Catching up of believers(rapture)
1Thessalonians 4:13 But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
1Thessalonians 4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
1Thessalonians 4:15 For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
1Thessalonians 4:16 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:
1Thessalonians 4:17 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.
1Thessalonians 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words.
Hi GISMYS.
The spellchecker wants to change your name to DISMAYS.
Congratulations on another featured thread.
Did you see all the fun we are having here?
I agree that we which are alive and remain shall be ""caught up"" together with them in the clouds.
But the "THEM" who have fallen asleep, that Jesus will bring with Him, is Jesus bringing them with Him from here to New Jerusalem?
Or bringing them FROM New Jerusalem to HERE with us?
And what do you think about Naomi's new avatar?
I think that it looks like a Saturn V Rocket blasting off in a cloud of fire into the Heavens.
Blood and fire and columns of smoke.
I found out it was painted by the artist Kume Bryant

Light upon a new detail every time you look.
I love the messy process of painting. I aim to lift spirits with colors and subjects that give joy. My works are done with bright, vibrant and uplifting colors into positive, hopeful, joyful, dreamy, and happy paintings in a loose style. I hope that the viewers see and feel the freedom in my art by its brush strokes, and the mingling and interacting colors.

I found it fast and easy using my old XP version of Firefox that has the add-on: "search image on tineye".
Simply right click the image and select "search image", and voilà.
