Carefully He warned them against deception: "If they shall say unto you, Behold, He is in the desert; go not forth: behold, He is in the secret chambers; believe it not. For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be." Matthew 24:26, 27.

Kærligt advarede han dem mod forførelser: "Hvis de altså siger til jer: "Se, han er i ørkenen", så gå ikke derud; "se, han er i kamrene", så tro det ikke! Thi ligesom lynet, der kommer fra øst, lyser helt om i vest, sådan skal Menneskesønnens komme være". Matt. 24,26-27.
