God and your enemies say that this house shall never fall, But Verily I say unto you that desolation shall come upon this generation as a thief in the night and this people shall be destroyed and scattered among all nations and this Temple which ye now see shall be thrown down that there shall not be left one stone upon an other and it shall come to pass that this generation of Jews shall not pass away until every desolation which I have told you concerning them shall come to pass— Ye say that Ye know that the end of the world cometh ye say also that ye know that the heavens and the earth shall pass away and in this ye say truly for so it is but these things which I have told you shall not pass away but all shall be fulfilled and this I have told you concerning and when that day shall come shall a remnant be scattered among all nations but they shall be gathered again but they shall be gathered remain till the times of the gentiles be fulfilled— and in that day shall be heard of wars and rumours of wars and the whole earth shall be in commotion and men’s hearts shall fail them and shall say that Christ delayeth his comeing until the end of the word and the love of men shall wax cold and iniquity shall abound and when the times of the Gentiles is come in a light shall break forth among them that sit in darkness and it shall be the fulness of my gospel but they receive it not for they perceive not the light and they turn their hearts from me because of the precepts of men and in that generation shall the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled and there shall be men standing in that generation that shall not pass until they shall see an overflowing scourge— for a desolating sickness shall cover the land but my Disciples shall stand in holy places and shall not be moved [p.
