1 Thessalonians 4:13~18 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning those who are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others who have no hope. for if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so will God bring with Him those also who sleep in Jesus. 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. 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; 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. therefore comfort one another with these Words... 2 Thessalonians 2:1~11------- Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ and by our gathering together unto Him, that ye be not soon shaken in mind or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as if from us that the Day of Christ is at hand. let no man deceive you by any means, for that Day shall not come, unless there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition, who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God or that is worshiped, so that he sitteth as God in the Temple of God, showing himself to be God. remember ye not that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? and now ye know what withholdeth, that he might be revealed in his time. for the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now holdeth back will hold him back, until he is taken out of the way. and then shall that wicked one be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the Spirit of His mouth, and shall destroy with the Brightness of His coming— even him, whose coming is according to the working of Satan, with all power and signs and lying wonders, and with all the deceit of unrighteousness in those who perish, because they received not the love of the truth, -------that they might be saved------- and for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie... 1 Timothy 4:1~4------------ Now the Spirit speaketh expressly that in the latter times some shall depart from the faith, giving heed to seducing spirits and doctrines of Devils, speaking lies in hypocrisy, having their conscience seared with a hot iron, forbidding to marry, and commanding to abstain from meats, which God hath created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and know the Truth. for every creature of God is good, and nothing to be refused if it be received with thanksgiving; 2 Timothy 4:1~4------------- I charge thee therefore before God and the Lord Jesus Christ, who shall judge the quick and the dead at His appearing and His Kingdom Preach the Word; be instant in season and out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine. for the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but having itching ears, they shall heap to themselves teachers in accordance with their own lusts. and they shall turn away their ears from the Truth, and shall be turned toward fables... 2 Peter 3:3~10----------------- Knowing this first: that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts and saying, “where is the promise of His coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.” for of this they are willfully ignorant: that by the Word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water, whereby the world as it then was, being overflowed with water, perished. but the heavens and the earth which now are, by the same Word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the Day of Judgment and perdition of ungodly men. but, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing: that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. the Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 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 shall melt with fervent heat. the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up...
