1 Thessalonians 4:16-18

• 16.
• For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first.

• 17.
• After that, we who are still alive* and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever.

• 18.
• Therefore encourage each other with these words.

*(and in Christ, born again Christians, saved)
