Jesus Is Coming Soon This Is Signs Of Sorrow!

Jerusalem Prophecy by Jesus Christ

Luke 20

The Gospel According to St. Luke

	Chapter 21
	And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury.
	And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites.
	And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all:
	For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
	And as some spake of the temple, how it was adorned with goodly stones and gifts, he said,
	[As for] these things which ye behold, the days will come, in the which there shall not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.
	And they asked him, saying, Master, but when shall these things be? and what sign [will there be] when these things shall come to pass?
	And he said, Take heed that ye be not deceived: for many shall come in my name, saying, I am [Christ]; and the time draweth near: go ye not therefore after them.
	But when ye shall hear of wars and commotions, be not terrified: for these things must first come to pass; but the end [is] not by and by.
	Then said he unto them, Nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom:
	And great earthquakes shall be in divers places, and famines, and pestilences; and fearful sights and great signs shall there be from heaven.
	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.
	And it shall turn to you for a testimony.
	Settle [it] therefore in your hearts, not to meditate before what ye shall answer:
	For I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which all your adversaries shall not be able to gainsay nor resist.
	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.
	And ye shall be hated of all [men] for my name's sake.
	But there shall not an hair of your head perish.
	In your patience possess ye your souls.
	And when ye shall see Jerusalem compassed with armies, then know that the desolation thereof is nigh.
	Then let them which are in Judaea flee to the mountains; and let them which are in the midst of it depart out; and let not them that are in the countries enter thereinto.
	For these be the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled.
	But woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck, in those days! for there shall be great distress in the land, and wrath upon this people.
	And they shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
	And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;
	Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.
	And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.
	And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.
	And he spake to them a parable; Behold the fig tree, and all the trees;
	When they now shoot forth, ye see and know of your own selves that summer is now nigh at hand.
	So likewise ye, when ye see these things come to pass, know ye that the kingdom of God is nigh at hand.
	Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass away, till all be fulfilled.
	Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
	And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and [so] that day come upon you unawares.
	For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
	Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
	And in the day time he was teaching in the temple; and at night he went out, and abode in the mount that is called [the mount] of Olives.
	And all the people came early in the morning to him in the temple, for to hear him.

Yom Kippur

What is Yom Kippur? The holiest day of the year. Fasting and atonement, solemnity and joy... http://www.chabad.org/holidays/JewishNewYear/template_cdo/aid/177886/jewish/What-is-Yom-Kippur.htm

Yom Kippur is the holiest day of the year--the day on which we are closest to G‑d and to the quintessence of our own souls. It is the Day of Atonement--"For on this day He will forgive you, to purifyyou, that you be cleansed from all your sins before G‑d" (Leviticus 16:30). For nearly twenty-six hours--from several minutes before sunset on Tishrei 9 to after nightfall on Tishrei 10--we "afflict our souls": we abstain from food and drink, do not wash or anoint our bodies, do not wear leather footwear, and abstain from marital relations. Before Yom Kippur we perform the Kaparot atonement service; we request and receive honey cake, in acknowledgement that we are allrecipients in G-d's world and in prayerful hope for a sweet and abundant year; eat a festive meal; immerse in a mikvah; and give extra charity. Late afternoon we eat the pre-fast meal, following which we bless our children, light a memorial candle as well as the holiday candles, and go to thesynagogue for Kol Nidrei services. In the course of Yom Kippur we hold five prayer services: Maariv, with its solemn Kol Nidrei service, on the eve of Yom Kippur; Shacharit--the morning prayer, which includes the reading from Leviticus followed by theyizkor memorial service; Musaf, which includes a detailed account of the Yom Kippur Temple service; Minchah, which includes the reading of theBook of Jonah; and Neilah, the "closing of the gates" service at sunset. We say the Al Chet confession of sins eight times in the course of Yom Kippur, and recite Psalms every available moment. The day is the most solemn of the year, yet an undertone of joy suffuses it: a joy that revels in the spirituality of the day and expresses the confidence that G-d will accept our repentance, forgive our sins, and seal our verdictfor a year of life, health and happiness. The closing Neilah service climaxes in the resounding cries of "Hear O Israel... G-d is one." Then joy erupts in song and dance (a Chabad custom is to sing the lively "Napoleon's March"), followed by a single blast of the shofar, followed by the proclamation, "Next year in Jerusalem." We then partake of a festive after-fast meal, making the evening after Yom Kippur a Yom Tov (festival) in its own right.
