Matthew 24:22-28 And if these days had not been shortened, no flesh would have been saved; but for the elect's sake these days will be cut short.

MNT⁽ⁱ⁾ ²² And if these days had not been shortened, no flesh would have been saved; but for the elect's sake these days will be cut short. ²³ "If at that time any one should say to you, 'See, here is the Christ!' or 'There he is!' believe him not. ²⁴ For false christs and false prophets will arise, and will work great signs and wonders, so as to mislead, if it were possible, the very elect. ²⁵ See, I have forewarned you! So if they say to you, ²⁶ "'See, He is in the desert,' do not go out there. "'See, He is in the inner room,' do not believe it. ²⁷ For just as the lightning flashes from the east, and is seen even to the west; so will be the coming of the Son of man. ²⁸ Wherever the corpse lies, there will the vultures flock together.
