Key Scriptures (KJV)
“In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.”

Acts 1:11
“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. Wherefore comfort one another with these words.”

The Believer’s Blessed Hope
Believers Have a Living Hope
Those who belong to Christ do not face the future with despair. At His coming, the dead in Christ will rise, living believers will be gathered to Him, and His people will be with the Lord forever.
Be Ready and Faithful
Scripture calls believers to watch, pray, live holy lives, serve faithfully, and proclaim the gospel. Biblical readiness is not date-setting; it is steadfast obedience to Christ today.
Comfort One Another
Teaching about Christ’s return should strengthen hope and encourage faithful living. God will judge evil, make all things new, and dwell with His redeemed people forever.
