Matthew 24:22
King James VersionSource notes
“And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.”
Context
19And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!
20But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:
21For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.
22And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect’s sake those days shall be shortened.
23Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here Christ, or there; believe not.
24For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25Behold, I have told you before.
