3 And as* he was sitting on the Mount of Olives opposite the temple, Peter and James and John and Andrew asked him privately,
4 "Tell us, when will these things happen, and what will be the sign when all these things are about to be accomplished?"
5 So Jesus began to say to them, "Watch out that no one deceives you!
6 Many will come in my name, saying, 'I am he,' and they will deceive many.
7 And when you hear about wars and rumors of wars, do not be alarmed. This must happen, but the end is not yet.

22 For false messiahs and false prophets will appear, and will produce signs and wonders in order to mislead, if possible, the elect.
