24For there shall arise false Christs, and false
prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch
that, if it were possible,
they shall deceive the very elect.
25
Behold, I have told you before.
26Wherefore 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.
16 For the Lord himself
shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice
of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the
dead in Christ shall rise first:
16 And said to the
mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the
face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the
wrath of the Lamb:
17 For the great day
of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?
1 Thessalonians 4:16, 17
16 For the Lord himself
shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice
of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the
dead in Christ shall rise first:
17 Then we which are
alive and remain shall
be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet
the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the
Lord.
Philippians 3:20, 21
20 For our conversation
is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour,
the Lord Jesus Christ:
21 Who shall change
our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his
glorious body, according to the working whereby he is
able even to subdue all things unto himself.
John 17:24
24Father, I will that they also,
whom thou hast given me, be with me where I am; that
they may behold my glory, which thou hast given me:
for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.
Luke 17:26-30
26And as it was in the days of
Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.
27They did eat, they drank, they
married wives, they were given in marriage, until the
day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came,
and destroyed them all.
28Likewise also as it was in the
days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought,
they sold, they planted, they builded;
29But the same day that Lot went
out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven,
and destroyedthem
all.
30Even thus shall it be in the
day when the Son of man is revealed.
2 Thessalonians 2 : 8
8 And then shall that
Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with
the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the
brightness of his coming:
Matthew 24 : 36-42, 44
36But of that day and hour knoweth
no man,
no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
37But as the days of Noe were,
so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38For as in the days that were
before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying
and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered
into the ark,
39And knew not until the flood
came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming
of the Son of man be.
40Then shall two be in the field;
the one shall be taken, and the other left.
41Two women shall be
grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the
other left.
