THE CATCHING UP OF THE BODY OF CHRIST
is "MYSTERY DOCTRINE"

1 Corinthians 15:51 
Behold, I shew you a mystery;
We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 
​

​1 Thessalonians 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. 

1 Thessalonians 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. 

1 Thessalonians 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. 

1 Thessalonians 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: 

1 Thessalonians 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. 

1 Thessalonians 4:18 Wherefore comfort one another with these words. 


1 Corinthians 15:51 Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, 

1 Corinthians 15:52 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 Corinthians 15:53 For this corruptible must put on incorruption, and this mortal must put on immortality. 

1 Corinthians 15:54 So when this corruptible shall have put on incorruption, and this mortal shall have put on immortality, then shall be brought to pass the saying that is written, Death is swallowed up in victory. 

1 Corinthians 15:55 O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? 

1 Corinthians 15:56 The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. 

1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 

1 Corinthians 15:58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation
hath appeared to all men,

denying ungodliness and worldly lusts,
we should live soberly, righteously, and godly,
in this present world;

Looking for that blessed hope,
and the glorious appearing
of the great God and
​our Saviour Jesus Christ;

that he might redeem us from all iniquity,
and purify unto himself a peculiar people,
zealous of good works.

These things speak, and exhort,
and rebuke with all authority.
​Let no man despise thee.
