51 Behold, I show you a mystery: We shall all indeed be raised, but we shall not all be changed;
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet, for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised without corruption, and we shall be changed.
17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams;
18 and [for] certain on my servants and on my handmaidens I will pour out in those days of my Spirit, and they shall prophesy;
19 and I will show wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath: blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke;
20 the sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood before that great and notable day of the Lord [shall] come;
21 and it shall come to pass [that] whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
1 This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2 For there shall be men who are lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, evil speakers, disobedient to their parents, unthankful, impure,
3 without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, without temperance, without meekness, without goodness,
4 traitors, rash, puffed up, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God,
5 having the appearance of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.
1 And at that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince who is for the sons of thy people, and it shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there were people until now, but in that time thy people shall escape, all those that are found written in the book.
2 And many of those that sleep in the dust of the earth shall be awakened, some for eternal life, and some for shame [and] everlasting confusion.
3 And those that understand shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and those that teach righteousness [to] the multitude as the stars in perpetual eternity.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from the heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken,
30 and then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven, and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with great power and glory.
31 And he shall send his angels with a trumpet and a great voice, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with excess and drunkenness and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
35 For as a snare it shall come on all those that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36 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.
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I, John, saw the holy city, [the] new Jerusalem, coming down out of the heaven, prepared of God as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold the tabernacle of God with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them [and be] their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and death shall be no more neither shall there be any more sorrow nor crying nor pain; for the former things are passed away.
14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations, and then shall the end come.
1 For, behold, the day comes that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, and all that do wickedly shall be stubble; and the day that comes shall burn them up, said the LORD of the hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.
2 But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness be born, and in his wings [he shall bring] saving health; and ye shall go forth and jump like calves of the herd.
17 For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind.
18 But ye shall be glad and rejoice from age to age in the things which I shall create; for, behold, I create joy unto Jerusalem and unto her people joy.
19 And I will be glad with Jerusalem and rejoice with my people: and the voice of weeping shall no longer be heard in her, nor the voice of crying.
20 teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you; and, behold, I am with you always [even] unto the end of the age. Amen.:
42 Watch therefore, for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
43 But know this that if the husband of the house knew in what watch the thief would come, he would watch and would not suffer his house to be broken into.
44 Therefore be ye also ready; the Son of man is to come in the hour that ye think not.
8 But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day before the Lord is as a thousand years, and a thousand years are as one day.
9 The Lord is not late concerning his promise, as some count lateness, but is patient with us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements, burning, shall be dissolved, and the earth and the works that are in it shall be burned up.
11 [Seeing] then [that] all these things shall be dissolved, what manner [of persons] ought ye to be in [all] holy conversation and godliness,
12 waiting for and desiring earnestly for the coming of the day of God, in which the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat?
13 Nevertheless we, according to his promises, wait for new heavens and a new earth, in which dwells righteousness.
15 For this, we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we who are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not precede those who are asleep.
16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God; and the dead in Christ shall rise first;
17 then we who 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.
18 Therefore comfort one another with these words.:
32 But of that day and [that] hour no one knows, no, not even the angels who are in the heaven, neither the Son, but only the Father.
