A dear friend and I are studying "end times" and what the Bible has to say about them. Below are words of Christ regarding this subject.
[Luk 21:10 KJV] Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
The world will be in conflict. Humans will not be getting along with humans.
[Luk 21:11 KJV] And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
There are going to be hardships and fearful things that we will witness.
[Luk 21:12 KJV] But before all these, they shall lay their hands on you, and persecute [you], delivering [you] up to the synagogues, and into prisons, being brought before kings and rulers for my name's sake.
Christians will be targets of blame.
[Luk 21:13 KJV] And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
But God can use this to bear witness to Himself through you.
[Luk 21:14 KJV] Settle [it] therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer: [Luk 21:15 KJV] For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
Don't try and plan your words when defending yourself. He will give you His Words to speak.
[Luk 21:16 KJV] And ye shall be betrayed both by parents, and brethren, and kinsfolks, and friends; and [some] of you shall they cause to be put to death.
Family and friends will betray you to preserve their own lives and it may turn out badly resulting in physical death.
[Luk 21:17 KJV] And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake.
People will hate you because they first hated Him.
[Luk 21:18 KJV] But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
Eternally, anyway.
[Luk 21:19 KJV] In your patience possess ye your souls.
Hold fast, He is coming to collect His own to be with us forever.
