3 There will be earthquakes, national rebellions, international intrigues, unstable leaders, and confused rulers. When you see these things happening,
4 you will know that they are what God Most High has spoken about since the beginning of creation.
5 The beginning and the end of everything that happens in this world are clear.
6 The same is true in the world above: wonders and miracles show the beginning of events, and mighty signs show when they end.
7 “Some people will escape destruction and be saved by their good works or by their faith. All of them
8 will survive the dangers I have described and will enjoy the salvation provided in the land that I have set apart from eternity as my own.
