preached in all the world for a witness

unto all nations; and then shall the end

come.”

• Matthew 24:3 – “And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples

came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end

of the world?”

• Zechariah 14:4 – “And His feet

shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives,

which is before Jerusalem on the east, and the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, and there shall be a very

great valley; and half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, and half of it toward

the south.”

The RAPTURE

Jesus comes IN

the clouds FOR His saints.

The Second Coming Jesus comes WITH the

clouds WITH His saints.

•1 Corinthians 1:22 - “For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks

seek after wisdom”

• Matthew 16:3 – “And in the morning, It will be foul

weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O ye

hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs

of the times?”

• Matthew 16:1-3 – “The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came,

and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven. He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.

And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and

lowring. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?”

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 “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 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.”

Revelation 4:1

“After this I looked, and,

behold, a door was opened in

heaven: and the first

voice which I heard was as it were of a

trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee

things which must be

hereafter.”



Romans 13:11-12 - And that, knowing the

time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than

when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the

works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.

• Romans 13:13-14 - “Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting

and drunkenness, not in chambering and

wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord

Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the

flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof.”

the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual. For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? But we

have the mind of Christ.”

Hebrews 4:12-13 – “For the word of God is

quick, and powerful, and sharper than any

twoedged sword, piercing even to the

dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the

joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the

thoughts and intents of the heart. Neither is

there any creature that is not manifest in his

sight: but all things are naked and opened unto

the eyes of him with whom we have to do.”

1st Timothy 6:3-5 – “If any man teach otherwise, and consent not to wholesome words, even

the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, and to the doctrine

which is according to godliness; He is proud,

knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy,

strife, railings, evil surmisings, Perverse disputings of men of

corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain

is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.”

•2nd Timothy 1:13 – “Hold fast the form of sound words, which

thou hast heard of me, in faith

and love which is in Christ Jesus.”
