52:004:015 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we
which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall
not prevent them which are asleep.
52:004:016 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:
52:004:017 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.
52:004:018 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
52:005:001 But of the times and the seasons, brethren, ye have no need
that I write unto you.
52:005:002 For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so
cometh as a thief in the night.
52:005:003 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
52:005:004 But ye, brethren, are not in darkness, that that day should
overtake you as a thief.
52:005:005 Ye are all the children of light, and the children of the day:
we are not of the night, nor of darkness.
52:005:006 Therefore let us not sleep, as do others; but let us watch and
be sober.
