1 Thess 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 that are alive, that are left, shall together with them be caught up in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
1 Corinthian 15:51-54 - Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, (die physically) but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
1 JOHN -17 - Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him. For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world. And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever.
WILL YOU BE READY FOR THE TRANSITION-OR WILL YOU BE LOVING THIS UNGODLY WORLD
Process of change: a process or period in which something undergoes a change and passes from one state, stage, form, or activity to another.[1]
Luke 21:36-Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.
· Worthy is fully deserving something.
John 14:1-4-Let not your heart be troubled. Ye believe in God; believe also in Me.
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.

1 Corinthian 15:51-54 - Behold, I tell you a mystery: We all shall not sleep, (die physically) but we shall all be changed, in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump: for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed. For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. But when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall come to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory.
Death is swallowed up in Victory – Death representing this corruptible body will be swallowed up with immortality. The victory that we as God’s children can look forward to is when death is defeated by life and we transition from the corruptible sphere to the incorruptible sphere.
Ephesian 5:25-27 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself up for it;that he might sanctify it, having cleansed it by the washing of water with the word, that he might present the church to himself a glorious church, not having spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.
Spot – Disharmony with one another. Blemish-Could be lieing
Wrinkle – Laziness towards the work of Christ
New international reader’s version Phil 3:20-21 20But we are citizens of heaven. And we can hardly wait for a Savior from there. He is the Lord Jesus Christ. 21He has the power to bring everything under his control. By his power he will change our earthly bodies. They will become like his glorious body.Col 3:4 - When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
James 5:7-8 - Be patient therefore, brethren, unto the coming of the Lord. Behold, the husbandman waiteth for the precious fruit of the earth, and hath long patience for it, until he receive the early and latter rain. Be ye also patient; stablish your hearts: for the coming of the Lord draweth nigh.
Worldwide English-New Testament -So brothers, take your troubles quietly and wait until the Lord comes. A farmer waits until the harvest grows from the ground. He waits for it a long time until it has had the first and second rain.
