1 You have no need that I write to you about the times and dates, brothers.
2 For you know perfectly that the »Day of Jehovah« will come like a thief in the night. (Zephaniah 1:14)
3 When they say, »Peace and security!« then sudden destruction will come upon them, as labor pains come to a pregnant woman. They will not escape.
36 »No one knows the day and the hour the period of time. The angels of heaven do not know. The Son does not know. Only the Father knows!
37 »The presence of the Son of man will be similar to the days of Noah.
38 »It will be like those days before the Flood. They were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark.
39 »They were not aware until the Flood came and took them all away. The coming presence of the Son of man will be like this.
9 When he said these things, while they watched, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
10 They gazed intently into the sky as he went into heaven. Two men wearing white stood beside them.
11 They said: »You men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was received up from you into heaven will come in a similar manner as you saw him go into heaven.«
11 Seeing that these things are thus all to be dissolved destroyed, what manner of persons should you be in all holy living and godliness?
12 Look for and earnestly desire the coming presence of the »Day of Jehovah.« (Zephaniah 1:14) The heavens being on fire will be dissolved destroyed, and the elements will melt with intense heat!
13 We look for new heavens and a new earth, where righteousness dwells. This is according to his promise.
16 For the Lord will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God: and the dead in Christ will rise first.
17 We that are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air; and so will we ever be with the Lord.
20 He who testifies to these things says: "I come quickly." Amen. Come, Lord Jesus!
8 Do not forget this one thing, beloved, that one day is with Jehovah as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. (Psalm 90:1, 4)
9 Jehovah is not slow concerning his promise, as some count slowness. He is longsuffering patient toward you. He does not wish that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
10 The day of Jehovah will come as a thief. The heavens will pass away with a great noise. The elements shall be dissolved with intense heat. And the earth and the works in it will be burned up destroyed. (Joel 2:31) (Zephaniah 1:14)
32 »No one knows the day or hour. The angels in heaven do not know. The Son of God does not know. Only the Father knows!
26 »If any man is ashamed of my teachings, and of me the Son of man will be ashamed of that person. This will happen when he comes in his own glory, and the glory of the Father, and of the holy angels.
12 "'Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give to every man according as his work.
1 Now we ask you, brothers, concerning the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our gathering together to him,
2 do not get upset right away or alarmed when someone claims that we said through some spirit, conversation, or letter that the »Day of Jehovah« has already come. (Isaiah 13:6) (Zephaniah 1:14) (2 Peter 3:10)
3 Do not let anyone deceive you about this in any way. That day will not come unless apostasy a falling away from truth takes place first, and the man of lawlessness sin, the man of destruction, is revealed. (2 Timothy 4:3)
4 He opposes and exalts himself above every so-called god and object of worship. As a result, he seats himself in the sanctuary of God and declares promotes himself to be like God. (Ezekiel 28:2)
27 It is appointed to men once to die, but after this the judgment:
28 So Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. He will appear the second time without sin to those who look to him for their salvation.
2 »In my Fathers house are many dwelling places. If it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 »If I go and prepare a place for you I will come again and I will receive you to myself, for where I am you may also be.
42 »Be alert, for you do not know what day the Lord will come.
43 »Know this, if the master of the house had known what time the thief was coming, he would have watched and his house would not have been vandalized.
44 »Be prepared! The Son of man will come at a time when you do not expect it.
24 »In those days after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give her light.
25 »The stars will fall from heaven and the powers that are in the heavens will be shaken.
26 »They will see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
27 »He will send the angels to gather together his anointed from the four winds, from one end of the earth to the other end of heaven.
31 »When the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne.
32 »All nations will be gathered before him. He will then separate them one from another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats.
33 »He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
11 I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse; and he who sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he judges and makes war.
12 His eyes were like a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns diadems. He had a name written that no man knew, but himself.
13 He was clothed with a garment dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
14 The armies in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
15 Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword, that with it he should strike the nations. He will rule them with a rod of iron. He treads the winepress of the fierceness and anger of Almighty God.
16 He has on his garment and on his thigh a name written, "King of Kings" and "Lord of Lords"!
