poor widow who dropped in two tiny coins, together worth a farthing.

He called his disciples to him. "I tell you this," he said. "This widow has given more than any of the others, for those others had more than enough for themselves; but she, with less than enough, has given all that she had to live on."

Mark 12.35-37

After that nobody ventured to put any more questions to him; and Jesus went on to say, as he taught in the Temple, "How can the teachers of the Law maintain that the Messiah is 'Son of David'? David himself said, when inspired by the Holy Spirit, 'The Lord said to my Lord, "Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies your footstool." ' David himself calls him 'Lord'; how can he also be David's son?"
