Malachi 4 v 1-6


Judgment and Covenant Renewal


1 “Surely the day is coming; it will burn like a furnace. All the arrogant and every evildoer will be stubble, and the day that is coming will set them on fire,” says the Lord Almighty. “Not a root or a branch will be left to them.


2 But for you who revere my name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its rays. And you will go out and frolic like well-fed calves.






Luke 21 v 5-14


The Destruction of the Temple and Signs of the End Times


5 Some of his disciples were remarking about how the temple was adorned with beautiful stones and with gifts dedicated to God. But Jesus said,



6 “As for what you see here, the time will come when not one stone will be left on another; every one of them will be thrown down.”



7 “Teacher,” they asked, “when will these things happen? And what will be the sign that they are about to take place?”



8 He replied: “Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not follow them.



9 When you hear of wars and uprisings, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away.”



10 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom.



11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.



12 “But before all this, they will seize you and persecute you. They will hand you over to synagogues and put you in prison, and you will be brought before kings and governors, and all on account of my name.



13 And so you will bear testimony to me.



14 But make up your mind not to worry beforehand how you will defend yourselves.
