I can only give you what I have been given.
1 Thess 2:19:
For what is our hope, or joy, or crown of rejoicing? Are not even ye in the presence of our Lord Jesus Christ at his coming?
Thessalonians 4:15-17 (ASV): For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we that are alive, that are left unto the coming of the Lord, shall in no wise precede them that are fallen asleep. 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; then we that are alive, that are left, shall together with them be caught up in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
**1 Corinthians 15:51-58 **
51 Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, but we shall all be changed,
52 in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality.
54 But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
55 O death, where is thy victory? O death, where is thy sting?
56 The sting of death is sin; and the power of sin is the law:
57 but thanks be to God, who giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 58 Wherefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labor is not vain in the Lord.
Titus 2:13:
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
Regardless of wether he comes or not during my life, it does not really matter. For as Paul wrote and I agree…
1 Cor 15:19:
If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
The realm to come is more glorious then this dark and evil valley could ever hope to be. Israel was given over to the Wrath of God in the wilderness due to unbelief (stiff necks), they entered not into his (Christ’s) rest.
John 11:26
And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
Iesous is Greek for Jesus.
Peace.
Peace.
Peace.
