What warnings does Jesus tell the people in verse 15-17, chapter 13 of Mark to be aware of?
When that destruction came, there wasn’t going to be time to “return to take anything out of [your]house”, nor to “return back [from the fields] to take [your]clothes”, but rather the command was to “flee into themountains”. (Joseph Smith-Matthew 1:12-16). With this flight in mind, Jesus calls out two groups that would be disadvantaged in a flight from ruin: pregnant women, and women with young children (too young to care for themselves).
Is this the Great Tribulation that Jesus was talking about in verse 19 of chapter 13 in the book of Mark?

The sun will grow dark. The moon will no longer shine, the stars will fall from heaven and the powers in space will be driven from their courses.
What will happen in connection with Jesus coming then?
The Son of Man will appear coming in the clouds with great power and glory and He will send angels out to the four corners of the earth to gather God’s chosen people from one end of the world to the other.
